Slippery green patio, weeds sprouting through the block paving, black dots peppering the sandstone – Merrow driveways, terraces, paths and decks pressure washed with the setting dialled to each surface, plus an optional inhibitor to slow the green’s return.
Outdoor hard surfaces take a beating under Merrow’s trees. Leaf litter stains paving tea-brown, algae turns shady patios into an ice rink after rain, weeds root into every joint and lichen leaves stubborn black specks that a garden hose will not touch. Our jet washing in Merrow brings driveways, patios, footpaths, steps, decking and low garden walls close to the shade they were when first laid, and makes them safe to walk on again.
Every material wants different handling. Block paving can take a firm clean, after which the joints may need re-sanding. Natural sandstone and limestone need a gentler hand so the face is not etched. Porcelain responds to a moderate pressure and a good surface cleaner. Tarmac and resin-bound driveways need care so loose stones and binder are not disturbed, and timber decking needs a light touch along the grain to avoid furring. Pressure washing is only part of it; we also lift moss and weeds from the gaps and, if you like, finish with a biocide that keeps green growth and black spot at bay for longer. Your neighbours’ cars and windows are protected from splashback, and we rinse the area down when we finish.

The hardstanding around Merrow homes spends a lot of its life in shade. Gardens on the slopes below Merrow Downs, and around Merrow Woods and Boxgrove, are framed by tall beech, oak and yew that drip onto patios long after the rain stops. Damp, shaded paving is exactly what algae and moss want, so north-facing terraces here can turn green within a single winter. Fallen leaves sitting on stone or block paving also leave brown tannin marks that deepen if left for weeks.
Driveway styles across Merrow reflect the age of the houses. Many of the interwar homes along Epsom Road have long concrete or tarmac drives, often with a block-paved apron added later, and the joints in that block paving fill quickly with weeds. Post-war houses on Bushy Hill and around Merrow Park tend to have shorter drives and smaller patios, many re-laid with porcelain or Indian sandstone in recent years. Larger detached homes near Guildford Golf Club often have generous terraces, steps and garden walls where moss and lichen settle in the cracks.
We pressure wash driveways, patios and paths throughout Merrow in GU1 and GU4. Most jobs are best tackled in spring, to clear winter growth before the summer, or in early autumn, once the garden has dried out but before the leaves come down.
From checking the surface to the final rinse, every stage is tailored to what you have underfoot.
We check whether it is sandstone, porcelain, block paving, tarmac, resin or timber, look at its condition and joints, and agree with you which areas are being cleaned.
Weeds are pulled from joints, edges are scraped out, and thick moss is removed before washing, so the jet washer is not just pushing debris around the garden.
We use a rotary surface cleaner and pressure wand set for that material, working methodically to avoid tiger striping and to keep splashback off walls, windows and cars.
Everything gets a final rinse, dry block paving can have its joints re-filled, and if you want it, a biocidal wash goes down to hold off fresh algae, moss and black spot.

If it is hard and outside, we can usually clean it. Typical jobs around Merrow include:
For anything delicate, such as soft natural stone or older decking, we will explain the lower-pressure approach we plan to use before we begin.
We quote each job individually rather than per square metre on a generic scale. The price reflects:
A few photos of the driveway or patio, with something in shot for scale, usually let us price it without a visit.
We can clean it back and apply a biocide that slows algae, moss and black spot returning. Shady patios under beech and oak, which are common in Merrow, will always be more prone to regrowth than sunny ones, but treatment noticeably extends the time between cleans.
Not if the pressure is set correctly. An over-enthusiastic jet can score sandstone, so the machine is turned down and a rotary cleaning head that spreads the force evenly. Black spot lichen often needs treatment as well, which we can apply after washing.
A deep clean inevitably flushes out a little of the sand between blocks. Once the surface has dried, we can brush in kiln-dried sand to refill the joints, locking the pavers tightly and leaving weeds less room to settle.
Yes, with care. Resin and tarmac need a gentler approach so the binder and loose aggregate are not disturbed. A softer setting and a rotary head take off algae, tyre marks and grime without damaging the surface.
Water runs to the lowest point, so on a sloping drive we work from the top down and steer runoff towards a drain or gully. We take care not to wash debris onto the pavement or road, and we sweep the area afterwards.
Not at all. Leave an outdoor tap and socket we can use, park the cars somewhere else for the day, and we can get on with it unsupervised, messaging you photographs of the finished surface.
