Pressure Washing

Green algae, black mould and grime blasted away from patios, paths, driveways and decking. Surfaces restored and made safe again.

Restored Surfaces That Look Like New

Cornwall's damp Atlantic climate creates perfect conditions for green algae, black mould and lichen to build up on hard surfaces. Patios, paths and driveways that were once bright and clean become green, slippery and unsightly within a season or two. It is one of the most common problems for Cornish homeowners.

Professional pressure washing cuts through years of built-up grime in a matter of hours and the transformation is remarkable. What looked like it needed replacing often just needs a thorough clean. We use powerful commercial-grade pressure washers alongside appropriate detergents to restore surfaces to a clean safe condition.

Whether it is a small patio you want to enjoy again or a long driveway that has turned green, we can help. The results speak for themselves and customers are always amazed at the difference a professional clean makes.

Why Pressure Washing is Essential in Cornwall

Cornwall receives some of the highest rainfall in England combined with mild temperatures that rarely drop below freezing. This creates ideal conditions for biological growth on hard surfaces throughout the year.

Green algae and black mould are not just unsightly. They make surfaces genuinely dangerous in wet weather. Patios and paths can become as slippery as ice when they have a film of algae on them. Falls on slippery surfaces are a real hazard especially for older residents.

Regular pressure washing every one to two years keeps surfaces safe, extends their lifespan and maintains the look of your property. It is one of the most cost-effective improvements you can make to your home's exterior.

Pressure Washing FAQ

In Cornwall, most outdoor hard surfaces benefit from a professional wash every one to two years due to the damp climate. High traffic driveways and north-facing patios that stay damp may need more regular attention. We will advise after assessing your surfaces.

When done correctly with the right pressure and technique, professional pressure washing will not damage sound surfaces. We adjust our approach depending on the surface type. We are careful with older or more delicate materials and will advise if we have any concerns before starting.

Yes. We have experience cleaning all surface types including block paving, pattern imprinted concrete, natural stone and standard paving slabs. Each requires slightly different techniques and pressures which we apply based on the specific surface.

Not necessarily. As long as we have access to a water supply and the areas to be cleaned, we can often work while you are out. We will confirm the requirements when you book and arrange everything to make the process as convenient as possible for you.
