Pressure washing is a powerful cleaning method that effectively revitalises the appearance of your driveway and patio by removing built-up grime, weeds, and stains. As summer 2024 approaches, ensuring that these outdoor spaces are clean not only enhances their aesthetic appeal but also extends their longevity and prepares them for the busy season ahead. Here’s how to achieve the best results with pressure washing for different types of surfaces.
Why Pressure Wash Your Driveway and Patio?
Pressure washing not only boosts the curb appeal of your property but also prevents the buildup of harmful substances that can degrade your driveway and patio materials over time. Removing weeds, moss, and algae regularly can prevent these growths from causing structural damage, such as pitting and cracks in the surface.
How to Effectively Pressure Wash Your Surfaces
For Patio and Block Paving Slabs:
Start by removing any large debris and sweeping the surface. Apply a suitable cleaning solution that can help lift stains and kill off moss or algae. When using a pressure washer, hold the nozzle about 12 inches from the surface and use a sweeping motion to clean evenly. Be cautious around the edges and joints to prevent dislodging the sand or mortar.
Seasonal Maintenance Tips:
Spring is the ideal time to pressure wash your driveway and patio, clearing the winter debris and preparing for summer use. However, a second round of pressure washing in late autumn can help remove the summer’s dirt and prepare the surface for winter by preventing moisture retention and freeze-thaw damage.
