Professional Patio Cleaning & Restoration
in Swanley & Kent
Trusted local specialists providing pressure washing and algae treatments.

Have you noticed those tiny, ink-like splats on your Indian Sandstone that refuse to move no matter how much you scrub? That's lichen, commonly known as 'black spot,' and it actually roots itself into the pores of the stone. A standard DIY jet wash often does more harm than good by stripping the surface without actually killing the spores. We take a different approach. By using professional-grade biocide treatments and soft washing techniques, we don't just wash away the surface grime—we treat the stone to kill the organic growth at its source. This means your patio stays cleaner for much longer, and more importantly, it stops being a skating rink every time it rains. It's about making your garden safe for the kids and grandkids, as much as it is about the look.

Not all patios are created equal, and they certainly shouldn't be cleaned the same way. Imagine using a heavy-duty industrial blaster on delicate Porcelain—it's a recipe for disaster. We've seen all sorts of stonework around Swanley and Sevenoaks, from the rugged charm of Yorkstone to the sleek finish of modern Porcelain paving. Each material needs a specific touch. For natural stone like Indian Sandstone, we focus on removing deep-seated stains while preserving the stone's unique texture. For contemporary slabs, we use specialist cleaning agents that lift dirt without scratching the surface. We'll always assess your specific setup first, ensuring we use the right balance of pressure and cleaning solutions to get the best result without risking a single chip or crack.

Is your patio's pointing starting to crumble away? When the grout between your slabs fails, it's an open invitation for weeds and ants to move in. As part of our restoration service, we can tackle those failing joints, using high-quality polymeric sand or resin-based mortars that look great and stand the test of time. Once everything is pristine, we often recommend a professional sealant. Think of it like a high-tech raincoat for your patio. Whether you want a 'wet look' that makes the colours pop or a natural matt finish that protects against oil stains and bird droppings, sealing helps maintain that 'just-finished' look for years. It's the difference between a quick tidy-up and a proper renovation that adds genuine kerb appeal to your property.
