Professional Pressure Washing Services in Worcestershire

What Is Pressure Washing and What Does It Remove?

Pressure washing (sometimes referred to as jet washing) is the process of cleaning exterior hard surfaces using controlled water pressure, often combined with specialist cleaning solutions, to remove built-up contaminants.

In Worcestershire, exterior surfaces are regularly exposed to damp weather, organic debris and everyday use. Over time, this leads to a build-up of staining and growth that cannot be removed through basic rinsing or DIY cleaning.

Our pressure washing service is designed to remove:

• Algae and green growth, particularly in shaded or north-facing areas

• Moss and lichen, which commonly embed themselves in joints and textured surfaces

• Black spot and organic staining on paving and stone

• Traffic film and ground-in dirt on driveways and access routes

• Mud, soil and general grime from footfall and garden use

• Rust staining, often caused by metal furniture, fertilisers, water run-off or iron deposits

• Surface discolouration from prolonged exposure to the elements

Some staining, particularly rust marks and deep organic growth, cannot always be fully removed with water pressure alone. In these cases, we may use suitable cleaning chemicals to help break down and lift the staining safely before or during the pressure washing process. This allows for improved results while minimising the need for excessive pressure.

Our Pressure Washing Services

We offer a comprehensive range of pressure washing and exterior surface cleaning services across Worcestershire. Each job is assessed individually so the correct method can be used for the surface type and level of contamination.

Driveway Cleaning

Driveways are one of the most common areas we pressure wash. Over time they collect traffic film, moss, algae, oil residue and general grime, which can significantly reduce kerb appeal and create slippery conditions.

We clean a wide range of driveway surfaces, including:

• Block paving

• Pattern imprinted concrete

• Plain concrete

• Stone and paved driveways

Where block paving is cleaned, we take care to protect the surface and joints. If required and appropriate, we can discuss re-sanding once the driveway has fully dried to help stabilise the blocks and improve the finished appearance.

Patio Cleaning

Patios are particularly prone to green algae and organic staining due to damp conditions and limited sunlight. Left untreated, this build-up can make surfaces slippery and visually unappealing.

Our pressure washing service is suitable for:

• Concrete slabs

• Natural stone patios

• Porcelain paving (cleaned using surface-appropriate methods)

Pressure levels and, where necessary, cleaning solutions are adjusted to remove stubborn growth while protecting the surface.

Paths, Steps and Walkways

Paths, steps and entrances often suffer from heavy foot traffic and organic growth, especially in shaded or enclosed areas. Pressure washing improves safety and appearance by reducing slip hazards and restoring a clean finish.

Walls, Brickwork and Exterior Hard Surfaces

We also provide pressure washing for selected vertical and hard landscaping surfaces such as:

• Garden and boundary walls

• Brick and masonry surfaces

• Exterior hard landscaping features

Some surfaces require a gentler approach or chemical pre-treatment to avoid damage. We always assess and advise accordingly.

Commercial Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing services are available for commercial and shared properties, including:

• Forecourts and entrances

• Outdoor seating and communal areas

• Walkways and access routes

• Managed residential blocks and commercial premises

Commercial work can be arranged to minimise disruption, with one-off or ongoing cleaning options available.

While pressure washing is highly effective, water pressure alone does not always remove certain types of staining. In some cases, professional cleaning chemicals allow for improved results with less aggressive pressure.

Cleaning solutions may be used to:

• Break down algae, moss and lichen

• Lift deep organic staining

• Treat black spots on paving

• Reduce the appearance of rust staining

• Improve overall cleaning consistency

All products are chosen based on surface type and staining level. Chemicals are used as part of a controlled process to support pressure washing, not replace it.

The Role of Cleaning Chemicals in Pressure Washing

Our Pressure Washing Process

Every pressure washing job follows a structured process to ensure safe, consistent results.

1. Assessment of the surface and staining

2. Preparation and removal of loose debris

3. Pre or post treatment with cleaning chemicals where required

4. Controlled pressure washing using professional equipment

5. Thorough rinse and inspection

6. Aftercare and maintenance advice where appropriate

This approach delivers better and longer-lasting results than basic jet washing.

Benefits of Regular Pressure Washing

• Prevent Damage: Regular cleaning removes harmful substances like mould, mildew, and algae, which can cause long-term damage if left untreated.

• Save Money: By maintaining your exterior surfaces, you can avoid costly repairs and extend the life of your property’s materials.

• Healthier Environment: Removing mould and mildew not only protects your property but also creates a healthier environment for your family or employees.

Why Professional Pressure Washing Is Better Than DIY Cleaning

DIY pressure washers can remove light dirt, but incorrect use often causes uneven cleaning, surface damage or jointing loss.

Professional pressure washing offers:

• Correct pressure for each surface

• Improved removal of organic and ingrained staining

• Consistent results across the entire area

• Reduced risk of surface damage

• Longer-lasting cleanliness

Using chemicals where appropriate also reduces reliance on excessive pressure.

Do you always use chemicals?

No. Chemicals are only used where they improve results or reduce the need for excessive pressure.
