Driveway, Patio and Path Cleaning That Restores Safety and Appeal
Eliminate slippery surfaces and bring your outdoor areas back to life with professional water blasting.
Service Overview
Restore Safety and Beauty to Your Outdoor Concrete Surfaces
Are your driveways, patios, or paths covered in slippery moss and algae? Northland’s humid, subtropical climate creates perfect conditions for organic growth on concrete surfaces. This growth doesn’t just look unsightly—it creates serious safety hazards. Slippery moss and algae cause falls and injuries, particularly for children, elderly family members, and visitors.
Beyond safety concerns, dirty concrete surfaces significantly impact your property’s curb appeal and value. Stained driveways, moss-covered paths, and grimy patios make even well-maintained homes look neglected. This affects both your enjoyment of outdoor spaces and your property’s market value.
Our professional driveway, patio, and path cleaning services use high-pressure water blasting to eliminate moss, algae, dirt, oil stains, and years of accumulated grime. Unlike DIY pressure washers that lack sufficient power and often leave streaky results, our commercial-grade equipment delivers consistent, professional results across large areas.
We understand how different concrete surfaces respond to water blasting. Our trained team adjusts pressure and technique based on your surface type—whether standard concrete, decorative pavers, exposed aggregate, or sealed surfaces—ensuring optimal results without damage to the concrete or surrounding areas.

Driveway, Patio & Path Cleaning FAQs
Any questions?
How often should I clean my driveway and paths?
Frequency depends on exposure, surrounding vegetation, and moss or algae growth. In Northland’s humid climate, we recommend professional cleaning once or twice a year. Shaded or tree-surrounded properties may need more frequent cleaning, while sunny areas may require less. We provide personalised recommendations during your free consultation.
Will water blasting damage my concrete or pavers?
No, when performed by experienced professionals. We adjust pressure based on surface type—higher for standard concrete, lower for decorative pavers or sealed surfaces. DIY attempts often cause damage. Our 10+ years of experience ensures safe, effective results.
Can you remove oil stains?
Yes, most oil stains can be removed or significantly reduced. Fresh stains are easier to treat, but we use specialised pre-treatment solutions for older or stubborn marks. While very old stains may not fully disappear, we typically achieve dramatic improvement.
What surfaces can you clean?
We clean all hard surfaces including standard and decorative concrete, concrete pavers, brick, asphalt, sealed surfaces, pool surrounds, tennis courts, retaining walls, and more. Each surface is treated with the correct pressure and technique for safe, effective cleaning.
How long does cleaning take?
A single-car driveway typically takes 1–2 hours, while larger areas or patios and paths may take 3–4 hours. Weather affects scheduling; dry days are preferred for optimal results.
Should I seal my concrete after cleaning?
Sealing is recommended for long-term protection, preventing moisture, moss, algae, and stains while enhancing appearance. We can recommend trusted contractors; the best time to seal is shortly after cleaning when surfaces are dry.
Do you clean commercial properties?
Yes, including driveways, car parks, retail centres, office buildings, and industrial facilities. Work can be scheduled off-hours to minimise disruption. Customised quotes are available.
What other services do you offer?
We also provide house washing, roof cleaning and treatments, gutter cleaning, deck and fence restoration, window cleaning, solar panel cleaning, and GutterFoam installation across all Northland, including Kerikeri, Whangarei, Bay of Islands, and the Far North.
