What's Included in Professional Cleaning

Complete patio and walkway restoration using methods that won’t damage your surfaces. Red clay stain removal that actually works—not just surface-level cleaning that looks good for a week.

Pre-treatment of problem areas where stains have set in deep. Professional-grade equipment calibrated for your specific surface materials. Post-cleaning protection advice to help your investment last longer.

In Keswick, this means understanding how Virginia’s clay-heavy soil affects different surface types. Stone patios need different care than concrete walkways. Older surfaces require gentler approaches than newer installations. We adjust our methods based on what your property actually needs, not what’s easiest for us.

How do you remove red clay stains from concrete patios?

Red clay stains require specific pressure settings and pre-treatment to avoid just pushing the stain deeper into the concrete’s porous surface. We start with a specialized cleaning solution that breaks down the clay particles, then use controlled pressure washing at the right PSI for your concrete’s age and condition. The key is understanding that red clay bonds differently than regular dirt. Too much pressure spreads it around. Too little leaves it embedded. We’ve spent thirty years perfecting the technique for Virginia’s specific soil conditions, which is why we can remove stains that other companies just lighten.

Will pressure washing damage my patio or walkway surfaces?

Professional pressure washing with proper technique and equipment settings won’t damage your surfaces—but improper DIY attempts absolutely can. We adjust pressure based on your surface material, age, and condition. Newer concrete can handle higher pressure than older, weathered surfaces. Stone, brick, and decorative concrete each require different approaches. We’re certified by industry organizations specifically because we understand these differences. The damage usually comes from rental equipment used at wrong settings by people who don’t know what they’re doing. That’s expensive to fix and completely avoidable.

How often should patios and walkways be professionally cleaned?

In Keswick’s environment, most patios and walkways benefit from professional cleaning every 12-18 months. The red clay soil and Virginia humidity create conditions where organic growth and staining happen faster than in other regions. High-traffic areas or surfaces under trees may need attention annually. Properties with proper drainage and less tree coverage can often go longer. We’ll give you an honest assessment based on your specific situation, not a sales pitch for unnecessary services. Regular maintenance is always less expensive than restoration.

What's the difference between pressure washing and soft washing for patios?

Pressure washing uses higher water pressure to remove dirt, stains, and buildup from hard surfaces like concrete and stone. Soft washing uses lower pressure with specialized cleaning solutions for more delicate surfaces or when dealing with organic growth. For most Keswick patios and walkways, pressure washing is the right approach because you’re dealing with embedded clay stains and concrete surfaces that can handle the pressure. However, older brick or decorative stone may require soft washing techniques to avoid damage. We determine the right method based on your actual surfaces, not our preference.

Do you guarantee your patio and walkway cleaning results?

We guarantee our workmanship and that we’ll use the proper techniques for your surfaces. Some extremely old stains or surface damage may not be completely removable—we’ll tell you that upfront rather than promise impossible results. What we can guarantee is that we’ll use thirty years of experience to get the best possible outcome for your specific situation. If we miss something or don’t meet our own standards, we come back and make it right. That’s how we’ve built relationships that last decades in this community.

How long does patio and walkway pressure washing take?

Most residential patio and walkway projects take 2-4 hours depending on size, condition, and complexity. Simple concrete patios go faster than intricate stone work or heavily stained surfaces that need extra attention. We don’t rush the job to fit more appointments into a day. Red clay stains and embedded dirt require time to treat properly. We’d rather take the time to do it right than leave you with results that disappoint. You’ll know the timeline upfront so you can plan accordingly.
