Patio Pressure Washing Process

How We Clean Without Damaging

First, we assess your patio’s material and condition. Different concrete surfaces need different approaches—what works for a sealed patio can damage an unsealed one.

We pre-treat stubborn stains and apply cleaning solutions that break down organic growth at the root level. This isn’t just blasting everything with high pressure and hoping for the best.

The actual cleaning uses the right pressure for your specific surface. Too much pressure damages concrete and creates those ugly “tiger stripes” you see on poorly cleaned patios. We protect your plants and outdoor furniture throughout the process.

Pressure Washing Patios and Walkways

What's Included in Your Service

Your patio cleaning covers the entire concrete surface, including those hard-to-reach corners where moss loves to grow. We clean the joints between pavers and remove weeds growing through cracks.

Walkways and connecting concrete surfaces get the same thorough treatment. In Stuarts Draft’s climate, where humidity and shade create perfect conditions for algae growth, this comprehensive approach makes a huge difference.

We also clean and protect surrounding areas. Your outdoor furniture gets moved safely, plants get covered, and any overspray is immediately addressed. You’re not dealing with cleaning chemical residue on your deck chairs or dead plants the next week.

How often should I have my concrete patio pressure washed?

Most patios in Stuarts Draft need professional cleaning every 12-18 months, depending on shade coverage and foot traffic. Patios under trees or in heavily shaded areas collect organic matter faster and may need annual cleaning. You’ll know it’s time when you start seeing dark streaks, green discoloration, or slippery spots when the surface is wet. Don’t wait until the buildup is so thick that it requires aggressive cleaning methods. Regular maintenance cleaning is gentler on your concrete and more cost-effective than letting years of buildup accumulate. It also prevents permanent staining that can’t be removed even with professional equipment.
Professional pressure washing, done correctly, won’t damage properly installed concrete. The key is using the right pressure setting and technique for your specific surface type and condition. We protect all surrounding vegetation during the cleaning process. We cover plants, redirect overspray, and use biodegradable cleaning solutions that won’t harm your landscaping. DIY pressure washing is where most damage occurs—homeowners often use too much pressure or the wrong nozzle settings. Professional equipment includes surface cleaners that distribute pressure evenly and prevent the “tiger striping” that damages concrete appearance.
Most residential patios take 2-4 hours to clean thoroughly, depending on size and condition. This includes setup, pre-treatment, cleaning, and post-cleaning inspection. You can typically walk on your patio immediately after cleaning, but it’s best to wait 24 hours before placing furniture back to allow complete drying. This prevents furniture legs from leaving marks on the clean surface. The cleaning process uses water, so expect some runoff during the service. We control water flow to prevent flooding and ensure proper drainage away from your home’s foundation.
Professional cleaning uses commercial-grade equipment that provides consistent pressure and coverage. Home pressure washers often lack the power to remove deep stains or the surface cleaners that prevent streaking. Experience matters enormously. Professionals know how to adjust pressure for different concrete types, which cleaning solutions work for specific stains, and how to protect surrounding areas effectively. The results speak for themselves—professional cleaning typically lasts longer because it removes buildup at the root level rather than just surface cleaning. You also avoid the risk of damaging your concrete with incorrect technique or pressure settings.
Yes, we provide a three-year guarantee on our cleaning work. If organic growth returns prematurely, we’ll return to address the issue at no additional charge. This guarantee reflects our confidence in our cleaning process and products. We don’t just blast surfaces clean—we treat the root causes of organic growth to provide longer-lasting results. The guarantee covers the cleaning work itself, not damage from normal wear, new stains, or changes to the surface after cleaning. We’ll explain exactly what’s covered during your initial consultation.
Remove or secure any lightweight outdoor furniture, decorations, or potted plants from the patio area. Heavy furniture can usually stay—we’ll work around it or move it temporarily during cleaning. Clear any debris like leaves, toys, or equipment from the surface. This allows us to focus on deep cleaning rather than basic debris removal, making your service more efficient. Ensure we have access to water and electrical outlets if needed. Let us know about any specific problem areas or stains you’re concerned about—this helps us bring the right equipment and cleaning solutions for your particular situation.
