To some people, a driveway is simply a convenient place to park their car. It doesn't really matter how it looks, as it serves a practical purpose only.
However, to those who take pride in their homes, it does matter! A driveway ties the surrounding land to the property and any other buildings, such as garages. In many ways, it reflects the personality and character of the homeowners.
It doesn't have to be fancy, but it should look clean and tidy.
The trouble is that driveways soon become caked in dirt, organic matter and all kinds of muck that makes them look unappealing and unsightly. And if you have invested in a block paving driveway, this is very disappointing.
So, what's the best way to get your driveway clean? The experts at RenWash have the answer!
We can help to restore your beautiful driveway to its former glory using a range of tried and tested methods.
Aside from the reasons mentioned above, leaving your driveway in a poor state will eventually weaken it. Coloured blocks will fade, weeds will cause cracks to appear, and the structure may begin to disintegrate.
In the end, you will face a large repair bill to have your driveway fixed.
Also, a grimy driveway affects the aesthetic appeal of your property, which will reduce its kerb appeal and value.
Ideally, it's best to book a driveway cleaning session at least once a year. This keeps it looking in great shape and reduces the risk of damage or deterioration.
It's also wise to sweep it down every couple of months and maybe use a driveway/patio cleaner liquid solution once in a while.
If you do this, your driveway will stay clean and bright, free from oil stains, dirt and weeds.
RenWash driveway cleaning services handle all types of hard surfaces, including the following:
Yes, it is perfectly reasonable for homeowners to want to try cleaning their own driveways.
However, you won't get the same flawless results as when a professional cleaning company does the job for you. Also, some driveways require specialist cleaning and can be permanently damaged if not handled correctly.
While some people might think that using a pressure washer is a bit of fun, it soon becomes tedious. It makes a lot of mess and takes hours to make a difference to the surface.
That's usually because the equipment isn't as powerful or efficient as that which is used by professionals. Even so, if you pressure wash some driveways there's a chance that you'll dislodged blocks or crack the surface.
Our advice is: leave it to the experts!
Driveway cleaning is only one of the professional services that we offer at RenWash. This means that we invest in the very best equipment and train our highly-experienced staff to use it competently and efficiently.
Here's a basic outline of a typical driveway cleaning job - block paving, in this case:
All moveable items (plant pots, garden/patio furniture, ornaments, etc.) are removed from the area. The entire surface is swept clean and all heavy debris is scraped away first.
A flat surface cleaner is then used to deep clean the whole driveway.
Biocides are applied to any organic growth, like moss, lichen, fungi, algae and mould. This not only kills it, but slows down the chances of regrowth in future.
The surface is cleaned again to shift any stubborn grease and oil stains, and a turbo lance may be used to create sharp edges to the perimeter and ensure that all stains are removed effectively.
The surface is rinsed down to remove all debris, residue and chemicals used in the cleaning process.
The area is inspected to ensure that the job has been done properly, then tidied up. All items that were removed are returned to their usual places.
Re-sanding the joints on a block paving driveway is an essential part of the process, but it must never take place while the driveway is still wet. Also, it's essential that the right sand is used!
This is a great way of blasting out moss, algae and weed growth from your driveway and for shifting the muck!
