Pressure Washing That Restores Every Surface.
Driveways, patios, paths and decking all take a beating from moss, algae, weeds and years of ground-in dirt. We clean it properly, treat it to slow regrowth, and can seal and even recolour the surface for a finish that lasts.
A Dirty Surface Is More Than Just Untidy.
South Wales weather keeps driveways, patios and decking damp for months at a time, perfect conditions for moss, algae and weeds to take hold.
Slip Risk
Algae and moss turn smooth surfaces slick within weeks, especially on patios, paths and decking used every day.
Weed & Moss Growth
Joints between blocks and slabs trap seeds and spores, letting weeds and moss establish and spread across the whole surface.
Staining & Discolouration
Oil, tannin from leaves and general grime build up year on year, leaving surfaces looking tired and patchy.
Kerb Appeal & Value
Your driveway and patio are some of the first things people see. A clean, sealed surface lifts the whole property.
Thorough Cleaning, Done Properly.
Survey & Quote
We assess the surface type, size and condition on site, then give you a clear fixed price. No surprises.
Full Pressure Wash
Every surface is washed to the correct pressure for its material. Decking always gets a gentler touch than block paving.
Weed & Moss Treatment
Joints and edges are treated to clear existing growth and slow how quickly it returns.
Seal & Protect (Optional)
A Smartseal treatment locks in joint sand, protects against staining and UV fading, in the natural colour or a shade of your choice.
Driveways, Patios, Paths & Decking.
Different surfaces need different pressure, technique and after-care. We adjust our approach to suit each one.

Why We Don’t Blast Every Surface the Same Way.
Block paving and concrete can take a firm, high-pressure clean. Timber decking can’t. Too much pressure splinters the grain, strips protective coatings and shortens its life.
We match pressure and technique to the material every time, so hard surfaces come up properly clean and softer surfaces like decking are treated with the care they need.
Before & After.
Pressure Washing Questions, Answered.
How long does sealing last?
A Smartseal treatment typically protects a driveway or patio for several years before it needs reapplying, depending on footfall, vehicle use and weather exposure. We’ll give you an honest estimate for your surface during the survey.
Will pressure washing damage my joints or decking?
No. We match the pressure and method to the surface. Block paving and concrete take a firm clean; decking and softer surfaces are washed at lower pressure with a technique that protects the grain and any existing coating.
Do I need to do anything before you arrive?
Just move any furniture, pots or vehicles off the area if you can. We bring everything else and clear up fully before we leave.
How much does pressure washing cost?
It depends on the surface type, size, condition and which treatment option you choose, so we quote each job individually. Quotations are always free with no obligation.
Which areas do you cover?
We’re based in Newport and cover homes and businesses across South Wales, including Cwmbran, Cardiff, Caerphilly and the surrounding towns.
