Driveway cleaning Leeds
We all know what jet washing is. We have powerful but adjustable equipment that will jet wash away dirt and staining without any issues.
But what is soft washing? Soft washing is huge in America. It is basically cleaning without using the brute force of pressure. A great example of where soft washing would be more suitable is render cleaning. Rather than blasting the porous surface with high pressure, a cleaning product is applied using low pressure pumps and reach equipment making it safe and meaning the cleaning can be carried out without damage to the render or penetrating the substrate or around widows, sills or doors. The cleaning solution is rinsed with water leaving the surface clean.
We have invested in the equipment required to apply these products correctly. Remember, to get the best out of any product it must be applied correctly. Too much can cause damage, too little can be ineffective.
Now lets take it a step further. What if we used this process on a block driveway or a stone patio? The results are impressive. We have adopted the American soft wash process and combined it with our driveway cleaning service to get the absolute best clean possible.
The icing on the cake is that the cleaning solution is eco-friendly, it is completely biodegradable, and is completely pet and people safe.
A typical driveway cleaning job gets a full application of cleaning product, full jet washing and the finishing touch is an application of a control product which combats recolonisation and prolongs the clean finish.
All this comes for the same or less than an average jet wash or driveway cleaning service. And remember that we can help with re-sanding and sealing too.

A Typical Driveway Cleaning Job
From start to finish...
Lets take a look at a very typical driveway cleaning job. We received a website enquiry from a client in Leeds who searched 'driveway cleaning near me' and up popped our website. We arranged the free quote and found the client with a driveway in need of some attention. As you can see by the picture this was very dirty with moss and weeds growing everywhere.
Every job is measured and we look at things like drainage, water source and pressure and of course the surface that we are restoring. After explaining our cleaning process, winning the job with our competitive quote and arranging a treatment date we spray the drive with a total weed control a few days ahead if required.
On arrival we speak to our client and just go through the process with them again so they are happy with what we are doing and then all we need is the water source, all of our machinery runs using fuel fed pumps so there is no need for any outlets.
Not every job is the same. The type of surface and level of dirt or staining determines how we tackle the job. In this case the driveway cleaning is pretty straight forward and we start with an application of our cleaning solution to kill microorganisms and algae that cause the black and green staining and in some cases make the surface slippery.
The product works straight away and after a short time we get our Mosmatic surface cleaner and start up the pump and clean every square inch of the surface. This is when you can start to see the results of combining a product with the jet washing and the original condition of the stone or blocks starts to show through.
Once we are done with the driveway cleaning and the surface has had a good wash down we can apply our protective layer and if necessary we always brush sand back in where we have removed dirt from the gaps.
The driveway cleaning is complete and the blocks look brand new again. Another happy client.
