How much does pressure washing cost?2025-04-13T20:44:46+01:00

Every job is different, so we’ll measure up and provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the size and condition of the area. You’ll receive a full breakdown of costs for complete transparency.

What areas do you cover?2025-04-13T20:43:01+01:00

We’re based in Folkestone and cover Folkestone and the surrounding areas. We’re also expanding further across Kent. If you’re unsure if we reach your area, just get in touch.

Do I need to be home during the clean?2025-04-13T20:41:42+01:00

Not necessarily. As long as we can access the area safely, we can carry out the job while you’re out. We’ll confirm any access needs before the appointment.

How long does the cleaning process take?2025-04-14T08:12:38+01:00

Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the size and condition of the surface. We’ll give you a time estimate during your quote.

Is your service safe?2025-04-14T08:22:51+01:00

Yes – we use the correct pressure, professional equipment, and safe cleaning products to protect all surfaces, including concrete, decking, and block paving.

Do you use chemicals?2025-04-14T08:24:04+01:00

Yes – we use industry-approved, biodegradable chemicals like sodium hypochlorite (SH), biocide, and degreasers where needed. These are applied responsibly and effectively.

Can you remove oil stains or rust?2025-04-14T08:25:46+01:00

We use specialist degreasers and rust removers to treat most surface stains. Results can vary depending on how deep the stain has set.

What’s included in your service?2025-04-14T08:26:51+01:00

Our typical service includes:

  • Pre-treatment with professional cleaning solution
  • Pressure washing using a turbo nozzle or rotary surface cleaner
  • Rinse and post-treatment (e.g. biocide)
  • Optional re-sanding for block paving

We adjust this based on the surface type and its condition.

Can you remove black spots and lichen?2025-04-14T08:28:18+01:00

Yes – we apply a specialist pre-treatment that breaks down black spots, algae, and lichen before pressure washing to ensure a better finish.

Why not just use my own pressure washer?2025-04-14T08:30:16+01:00

Household machines like Karcher’s can’t match the power of our commercial equipment or the effectiveness of our chemical treatments. We tackle deeper grime and algae quickly and thoroughly – saving you time, hassle, and poor results.

Do I need to move anything before the clean?2025-04-14T08:42:32+01:00

We mainly focus on horizontal surfaces, but we can clean steps or small vertical areas depending on access and safety.

Do you need access to water or electricity?2025-04-14T08:43:17+01:00

We only need access to an outdoor tap. Our pressure washer is petrol-powered, so no electricity is needed.

Do you clean in winter?2025-04-14T12:33:06+01:00

Yes – we operate year-round. In colder weather, we adjust our approach as needed. We also offer winter salt spreading services to reduce slip risks on driveways and paths.

Yes — but we recommend keeping pets indoors during cleaning and moving delicate plants where possible. All treatments are applied carefully and rinsed thoroughly.

How soon can I use the surface after cleaning?2025-04-14T12:38:15+01:00

Please avoid walking on the surface for 4–6 hours after cleaning, especially if treatments like SH or biocide were used. If re-sanding or sealing was applied, allow 24 hours.

Are you the cheapest pressure washing service?2025-04-14T13:11:25+01:00
