Driveway Cleaning Service

Your concrete driveway works hard every day. It carries vehicles, sees foot traffic, weather, dirt, oil, rust stains, mildew and sometimes moss. Over time these things build up, making your driveway look dull, unsafe, and worn. Our Driveway Cleaning Service restores the appearance of your concrete, improves safety, and helps protect the surface from deteriorating.


What We Clean

  • Concrete driveways (non-sealed, raw or standard finish concrete)

  • Oil, grease, tire marks, car fluids and drips

  • Dirt, mud and road grime buildup

  • Mildew, mold, algae or organic growth in cracks and along edges

  • Rust stains, mineral deposits and water spots


Our Cleaning Process

  1. Inspection & Assessment
    We begin by examining your driveway surface to see condition, stain types and severity, damage or cracks, slope/drainage, and access. We note what kind of wear is present and what needs special attention.

  2. Surface Preparation & Protection
    We remove loose debris like leaves, dirt, loose gravel. We protect surrounding landscaping, plants and surfaces (walls, siding, shrubbery) from splash and runoff. We may pre-treat heavy stains like oil or rust with specialty cleaners to help break them down before deep cleaning.

  3. Pressure / Power Washing with Appropriate Pressure
    We use a pressure washer or surface cleaner with water pressure adjusted for concrete. The goal is strong enough to remove grime and embedded stains but without damaging the concrete surface or causing chipping. We make sure we control overspray and run-off carefully.

  4. Stain Treatment & Scrubbing
    For stubborn stains like oil or rust we use cleaners formulated for those problems. We may apply them first, allow dwell time, use stiff brushes or agitation locally, then follow with full wash.

  5. Rinse & Clean Off Residue
    We rinse thoroughly to remove all cleaner residue, loosened dirt and debris. Any residual cleaning agents left in pores can cause discoloration or streaking later so rinsing well matters.

  6. Drying & Final Inspection
    After cleaning, we let the driveway dry and check for any spots missed, deep stains, or areas needing repeat treatment. We walk through with you to ensure satisfaction.


Benefits You Will Get

  • Driveway looks clean, refreshed, brighter and well cared for

  • Stronger curb appeal enhances entire property appearance

  • Reduced slipping risks when driveway is free of algae, mildew or mold and not slick with grease or slime

  • Prevention of long-term damage. Dirt, organic growth, oil stains can penetrate and degrade the concrete over time if not removed. Cleaning protects integrity. 

  • Extended driveway lifespan since contaminants that cause breakdown are removed before damage advances. 


What to Expect

  • After cleaning driveway will look dramatically better; stains may lighten significantly even if some old ones cannot fully vanish depending on age and depth

  • Some areas (cracks, pores) may dry unevenly at first, color variation until fully dry

  • Cleaning may reveal small cracks or surface damage you did not notice before

  • Weather conditions (temperature, sun, rain) will affect drying and final appearance


How Often to Clean

  • Most concrete driveways benefit from cleaning once a year to prevent buildup from becoming hard to remove.

  • If your driveway is exposed to heavy traffic, oil drips, tree cover, or shady/moist areas you might need cleaning more often, possibly every 6-9 months.
