About this service

Paths and steps are the surfaces people actually walk on, and they are the ones that cause falls. A shaded side path, a set of concrete steps or a brick porch step under a tree can be lethal in a wet November, especially for older visitors.

This is a tidy, focused clean that is often added to a driveway or patio job but is just as worthwhile on its own. We clear the growth, clean the surface and the adjoining walls and edging, and leave the entrance looking cared for.

Part of Driveways & Patios. Rotary surface cleaning for driveways, patios, paths and decking, followed by re-sanding and optional Smartseal sealing so the finish lasts and the weeds stay away.

Why it matters

Small surfaces, big consequences

  • 01

    Algae on smooth concrete or stone steps is one of the most common causes of slips at home.

  • 02

    Moss lifts and loosens paving and works into the mortar of steps and walls.

  • 03

    A green, grimy path makes the whole approach to the house look neglected.

  • 04

    Boundary walls under hedges go green on the shaded face and stain the paving below.

State-of-the-art equipment

The kit that makes it safe and thorough

Professional equipment is only half of it — knowing which tool not to use on a surface is the other half.
  • Compact surface cleaner

    Narrow enough for side paths and step treads.

  • Pressure washer with adjustable lance

    Pressure reduced for brick and stone walls.

  • Moss and weed treatment

    Keeps the joints clear after the clean.
