Frequently Asked Questions About Jet Washing
Is jet washing safe for all surfaces?
Professional jet washing is safe when performed correctly with appropriate pressure settings and techniques. We assess each surface type and adjust our equipment accordingly. Delicate surfaces like soft sandstone, old pointing, or painted render require lower pressures and specialist techniques. Our experience ensures effective cleaning without damage to your property’s materials.
How often should I have my driveway and patio cleaned?
Most driveways and patios benefit from annual professional cleaning, though this varies based on usage, tree coverage, and local conditions. Areas with heavy tree cover or prone to moss growth may require bi-annual cleaning. Regular cleaning prevents deep staining, maintains safety by removing slippery moss and algae, and preserves the lifespan of your surfaces.
Do you use chemicals in your cleaning process?
We use biodegradable, environmentally-friendly cleaning solutions where necessary to break down stubborn stains, oil marks, and organic growth. These pre-treatment solutions are safe for plants and pets when used correctly. For routine cleaning, we often use hot water and appropriate pressure alone. All waste water is managed responsibly in accordance with environmental regulations.
Can you clean my roof tiles and gutters?
Yes, we provide comprehensive roof and gutter cleaning services. This includes moss removal from roof tiles, gutter clearance, and cleaning of fascias and soffits. Roof cleaning requires specialist equipment and safety procedures, which our experienced team handles professionally. Clean gutters and roofs improve water drainage and prevent costly damage to your property.
Will jet washing damage my plants or landscaping?
We take careful precautions to protect your landscaping during cleaning. This includes covering delicate plants, pre-watering areas to dilute any cleaning solutions, and directing spray away from planted areas. Our team is experienced in working around established gardens and takes pride in leaving your landscaping undisturbed whilst achieving excellent cleaning results.
Do you offer regular maintenance contracts?
Yes, we offer flexible maintenance contracts for both residential and commercial properties. Regular cleaning schedules can include annual driveway and patio cleaning, seasonal gutter clearance, and building exterior maintenance. Maintenance contracts ensure your property always looks its best whilst providing cost savings compared to individual cleaning visits.
