Why It Matters

Wand-only pressure washing leaves streaks. We don't use it on driveways.

A surface cleaner is a rotating spinner enclosed in a hood, keeps consistent distance from the concrete and overlaps every pass. It's the only way to get an even result on a flat surface. Wand-only pressure washing always leaves streaks visible at low sun angles.

For oil stains and heavier discoloration, we pre-treat with a degreaser before the surface-cleaner pass. For algae on shaded sections, we add a low-dose soft-wash treatment so it doesn't return in 6 weeks.

What's Included

Surfaces we clean.

  • Poured concrete: surface cleaner plus degreaser as needed
  • Brick pavers: surface cleaner at lower pressure, optional sand re-fill
  • Bluestone and flagstone: soft wash, since high pressure can fracture
  • Stamped concrete: reduced pressure, with resealing recommended after
  • Asphalt: light surface cleaning only

Most single-car driveways run $150 to $225. Two-car or longer driveways $250 to $400.

FAQs

Answers to the questions we hear most about driveway and concrete cleaning. Got another? Text us a quick photo.

What's the difference between soft washing and pressure washing?

Soft washing uses low water pressure (about the same as your garden hose) and a biodegradable detergent, the chemistry does the cleaning. Pressure washing uses high water pressure with no detergent. Soft wash for siding, roofs, painted surfaces, and anything porous. Pressure wash for concrete driveways, brick pavers, and stone. We pick the right method per surface.

Is the soft wash safe for my plants and pets?

Yes. Detergents are biodegradable and rinse out at low concentration. We wet down landscaping before applying anything and rinse again when we finish. We've never lost a plant. Tell us about anything specific you're worried about when you book.

Can you give me a phone quote?

We prefer photos because we can see what you're describing. Phone quotes tend to under- or over-estimate. Texting photos takes 30 seconds and we'll come back with an actual number.

How quickly can you book me in?

Most jobs booked Monday hit the calendar by Friday. Peak season (June–August) we book 1–2 weeks out. Off-peak (April, May, September, October) we usually have same-week slots.

Do you take credit cards?

Yes, credit cards, ACH bank transfer, check. Payment due on completion unless we've arranged net terms for recurring commercial.

What if it rains?

Soft wash works fine in light rain. Heavy rain or temperatures below 40°F, we reschedule, usually within a few days. We text you the night before to confirm.

Still have questions?

Text us a few photos and we'll send a flat quote, usually within an hour.
