Pressure Washing.

Hot-water surface cleaning for the surfaces that can take it.

For driveways, patios, walkways, and concrete that needs more than a soft wash.

Some surfaces are built for pressure — concrete drives, paver patios, brick walkways, retaining walls, the heavy-duty stuff that can shrug off a hot-water surface cleaner. For those, pressure washing is the right tool. We use a calibrated, hot-water surface cleaner that lifts oil, red Alabama clay, mildew, and decades of grime off concrete in a single pass — leaving an even, streak-free finish, not the zebra-striped mess pressure washing usually creates.

i.

Where pressure washing belongs

Driveways. Sidewalks. Pool decks. Brick patios. Retaining walls. Concrete pads. Stamped or stained concrete (with care). Garage floors. Curbs. Anywhere the surface is meant to take heavy-duty cleaning.

ii.

Where it doesn't

Vinyl siding. Painted siding. Asphalt shingles. Wood decks. Old mortar. Window seals. For those, soft washing — gentle pressure plus a cleaning solution — is what protects the surface and still gets it clean.

iii.

What you can expect

An even, edge-to-edge finish. No "stripes." Oil and rust treated separately. Landscaping rinsed before, during, and after. The drive blown clear and the area left tidy.

FAQ

How much does pressure washing cost?
Most driveways run between $150 and $350, depending on size, surface, and how heavy the staining is. Quotes are free and exact — we don't do bait-and-switch pricing.
Will pressure washing damage my concrete?
Not the way we do it. We use a surface cleaner with calibrated pressure — high enough to lift dirt and stains, low enough to leave the concrete intact. Hand-held wands with too much pressure are how concrete gets etched; we don't use that approach for flat surfaces.
Can you remove oil stains and tire marks?
Most of them, yes. Heavy oil stains may need a separate degreaser pre-treatment, which we do at no extra charge if it's flagged on the quote.
How long does it take?
A typical two-car drive takes one to two hours. A drive plus a walkway plus a patio is usually a half-day.
Do you bring water?
We work off your hose bib, which is the right call for safety and code in central Alabama. Bring-your-own-water is rare and usually unnecessary.
