Driveway Cleaning in Kings Heath

Driveways are cleaned with a rotary surface washer rather than a hand lance wherever the surface allows it, because it puts even pressure across the whole area instead of leaving stripes behind. Block paving, tarmac, concrete, imprinted concrete and the gravel edges beside them are all handled. Weed and moss growth comes out of the joints, the surface is rinsed and the loosened silt taken off, and block paving is re-sanded with kiln-dried sand so the blocks lock together again. Sealing is available if you want it.

Off-street parking in Kings Heath is nearly all retro-fitted. Front gardens along the older streets have been converted a few at a time into short block-paved bays, and because the ground falls away west of the centre towards Stirchley, grit and silt wash down the slope and pack solid at the kerb end of the drive. The roads laid out in the 1950s on the last of the old farmland were built with room for a car from the start, so those drives are often the original concrete strips, or tarmac that has been widened at some point since. Both sit under street trees, and that shade keeps the surface damp enough for moss to hold on all year.

We bring our own water, so nobody is running a hose through the kitchen. Cars come off, heavy weed growth is treated first, then the drive is washed, rinsed and re-sanded, and the waste is swept up and taken away rather than left in the gutter. Most drives are a half day, or a full day if the area is large or the edges need re-pointing. Rough dimensions and a photo are enough for us to give you a figure.
