Hard surfaces
Patios, block paving and decking across Poole, Bournemouth and the surrounding areas. Detailed quotes, professional-grade treatment, and zero mess.
Indian sandstone, porcelain, concrete and natural stone all want handling differently. A patio takes the worst of the weather all year round, and algae, black spot and ingrained dirt build up season after season until the colour disappears underneath it. The right pressure and the right treatment bring it back.
No job is too big or too small. Every quote is detailed and itemised, so you can see exactly what is included before anything starts.
We are happy to go through it properly with you: which areas the price covers, what the work involves and what is included in it. Ask as many questions as you like. Nobody should be agreeing to a number they have not had explained to them.
Pressure on its own will not shift black spots, and on a delicate surface too high a pressure can be dangerous. Professional-grade treatment goes on instead, attacking the algae, black spots and ingrained dirt, with the pressure set to suit the slab rather than the other way round.
Surrounding plants and borders are soaked thoroughly to protect them from the chemical treatment.
We treat your home like our own. The surrounding windows, doors and walls get a complete rinse down so no messy sludge is left behind, and the debris is cleared away before we pack up. All we need access to is an outdoor tap.
We evaluate the surface type, protect the surrounding plants, and prep the area for precision wash and chemical treatment.
The patio is pressure washed thoroughly, then a professional-grade treatment goes on to target the black spots, algae and lichen.
We rinse down the surrounding walls and surfaces, clear away the debris, and reveal a freshly restored outdoor space.
The moss lives down in the joints, so the joints are the job. Book a quote for your block paving today.
We use a high-velocity turbo nozzle to get right down into the joints and blast out the weeds and moss, rather than skimming the tops of the blocks. A fan nozzle spreads its force flat across the surface and never reaches into the joints, which is where the growth actually lives.
Once everything is completely dry, we sweep fresh kiln-dried sand back into the joints. Block paving relies on that sand for its structure, keeping the blocks from shifting and the weeds from coming straight back.
We pride ourselves on our clean up. Windows, doors and walls all rinsed down, and the debris cleared away.
The blocks and the joints are evaluated, and the surrounding planting is soaked and protected before anything starts.
High-velocity turbo nozzles blast the weeds and moss out of the joints, then professional-grade treatment targets surface black spots and lichen.
Once the blocks are completely dry, our team sweep kiln-dried sand back into the joints to restore the structural foundation and deter weeds.
Is your decking slippery and dangerous to walk on? Our treatments significantly reduce the slippery algae that turns decking into a slip hazard, so you can get back to relaxing on it.

We use a flat nozzle so the water spreads out across the boards instead of drilling into them. A turbo nozzle concentrates the whole of that force into one rotating point, and on softwood decking that is what lifts the grain, splinters the surface and breaks the timber up.
Algae is what makes decking slippery, and it is not only a summer problem. Through the winter the growth stays wet for weeks at a time and then ices over the top, and an algae-covered board with frost on it is about the most dangerous surface in a garden. Taking the growth off is the part that fixes it.
Once the deck is clean and dry we coat it with a rich teak oil, and that is the part that keeps moisture out of the timber. Bare wood drinks water in, then swells, splits and eventually rots, taking the fixings and the frame underneath with it. Oiling costs a fraction of replacing a deck, which is why we think it matters.
Dry debris is swept off, plants are protected by soaking them with water, and the condition of the timber is assessed before anything else happens.
Low-pressure fan nozzles are used, always following the grain of the wood, to lift slippery grime and algae away without splintering or damaging the fibres. A professional-grade biocide then goes on and stays active, killing the spores you cannot see and slowing regrowth.
Once the boards are completely dry the deck is coated with a rich teak oil. It nourishes the timber, locks moisture out and guards against rot — and it brings the colour of the wood back up at the same time.
