Driveway Pressure Washing and Cleaning

A clean driveway makes an immediate difference to how a property looks — and hot water pressure washing is the most effective way to restore it properly.

Driveways take a lot of punishment. Vehicle traffic, oil drips, tyre marks, rust from metal furniture or fittings, tannin staining from leaves and organic matter, and the gradual build-up of mould, moss, and general grime all take their toll over time. The result is a surface that looks neglected — even when the rest of the property is well maintained.

Standard garden hose cleaning doesn’t cut it on a driveway. The staining is embedded in the surface, and without the right equipment and cleaning solutions, it won’t shift.

How We Clean Driveways

Our surface restoration vehicles arrive fully equipped with hot water pressure cleaning systems, specialist cleaning formulations, and wastewater recovery equipment — everything needed to restore your driveway without relying on your facilities.

Assessment
Our technician assesses the driveway surface and the types of staining present before work begins. Concrete, brick pavers, exposed aggregate, asphalt, and other surfaces each respond differently, and the approach is matched accordingly.

Pre-treatment where required
For stubborn or embedded staining — oil, rust, tannin, or heavy biological growth — a specialist cleaning solution is applied to the affected area and left to dwell before pressure washing begins. This breaks down the stain at the source rather than just working on the surface.

Hot water pressure washing
Hot water is significantly more effective than cold water for driveway cleaning — the heat breaks down oil, grease, and organic matter that cold water alone can’t shift. Pressure is carefully controlled to suit the surface type, ensuring thorough cleaning without causing surface damage.

Wastewater recovery
Wastewater is captured on site and prevented from entering stormwater drains — compliant with environmental regulations on every job.

Stains and Soiling We Remove

Our graffiti removal service covers a wide range of concrete surfaces and applications:

  • General grime and dirt build-up

  • Asphalt
  • Stone and slate
  • Tile

Residential and Commercial Driveways

Residential driveways accumulate staining gradually over time — oil drips from vehicles, rust from metal furniture and garden edging, tannin from overhanging trees, and mould and moss from shaded or damp areas. A professional clean restores the surface and significantly improves the street appeal of the property.

Commercial driveways and entry areas — retail centres, office buildings, and industrial properties — see much higher traffic volumes and accumulate heavier soiling faster. For these properties, scheduled cleaning as part of a maintenance agreement keeps entry areas consistently well presented and reduces slip hazards from mould and algae build-up.

What to Expect on Every Job

  • On-site assessment before work begins — surface type and staining identified, approach confirmed
  • Hot water pressure washing for superior results on oil, grease, and organic staining
  • Specialist pre-treatment solutions applied where required for stubborn staining
  • Waste water is captured as required — no runoff into stormwater drains
  • Risk report provided before work begins
  • $20 million public liability insurance on every job
  • ISO-audited operations — Quality (ISO 9001), OH&S (ISO 45001), Environmental (ISO 14001)

Protect Your Driveway After Cleaning

Once your driveway is restored, sealing the surface is the most effective way to maintain the result.

A quality driveway sealer creates a protective barrier that reduces stain penetration, makes future cleaning easier, and extends the life of the surface — particularly for concrete and pavers.
