Patio & Paving Cleaning

Your patio should be somewhere you actually want to spend time.

A grimy, greened-over patio doesn’t just look bad — it makes the whole garden feel neglected. Algae, black spot lichen and moss build up fast on patio surfaces across Hertfordshire, particularly on north-facing and shaded areas. Left untreated they become slippery underfoot and ingrain into the surface, making them progressively harder to shift.

St Albans Jet Washing uses professional rotary surface cleaners and specialist treatments to deep-clean all patio surface types across St Albans, Harpenden, Radlett and the wider Hertfordshire area. We remove years of built-up algae, black spot and staining in a single visit — and we leave the place tidy, not just the patio.

Surfaces we clean

Every patio surface.
Cleaned properly.

Different surfaces need different pressure settings and treatments. We always adjust to suit — so your patio gets cleaned properly, not just blasted.

01

Porcelain
The premium choice for modern gardens. Low porosity means it cleans well, but needs the right technique to avoid grout damage.

Most popular

02

Natural stone
Sandstone, limestone, slate and granite. Porous surfaces need lower pressure and appropriate stone-safe cleaning solutions.

Specialist treatment

03

Block paving
The same surface as many driveways. We remove moss from joints and offer re-sanding to stabilise and protect after the clean.

Re-sand available

04

Concrete slabs
Concrete is durable but stains easily and discolours unevenly over time. We restore it to a uniform, consistent finish.

Full surface clean

05

Imprinted concrete
Pattern-imprinted surfaces have a seal coat that needs protecting. We clean carefully to preserve colour and surface integrity.

Seal preserved

06

Yorkstone & heritage
Older or reclaimed stone needs a careful approach. We use appropriate low-pressure methods to clean without causing damage.

Low pressure only

Everything is included.
Nothing gets added on the day.

No surprises, no upsells. What we quote is the full job.

Pre-treatment of algae and black spot

Stubborn algae, black spot lichen and ingrained organic staining are pre-treated before the main clean begins — not just blasted at and hoped for.

Rotary surface clean — no streaks

We use professional rotary surface cleaners rather than a handheld lance. No tiger striping, no uneven results — consistent across the whole patio area.

Edges, steps and borders

We clean everything in the area — not just the main slabs. Edges, borders, steps and paths are all included as standard on every job.

Full rinse and tidy-up

Once finished we rinse the whole area and clear away completely. We leave your garden looking great — not just the patio.

Common questions about our patio and paving cleaning service in St Albans and Hertfordshire.

How much does patio cleaning cost in St Albans?

Our patio cleaning in St Albans and across Hertfordshire starts from £49. The exact cost depends on the size of the patio and the surface type. Porcelain and natural stone jobs may take slightly longer than concrete or block paving, which can affect price. We always confirm the full cost before any work begins.
Not if it’s done properly. High pressure on the wrong surface type can cause damage — but we adjust pressure and technique for every surface. Porcelain and natural stone are cleaned at lower pressure with appropriate cleaning solutions. We’ve never damaged a surface we’ve been asked to clean.
Yes — black spot lichen is one of the most common problems on patios across Hertfordshire, particularly on limestone and sandstone. It requires pre-treatment with a specialist solution before pressure washing. We include this as standard. Very old or deeply ingrained black spot may require two treatments, which we’ll advise you on when we quote.
For most properties in Hertfordshire, once every 12–18 months keeps a patio in good condition. Shaded patios or those surrounded by trees and shrubs will accumulate algae faster and may benefit from an annual clean. Adding a sealant or moss treatment after the clean significantly slows regrowth.
Yes — we offer protective sealant as an add-on to any patio clean. Sealing prevents water penetration, makes the surface easier to maintain and keeps it looking cleaner for longer. It’s particularly worthwhile on porous surfaces like sandstone or limestone. Just ask when you get a quote.
