Orpington driveways take a battering from traffic film, leaf litter and slippery algae—especially after wet spells. Our team cleans block paving, tarmac and concrete to bring back a fresh, even finish. We regularly work around BR5 and BR6, including homes near Orpington station and The Walnuts Shopping Centre. Expect a tidy setup, careful edge work and a result that looks properly maintained.
From 1930s semis with long front drives to detached houses and modern estates, Orpington properties often have generous parking areas that show dirt quickly. Block paving is common in Petts Wood and Farnborough, while larger plots in Green Street Green may include mixed surfaces and drainage channels. We tailor the method to the material, jointing and slope so the clean lasts. That means no one-size-fits-all blasting—just the right pressure and treatments for your driveway.
Our process starts with a pre-treatment for moss and algae, followed by controlled pressure washing and targeted oil stain removal where needed. We apply weed treatment to slow regrowth, then re-sand block paving joints once the surface is fully dry; sealing is available for added protection and colour lift. We protect surrounding borders, keep run-off managed, and leave the area neat. Homeowners choose us for consistent results, clear pricing and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
The driveway cleaning Orpington area often needs is influenced by shade from mature trees and damp conditions that encourage algae on north-facing drives. In the driveway cleaning in London Borough of Bromley, we also plan for access and parking constraints on residential streets, and we work carefully around drainage points and thresholds. Many homes have block paving that benefits from re-sanding after washing to prevent movement. We adapt pressure, detergents and finishing steps to suit each surface and setting.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most driveway cleaning in Orpington is priced by area and surface condition, typically £3–£8 per square metre. As a guide, many homeowners spend around £150–£400 for a standard driveway, with more for heavy oil staining, extensive moss removal, or if you add re-sanding and sealing. Block paving often needs re-sanding after washing, which can affect the total. We’ll confirm a range after checking size, access and material.
A typical driveway clean takes around half a day, but timings vary with size, surface type and how ingrained the dirt is. Heavy moss, thick algae, or multiple oil spots can add time because treatments need dwell time and careful rinsing. Block paving may also require re-sanding once the surface has dried, which can be the same day in good weather or scheduled shortly after. Access, drainage and water supply also influence duration.
For most driveway cleaning jobs, you won’t need planning permission because it’s maintenance rather than construction. However, we still work responsibly with run-off management and avoid letting contaminated water enter surface drains where possible. If your property has specific restrictions (for example, listed status, shared access, or particular drainage arrangements), we’ll talk it through before starting. We also keep noise and working hours considerate for neighbours, especially on tighter streets.
Yes. Our workmanship is supported by a 10-year warranty, covering the quality of the cleaning process and any applied finishing work such as re-sanding and sealing when carried out by our team. It doesn’t cover new staining from oil leaks, tyre marks, or natural regrowth caused by ongoing shade and damp, but we’ll advise on prevention. If anything we’ve done falls short, we’ll return to put it right.
We clean most driveway materials including block paving, tarmac, concrete and natural stone. Popular finish options include re-sanding for block paving joints, targeted oil stain removal, and sealing to help reduce future staining and make routine maintenance easier. Sealers can be matt or enhanced, depending on the look you want. We’ll recommend the safest approach based on your surface, drainage, and how you use the driveway day to day.
