GrimeForce UK can provide thorough and reliable driveway and Patio cleaning services throughout the Greater Manchester area. We are experienced cleaners who operate professional pressure and rotary cleaner equipment which is ideal for heavy duty and hard core areas.

Driveways and patios can become dull and dirty by daily wear and use from everyday life, your car wheels carry, dust, dirt and oil which overtime can build into a thick layer on your driveway. Spores and weed seeds which travel in the wind are then able to find root and germinate in the cracks across your driveway, Patios and Roofs.

Our driveway & Patio cleaning services are vastly more effective at removing weeds and dirt than simple weeding and scrubbing. To ensure the cleaning process is effective, we normally pre-treat the paved area with a low pressure stone or timber wash to destroy fungal spores and break down the moss and dirt. This also has a weed killer added.

Once we have restored your driveway or Patio to its original clean and tidy state the personal maintenance of the driveway becomes manageable, but we are always on hand to provide further cleaning when required!

We are a reliable service and will put you, the customer, first. We make life safer, happier and cleaner!

DRIVEWAY SANDING AND SEALING

Block paving cleaning and sealing is usually done in 4 stages as detailed below:

1st Stage: To ensure the cleaning process is really effective, we would normally pre-treat the paved area with weed killer and/or fungicidal wash to kill off any weeds and fungal spores.

2nd Stage: Usually around 1 week later we would then clean the block paving using a professional rotary headed pressure cleaner to remove any weeds, moss, algae, dirt and grime that may have accumulated over time. Its also important to treat and remove any oil or grease at this stage.

3rd Stage: Once the block paving is completely dry, usually on another day, we can then brush kiln dried sand into the joints to help stabilise the paving and replace what has been displaced during cleaning.

4th Stage: Smartseal acrylic block paving sealers are then sprayed* onto the block paving (normally 2 coats). This helps to protect the paving from deterioration and prevents surface returning quickly.

* The acrylic sealant is sprayed in a two coat application to make sure every individual block and jointing sand is completely covered to ensure the best long term protection.
