A clean exterior is just as important as a well-maintained interior. At Home Uplift, our driveway and pathway cleaning service is designed to improve both the look and safety of your property. High-traffic areas naturally collect dirt, oil, algae, moss, and grime over time, which can leave surfaces looking tired and becoming slippery underfoot.

Our process starts with a visual assessment of the surface to ensure the correct cleaning method is used. We then apply suitable treatments to break down organic growth and stubborn staining before carefully cleaning the area using professional pressure washing equipment. Pressure levels are adjusted for each surface, allowing us to achieve a deep clean without causing damage. Once complete, the area is fully rinsed, leaving it cleaner, brighter, and safer to use.

If you have a brick or block paving driveway, the cleaning process will remove the jointing sand between the blocks. Re-sanding with kiln-dried sand is recommended to restore stability, help prevent weed growth, and reduce the risk of movement. This step is optional—we can carry out the re-sanding for you, or you may choose to arrange this separately with another contractor.

We take pride in our attention to detail and our use of environmentally responsible cleaning methods that are safe for your home and those who use it. Whether you are looking to enhance kerb appeal, improve safety, or simply maintain a clean and presentable exterior, our driveway and pathway cleaning service delivers reliable, high-quality results.

Cleaning process

We first confirm access to a suitable water supply and check that proper drainage is available. Any items that could obstruct access or be affected during cleaning are carefully moved or protected. Surrounding surfaces are then pre-soaked to prevent dirt from bonding to areas not being cleaned and to ensure that cleaning solutions cannot dwell on unintended surfaces. Lawns, plants, and garden areas are also thoroughly wetted to prevent chemical absorption and protect surrounding greenery.

Once preparation is complete, we set up and calibrate our equipment to suit the surface being cleaned. The majority of dirt, grime, moss, and debris is removed using controlled pressure, allowing us to clean thoroughly without compromising the integrity of the surface.

Following this, a sodium hypochlorite treatment may be applied to break down remaining organic growth such as algae, lichen, and black spotting. The solution is left to dwell before being thoroughly rinsed away, lifting stubborn contamination and restoring a clean, even finish.

All dislodged dirt and organic matter is either bagged or safely directed through controlled drainage. Once cleaning is complete, surrounding areas affected during the process are fully rinsed, leaving your driveway or pathways clean, safer underfoot, and visually refreshed.

Where the surface is block paving or brickwork, cleaning will remove the existing jointing sand. These surfaces require re-sanding once fully dry to maintain stability and prevent movement. Re-sanding can be arranged as an additional service or completed separately by the customer or a third party once the surface has dried.
