Driveway & concrete cleaning

Driveway and concrete cleaning in Brunswick and the Golden Isles

That slick sheen on your concrete is algae, and it is a real fall risk when it rains. We surface clean the whole slab so it comes out evenly — no zebra stripes from a wand — and treat the oil, rust and tannin stains that a plain wash leaves behind.

What this service covers

Driveways and walkways

Flat surface cleaning strips black mildew and leaf stains out of the slab evenly, and the concrete dries several shades lighter.

Pool decks and patios

Wet concrete grows the slickest algae. Cleaning it restores traction, which is a genuine safety win around a pool.

Pavers and brick

We clean pavers at lower pressure so we do not blow out the joint sand, and we can re-sand the joints when we finish.

Rust, oil and tannin stains

Set-in stains get a rust-specific or degreaser pre-treatment. Pressure alone does not lift them — the right chemistry does.

Why a surface cleaner beats a wand

A hand-held wand leaves zebra stripes because the pressure is concentrated in a small fan that moves unevenly. A flat surface cleaner spins two bars at a fixed height, so every inch of the slab gets the same pressure and the whole thing comes out one even color. It also applies lower pressure per inch than a wand, which means less risk to older or softer concrete. The result looks better, lasts longer, and does not leave the patchy lines a wand always does.

How a concrete clean runs

  1. 1
    Pre-treat stains

    Oil, rust and tannin spots get the right chemistry applied first and given time to work.

  2. 2
    Surface clean

    A flat surface cleaner strips the slab at even pressure, no wand stripes.

  3. 3
    Detail and rinse

    We wand-clean the corners and joints, then rinse the whole area and leave it ready to use.

Questions about driveway & concrete cleaning

Yes, with a rust-specific treatment, not pressure. Rust is a chemical bond, so blasting it with high pressure just etches the concrete around it. We apply a rust remover, let it dwell, and rinse. Most rust lifts out cleanly; very old, deep stains may leave a faint shadow.

Algae growing in the pores of the concrete. It is nearly invisible when dry, but when it rains it forms a slick film that is a real fall hazard, especially for older residents and around pool decks. Surface cleaning pulls it out of the pores and restores traction.

It can, if done wrong. High pressure blows the joint sand out and can chip the edges of softer pavers. We clean pavers at lower pressure to protect them, and we can re-sand the joints afterward so they lock back in place. Brick and concrete pavers both get this treatment.

One to two hours for a typical residential driveway, plus setup. Larger driveways, long walkways or heavily stained concrete take longer. We rinse everything down and the slab is ready to walk on as soon as it dries, usually within the hour.
