Driveway cleaning · Queenstown & Wanaka
Driveway cleaning that doesn't wreck the surface.
Concrete, exposed aggregate and paver driveways across the Southern Lakes. Chemistry that lifts oil, lichen and weathering — without the high-pressure blasting that strips the cement paste and accelerates wear.
The driveways we work with
Every driveway has its own staining story.
Concrete driveways
Broom-finish and smooth concrete driveways. We use targeted chemistry to lift oil, lichen and weathering — low-pressure rinses preserve the surface for the long term.
Exposed aggregate
Aggregate driveways hold dirt in the micro-texture between stones. High-pressure blasting smooths the surface over time. Our chemistry-led method lifts the contamination without changing the texture.
Paver driveways
Concrete pavers, clay pavers and natural stone pavers each need different chemistry. We treat the pavers and the sand joints between them as a single system.
Gravel driveway aprons
The concrete apron where a gravel drive meets the road or garage takes the worst of the grit. We deep-clean and can also reseal to slow the next round.
Tyre marks & oil stains
Hot tyres on warm concrete leave marks; oil and hydraulic fluid leave stains. We carry the specific chemistry for each — neither comes out with water alone.
Moss & lichen
The green and black spotting on alpine driveways isn't surface dirt — it's a living colony with roots in the concrete. Killing the spore base is what stops it returning.
How we work
Slow when it matters, fast when it doesn’t.
01
On-site assessment
We come and look at the surface in person. Identify the substrate, test a small area, and work out what the surface actually needs.
02
Tailored method
Soft wash, steam, mild alkaline cleaner, biocide treatment, chosen for your surface, not from a one-size-fits-all playbook.
03
Careful application
Low-pressure equipment that won't damage the substrate. Plant protection. Spot-testing as we go.
04
Optional sealing
Once clean, a breathable sealer extends the result and protects against future moss, salt and water damage.
