Why Alford properties need driveway cleaning

Alford sits at the eastern foot of the Wolds, a bit higher and more open than the flat fen towns further south. Rain blowing in from the east and north brings field dust with it, and sometimes a little salt from the coast about 8 miles away. The old market buildings and the Wolds farmhouses round about get a lot of moss and lichen, and houses on the coast side can pick up a trace of salt as well.

When an Alford drive needs a proper clean

Clay from the surrounding farmland settles on Alford driveways throughout the year and leaves a reddish-brown film on light surfaces. We pre-soak it with the right detergent before pressure washing.

βœ—
Black algae spots
It sinks into the pores of the surface, so a yard brush rarely gets it out.
βœ—
Moss underfoot
Moss makes a drive slippery, especially when wet weather blows in from the east.
βœ—
Weeds in the joints
Grass and weeds root between the blocks until the blocks start to shift out of line.
βœ—
Oil and tyre marks
Drips from the car soak in and look permanent, but a proper degreaser will lift most of them.

What our driveway cleaning in Alford covers

Most Alford drives are block paving or concrete, and we also reseal them.

Block paving
We wash out the moss and algae as well as the joint weeds, so the blocks get their colour back.
Tarmac cleaning
Tarmac is pressure washed, but gently so the surface stays put.
Plain and imprinted concrete
Concrete drives cleaned, including the pattern-printed kind.
Stone and flags
Sandstone, limestone and slate get a low-pressure soft wash instead of a jet.
Driveway resealing
If you want it, we seal the drive after the clean so it keeps looking better for longer.
Oil stains
A degreaser goes on fuel and oil spills before the wash.

How driveway cleaning in Alford works

1
Free assessment
We look at the surface first, then tell you which method we'd use on it.
2
Pre-treatment
Before any washing, a biocide or degreaser goes down to loosen algae and oil.
3
Pressure wash
Then the pressure is set for that surface, so it comes clean without damage.
4
Fresh joint sand if needed
Block paving joints get topped up with kiln-dried sand as soon as the cleaning is done.

Alford driveway questions

Q: Do you cover properties on the Lincolnshire Wolds around Alford?
A: Yes, we cover Alford and the Wolds villages round it, including Bilsby, Well, Beesby and Maltby le Marsh. We’re used to the more exposed hilltop properties too.
Q: Can a pressure washer harm block paving?
A: Not when it's set right. We adjust it for each surface, so very little joint sand comes out of block paving.
Q: Can you seal the drive once it's clean?
A: Yes, sealing is an optional extra. It helps the drive stay clean for longer before it needs doing again.
Q: How long does a driveway clean take?
A: A typical house drive takes 2–4 hours, and we'll give you an estimate when you book.

From the initial consultation through to the completion of our roof cleaning, including the thorough removal of all debris afterwards, the Fenland Property Care team were consistently professional, courteous and meticulous. We were also very pleased with the cost of the works, which represented excellent value for the service provided.

The operative arrived on time, as arranged. Brought the necessary kit to clean an accumulation of dirt, weeds and debris over several years from our drive and patio. This was accomplished by the end of the working day when all was looking pristine. Surfaces had been cleaned down. A week later they were back to fill the gaps with kiln dried sand and now it looks like new.

Absolutely brilliant service. Very professional and friendly. Came to give a quote and was pleasantly surprised. My front and back garden look brand new. All slabs are the original colour and weedless and the front is weed free and looks amazing. They worked really hard throughout the day and also returned to finish the work, due to really hot weather. Very good customer service, had a concer and called me back within 30 minutes. Would definitely recommend πŸ‘Œ

An excellent job. From start to finish what an absolute pleasure. No pushy salesman just an authentic genuine quote. Even when I added a couple of bits, nothing was too much trouble. The price was really good too. Paul and Dale turned up on time on the date stated. Even though the weather was horrible they got cracked on with the job. They grafted all the time they were there. The work carried out was exceptionally good. They cleaned up all of the mess afterwards and let the place spotless. I cannot praise them enough. They treated my mum and her bungalow with the utmost respect.

Fenland did a great job cleaning and re-sanding my block paving path and my patio. Polite and efficient and cleaned the doors and windows where the dirt had splashed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Paul cleaned my drive, paths and patio the other day and I have never seen them look so clean. He cleaned the windows and left everything clean and tidy. We were very pleased with the way he worked and have had a lots of compliments from other people. We would not hesitate to recommend his work.
