Why Long Sutton properties need professional tarmac cleaning

Long Sutton is a small market town out in the South Holland fens, not far from the Wash. The land round here is flat and low, with farms and drainage dykes in every direction. Drives and paths on flat ground don’t shed water well, so algae and moss get going quicker than they would on a slope. That’s why we treat with biocide after cleaning, to slow it coming back.

Long Sutton drives and the fen weather

Out in the fens around Long Sutton, tarmac stays damp for long spells and algae can grow on it all year rather than just in the wetter months. Peaty soil blowing in off the fields gives it more to feed on. We clean it off, then treat the surface so it’s slower to return.

✗
Year-round algae
Flat drives don't shed water, so algae grows in every season. We treat it so it's slower to come back.
✗
Oil from the car
Oil drips sink into tarmac and darken it. Since shop cleaners barely help, we use a proper degreaser.
✗
Gone pale
Tarmac greys as it weathers, but cleaning off the grime brings a lot of the original colour back.
✗
Weeds and soil in the cracks
When peaty soil blows into cracks, weeds root in it, so we clear them and treat the edges during the clean.

What we do, step by step

1
Free survey and price
We look at the size and state of the tarmac, then you get a fixed price. If you'd rather not go ahead, that's fine.
2
Pre-treatment
Biocide goes on the algae and moss first. Then degreaser goes on any oil marks, and it's left to soak in.
3
The hot wash
After that we clean with hot water at a pressure set for tarmac, high enough for a proper clean but low enough that nothing lifts.
4
Weeding the edges
Cracks and edges are cleared of weeds, then treated so regrowth is slower.
5
Leaving it clean
Finally we rinse the residue off and clear it, so the drive is left clean and much darker.

Tarmac cleaning in Long Sutton, your questions answered

Q: Will the drive be damaged by jet washing?
A: No, because we keep the pressure controlled. We never go in with too much force, so the tarmac gets a thorough clean and stays intact.
Q: How long will you need?
A: Most home drives take 2–3 hours. Since sizes differ, we'll give you an estimate at the quote.
Q: Can oil stains be lifted?
A: In most cases. Degreaser goes on first, although deep, old stains may fade rather than vanish.
Q: Can faded tarmac be reblacked?
A: Yes. After cleaning, a restoration coating (reblacking) brings back the deep black and helps protect the surface. Ask if you'd like both done together.

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 👌

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.
