Why Saxilby properties need professional tarmac cleaning

Saxilby is a village on the Fossdyke Navigation, often described as the oldest artificial waterway in Britain. Homes near the canal stay damper than those in villages further from water, so green growth comes on faster. Soil from the flat farmland of the Trent valley blows in as well. The village has grown a lot, so there’s a real mix of older and newer houses, and they don’t all need cleaning the same way.

Saxilby tarmac and the canal damp

Drives near the Fossdyke in Saxilby stay damp for much of the year, which is just what algae needs. You get the green staining that’s common on any property close to water. Cleaning lifts it, and a biocide treatment slows it coming back.

✗
Green staining
Being close to water keeps drives damp, so algae stains the tarmac. We kill it, then slow it coming back.
✗
Oil from the car
Oil soaks into tarmac quickly. Because shop products barely help, we use a proper degreaser.
✗
Faded tarmac
Weather takes the black out of tarmac over time, but a deep clean brings back far more than you'd think.
✗
Weeds in cracks
When weeds root in cracks and along the edges, we clear them out and treat them during the same visit.

How we work

1
Free survey and quote
We look at the tarmac and how big it is, then give you a fixed price. You don't have to go ahead.
2
Pre-treatment
First, biocide goes on the algae and moss. Oil stains get degreaser as well, which is left to soak in before we wash.
3
The hot water clean
Then we pressure clean with hot water, set at a level tarmac can take, so it comes up clean while the surface stays bonded.
4
Edges sorted
We clear weeds from the cracks and edges, then treat them to slow regrowth.
5
Rinse and clear
Finally we rinse off the residue and clear it, so the tarmac is clean and noticeably darker.

Tarmac cleaning in Saxilby, your questions answered

Q: Can jet washing damage tarmac?
A: Only if it's done too hard. We keep the pressure controlled, so the surface gets a thorough clean without lifting.
Q: Can you lift oil stains?
A: Usually. We apply degreaser first so it breaks down the oil, then clean. Old stains may fade rather than vanish, but the difference is usually big.
Q: How long does a clean take?
A: Most home drives take 2–3 hours, though we'll give you an estimate when we quote.
Q: Would a restoration coating help?
A: It might. After the clean, a restoration coating (reblacking) brings back the deep black and helps protect the surface. We can quote for both 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.
