Why Holbeach properties need professional tarmac cleaning

Holbeach is in the South Holland fens, some of the flattest farmland in England. Bulb fields surround the town and the water table is high, so the ground rarely dries out properly. Drives and walls here grow moss and algae noticeably quicker than in drier parts of Lincolnshire, and a cleaned surface can green over again within a year or two if it isn’t treated.

Tarmac cleaning in Holbeach by Fenland Property Care

Holbeach tarmac and the fen damp

High groundwater and flat land keep tarmac in Holbeach wet, and soil from the bulb fields gives algae plenty to feed on. Left alone, drives here can grow a thick, slippery coat quicker than almost anywhere else in Lincolnshire.

✗
A thick green coat
Flat land and wet ground let algae build up fast here, so we kill it at the root instead of only washing it off.
✗
Oil left behind
Oil from cars soaks into tarmac, but a proper degreaser lifts far more of it than any shop product.
✗
Faded tarmac
Tarmac loses its black over the years. Even so, cleaning away the grime gets back a lot of the depth.
✗
Weeds in cracks
Bulb field soil gives weeds plenty to root in, so we clear them from cracks and edges and treat them during the visit.

Local tarmac cleaning in Holbeach

A cleaned drive in Holbeach can green over again fast if it isn't treated, so we always finish with a biocide.

💧

The method suits the drive

We pick how to clean based on your surface, so the result is thorough while the tarmac stays undamaged.

✅

Fully insured

We also carry £1m public liability insurance on all our Holbeach jobs.

How we go about it

1
Free survey
We see how big the drive is and how much growth is on it, then give you a fixed price. There's no obligation.
2
Pre-treatment
Biocide goes on first to kill algae and moss. Meanwhile, oil stains are given degreaser, then left so it can work into the tarmac.
3
Hot water pressure clean
Then we wash with hot water at a pressure that's right for tarmac, so it cleans thoroughly while the surface stays down rather than blistering.
4
Weeds out
We clear weeds from the cracks and edges, then treat them so they're slower to return.
5
Rinse and tidy
Finally the residue is rinsed off and cleared, so the tarmac is clean and a good deal darker.

Tarmac cleaning in Holbeach, your questions answered

Q: Does pressure washing hurt tarmac?
A: Not if it's controlled. We never use too much force, so the drive gets a thorough clean and the surface doesn't lift or break up.
Q: Can you take out oil stains?
A: Generally, yes. We put degreaser on first to break the oil down, then clean. Stains that are years old may lighten instead of vanishing, but they look much better.
Q: How long will it take?
A: A home driveway usually takes 2–3 hours. We'll give you an accurate figure when we quote.
Q: Would reblacking help my drive?
A: It might. After cleaning, a restoration coating (reblacking) brings back the deep black colour and also protects the surface. If you'd like, we'll quote for the clean and the coating 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.
