Why Market Rasen properties need professional tarmac cleaning

Market Rasen sits on the western edge of the Wolds. It’s high enough to catch the westerly wind carrying dust off the fields, but low enough in the valley that damp hangs about longer than on the tops. Victorian and Edwardian brick houses pick up a reddish-brown clay film when the fields are dry at harvest, and streets near the River Rase stay wetter and grow algae faster.

Clay, damp and Market Rasen tarmac

Fine red-brown clay dust is part of life in Market Rasen, and it settles on drives and hardstanding. Over time it forms a film on the tarmac that turns into stubborn staining if nobody cleans it off.

✗
A film of clay
Fine red-brown dust forms a film on tarmac that soon turns into a stain, so we pre-treat it before the wash.
✗
Car oil
Since oil soaks straight into tarmac, a household cleaner won't shift it. Our degreaser generally will.
✗
Faded black
As tarmac weathers it greys, but a deep clean brings back a fair bit of the colour.
✗
Weeds in the joins
Clay in the cracks gives weeds a foothold, so we clear them out and treat them during the clean.

Local experts

Streets near the River Rase stay wetter and grow algae faster, so we look at where your drive sits before choosing how to clean it.

💧

Cleaned to suit

We set our method for each surface, so the tarmac ends up clean rather than damaged.

✅

Fully insured

All our Market Rasen work is covered by £1m public liability insurance too.

How tarmac cleaning in Market Rasen works

1
Free visit
We look at the tarmac and how big it is, then give you a fixed price. There's no obligation to book.
2
Pre-treatment
Biocide is sprayed onto the algae and moss first. Then degreaser goes on any oil, and it's given time to soak in.
3
Hot water pressure clean
After that we clean with hot water, set at a pressure tarmac can take, so the clay film lifts while the surface stays intact.
4
Weeds and cracks
We clear weeds from the edges and cracks, then treat them so they're slower to regrow.
5
Clearing up
Finally the residue is rinsed off and cleared, so the drive is left clean and much darker.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Will jet washing lift my tarmac?
A: Not when the pressure is controlled. We never use too much force, so the surface gets a thorough clean and stays intact.
Q: Can you get rid of oil stains?
A: Usually, yes. Degreaser goes on first to break the oil down, then we clean. Old stains may lighten rather than disappear, but most look far better.
Q: How long does a driveway take?
A: Around 2–3 hours for most homes, though we'll give you a closer estimate when we quote.
Q: Can the tarmac be resealed afterwards?
A: Yes. A restoration coating (reblacking) can go on once the clean is done, so the deep black comes back and the surface is protected. Ask us about doing both.

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.
