Why Boston properties need professional tarmac cleaning

Boston is one of the dampest places in Lincolnshire, sitting in the fens close to the Wash. Sea mist and the drainage dykes keep the air moist, so moss and algae grow faster here than in drier parts of the county. The ground is flat, so water sits on drives and patios instead of running away, and that speeds up staining and green growth between cleans.

Tarmac cleaning in Boston by Fenland Property Care

Why Boston drives go green so fast

Tarmac in Boston can grow a slippery green coating within months of being cleaned. Sea mist off the Wash and flat ground that holds water keep it damp, and fen soil gets blown onto it as well.

✗

Slippery when wet

Damp tarmac grows a green film that gets slick in the rain, so we treat it to kill the algae and slow its return.

✗

Oil soaked in

Since tarmac is porous, oil drips sink in deep. We use a degreaser that lifts what household products leave behind.

✗

Bleached by the weather

Tarmac loses its black over time, especially on open, flat drives. Cleaning off the grime brings a lot of the depth back.

✗

Weeds in the cracks

When weeds take over the edges, the whole drive looks unloved. We clear them out and treat them while we're there.

How the job goes

Free look and quote

We see how big the area is and how much growth there is, then give you a fixed price with no obligation.

Pre-treatment

Algae and moss get a biocide first. Meanwhile, oil marks get a degreaser, which needs time to soak into the tarmac before the wash.

Hot water clean

We then pressure clean with hot water, set for tarmac, so it's strong enough for a proper clean but not so strong that the surface blisters.

Weeding the edges

After that, weeds come out of the cracks and edges, and we treat them to slow regrowth.

Final rinse

We wash off and clear all the residue, so the tarmac is left clean and visibly darker.

Serving Boston and the fen villages

We clean tarmac right across Boston as well as in the nearby villages and towns, including those listed here.

Tarmac cleaning in Boston, your questions answered

Q: Is it safe to pressure wash tarmac?

A: It is if the pressure is right. We use a controlled setting and steady technique, so the drive gets cleaned without breaking up or lifting.

Q: What about old oil stains?

A: We can usually help. Degreaser goes on before the clean to break the oil down. The oldest stains sometimes fade rather than disappear, but the improvement is usually clear.

Q: How long should I expect it to take?

A: Around 2–3 hours for most driveways, though we'll give you a firmer idea when we quote.

Q: Do you recommend a coating after cleaning?

A: It's worth a thought. A restoration coating (reblacking) goes on once the drive is clean, then brings back the deep black and helps protect it. We can do both on the same booking if you like.

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.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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 👌

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.

We would not hesitate to recommend his work.
