Why North Hykeham properties need professional tarmac cleaning

North Hykeham has grown fast, and most of its houses went up between the 1970s and the 2000s on Lincoln’s clay belt. Homes on the eastern side back onto farmland, so clay gets blown and tracked onto drives and paths. The town also sits in the Witham valley with high groundwater, so north-facing surfaces stay damp and grow algae easily.

North Hykeham tarmac and the clay

In North Hykeham, damp clay ground means tarmac drives go green faster than they would on higher, drier ground. With the A46 running past, oil drips from cars are common on home and business tarmac, and we treat those with a degreaser.

✗
Green on damp clay
Drives on damp clay go green faster than those on drier ground. We kill the algae, then treat the surface.
✗
Oil drips
With so many cars about, oil drips are common on drives and car parks. A proper degreaser lifts them.
✗
Weathered grey
Tarmac fades over time, although a good clean takes off the grime and brings back much of the colour.
✗
Clay and weeds
Clay gets tracked into cracks and weeds soon root, so we clear them out and treat the edges during the clean.

How the clean works

1
Free survey
We look at how much tarmac there is and its condition, then quote a fixed price. You don't have to go ahead.
2
Pre-treatment
Biocide goes on the algae and moss first. Meanwhile oil drips get degreaser, which needs time to soak in before the wash.
3
Hot water clean
Then comes hot water pressure cleaning, set for tarmac, so it's strong enough to clean but not so strong the surface lifts.
4
Edges and joins
We clear weeds from the edges and joins, then treat them to slow regrowth.
5
Rinsed off
Finally the residue is rinsed and cleared away, so your tarmac is left clean and darker.

Tarmac cleaning in North Hykeham, your questions answered

Q: Will a pressure washer damage tarmac?
A: Not if it's done properly. We control the pressure and use steady technique, so the surface gets cleaned without breaking up.
Q: Can you remove oil from a drive?
A: Usually. We put degreaser on first to break the oil down, then clean. Old stains may fade instead of going completely, but most improve a lot.
Q: How long does it take?
A: For most home drives, 2–3 hours. Car parks take longer, so we'll give you an estimate when we quote.
Q: Is it worth reblacking tarmac?
A: Often, yes. A restoration coating (reblacking) can go on after the clean, so the black comes back and the surface is protected. We'll quote for both together if you ask.

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.
