Professional Patio Cleaning Services Across the UK

There's nothing quite like sitting out on a clean, fresh patio on a sunny day. But over time, even the best-maintained patios can become coated in green algae, black mould, stubborn weeds and slippery moss — making them not just unsightly but genuinely dangerous underfoot.

At B&S Cleaning Experts, our professional patio cleaning service transforms tired, grimy outdoor spaces back to their best. Whether your patio is paving slabs, block paving, natural stone, porcelain or brick, our team has the equipment and experience to clean it thoroughly without causing damage.

What Does Our Patio Cleaning Service Include?

We approach every patio clean with care and attention to detail. Our service typically includes:

• Pre-treatment — biocide solution applied to kill moss, algae and lichen at the root
• Pressure washing — thorough clean using professional-grade equipment to remove dirt, stains and growth
• Weed removal — joints cleared of weeds and unwanted plant growth
• Edge and border cleaning — often-missed areas around the perimeter properly cleaned
• Post-treatment sealing (optional) — sealant applied to protect the surface and slow future growth

Why Is My Patio So Slippery?

If your patio becomes slippery when wet, the culprit is almost certainly algae or green mould growth. These organisms thrive on outdoor surfaces in the UK's damp climate, creating a thin but very slick coating that's particularly dangerous for children and elderly family members.

Professional cleaning removes this growth completely — and a post-clean biocide treatment significantly slows its return, keeping your patio safer for longer.

What Surfaces Do You Clean?

We work on all common patio and outdoor surface types, including:

• Concrete and cement paving slabs
• Block paving (brick pattern driveways and patios)
• Natural stone — sandstone, limestone, slate and granite
• Porcelain and ceramic tiles
• Resin-bound surfaces
• Decking (timber and composite)

Each surface requires a slightly different approach. Porcelain, for example, is very hard and can handle higher pressure, while sandstone is more porous and needs careful treatment to avoid etching. Our team knows the difference — and treats each surface accordingly.

How Long Does Patio Cleaning Take?

A standard patio of around 30–50 square metres typically takes 2 to 4 hours to clean thoroughly. Larger areas, heavily soiled surfaces or patios requiring sealing afterwards will take longer. We'll give you an honest time estimate when we confirm your booking.

How Long Will My Patio Stay Clean?

This depends on your local environment, the surface type and whether a protective sealant is applied. In general, a professionally cleaned patio with a post-treatment biocide will stay clean and growth-free for 12 to 24 months. We recommend an annual or biannual clean to keep your outdoor space looking its best year-round.
