Pressure Washing in Worthing

A single driveway or small patio takes 1-3 hours. A full house exterior typically takes half a day to a full day depending on size, number of storeys, and how much pre-treatment the surfaces need. Add drying time of a few hours before you walk on sealed or treated surfaces.

Yes. Too much pressure or the wrong nozzle can etch concrete, blast mortar out of brick joints, splinter timber decking, strip paint, and force water behind siding or render. Roof tiles are especially vulnerable. Ask the pro what PSI and nozzle they plan to use per surface, and whether they soft wash delicate areas.

Pressure washing uses high-pressure water and suits hard surfaces: concrete, pavers, brick. Soft washing uses low pressure plus a cleaning solution and is the right method for painted render, siding, roofs, and timber, where high pressure would strip paint, gouge wood, or crack tiles. A good pro will recommend soft washing for delicate surfaces without being asked.

Driveway cleaning in Worthing is usually priced by area and condition. A standard single-car driveway sits at the bottom of the local range; a large or heavily stained double driveway with weed growth and oil marks can cost two to three times more. Ask whether resealing or re-sanding block paving joints is included — that is often a separate line item.

Most pros charge either by the hour or by surface area. A single driveway or patio is typically a 1-3 hour job at the low end of a pro's minimum call-out, while a full house exterior wash costs several times more.

UK guides put driveway cleaning at roughly £8.50-£15.50 per m². A single-car drive (up to 20m²) can be £40-£100, a standard two-car drive £100-£250, and large drives £250-£500. Resealing after cleaning adds £100-£200 to a medium drive.

Yes, but the jointing sand gets blasted out along with the grime, so the job is only complete once the joints are re-sanded (kiln-dried sand) and ideally sealed. If a quote doesn't mention re-sanding, the paving will loosen and weeds will return faster.
