Overview

How it works
Step 1
Tarmac, block paving, resin-bound or imprinted concrete, and roughly how many square metres — that sets both the pressure setting and the price.
Step 2
Cleaning, any re-sanding or resealing and the tip fee for spent sand are shown as separate lines rather than folded into one number.
Step 3
A biocide is applied to joints and shaded corners before washing, because pressure alone leaves roots behind that regrow within weeks.
Step 4
Hot water for tarmac and concrete; a stepped-down pressure and softer head for block paving, resin-bound and imprinted surfaces.
Step 5
Kiln-dried sand is brushed and vibrated into block paving joints once dry; sealant is reapplied on resin-bound and imprinted concrete driveways that include it.
Why choose us
Same-week across every borough, with the pressure and nozzle setting confirmed from your photos before the technician is booked so it isn't decided on arrival. Surbiton (South Western) is the nearest station, so a KT6 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, which is why Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in KT6, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Surbiton stock goes, the reality on the streets around Surbiton station's 1937 Art Deco frontage.
Wastewater containing detergent or biocide is contained and directed away from surface water drains during the clean, in line with water company trade effluent guidance, rather than allowed to run off into the road gutter.
One technician and a van-mounted hot-water pressure washer for most driveways; two on larger block-paving jobs where re-sanding is included, since brushing sand in is a second task run alongside the wash. Narrow villa streets with permit bays, plus mansion blocks with small original lifts.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tarmac or plain concrete driveway, up to 20m² | £120 | 1–1.5 hrs | A flat, sealed surface with no joints to protect, so it's the fastest and lowest-risk driveway to hot-water wash at full pressure. |
| Block paving clean only, per m² | £4.50 | By area | Block paving has hundreds of joints per square metre; the pressure is kept low enough not to blow the jointing sand out before we've had the chance to resand it. |
| Block paving clean and re-sand with kiln-dried sand, per m² | £7.50 | By area | Kiln-dried sand has to be brushed in and vibrated down into every joint once the paving is fully dry, which is what actually stops the blocks rocking loose over winter. |
| Resin-bound driveway clean, per m² | £5.50 | By area | Resin-bound surfaces are cleaned at a lower pressure with a soft rotary head, because a standard turbo nozzle can strip aggregate out of the resin binder. |
| Pattern-imprinted concrete clean and reseal, per m² | £6.50 | By area | Imprinted concrete needs its sealant reapplied after cleaning or the colour fades and the surface starts absorbing oil and tyre marks again within a season. |
| Oil stain or moss treatment, per stain or per m² | £15 / £3 | Added to visit | Oil needs a degreaser dwell time before the hot-water wash; moss and algae need a biocide treatment first so it doesn't just regrow from the roots left in the joints. |

Scope
Hello Services provides excellent jet washing service that completely transformed my driveway , highly recommended at this price .
Sardar gave me a great spring clean and the patio clean with professional chemicals. It was fast and reliable service. Will definitely do it again!
Sardar jet washed my front and back patios. He did a great job, was on time, and communicated well. He checked that I was happy with the work and was very neat and tidy while working and afterwards.

Working in Surbiton
In Surbiton (KT6) the split is 76% flats to 24% houses over 7,276 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
With 43% private renting against 43% owner-occupied, most KT6 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, which is why Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded behind the plaster in KT6. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Surbiton stock goes, the reality on the streets around Surbiton station's 1937 Art Deco frontage is the fault we are called back to undo.
Surbiton is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — art Deco station, riverside walks and Victorian villa streets — which is why a KT6 quote is not a Kingston upon Thames average.
Narrow villa streets with permit bays, plus mansion blocks with small original lifts. Nearest station is Surbiton (South Western), and one technician and a van-mounted hot-water pressure washer for most driveways; two on larger block-paving jobs where re-sanding is included, since brushing sand in is a second task run alongside the wash.

Tarmac or plain concrete driveway, up to 20m² starts at £120 in Surbiton for Surbiton (KT6) addresses, with 13% social-rented stock nearby — and 43% owner-occupation locally, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Surface type first, then area. Block paving and resin-bound surfaces cost more per square metre than plain concrete because the lower pressure needed takes longer to cover the same area on Kingston upon Thames bookings, with this being a short walk from Surbiton (South Western) — and 7,276 households on this patch, and re-sanding or resealing is a second pass, not an add-on to the wash.

With 76% of Surbiton homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm in Surbiton — and 13% social-rented stock nearby, with 24% of Surbiton homes being houses, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Replacing cracked, sunken or missing block paving units — that's a re-lay job, quoted separately by our paving team; Structural repointing of natural stone or brick driveways — and 43% owner-occupation locally, which needs a mason rather than a pressure wash; Removing oil that has soaked deep into porous stone over years on this side of Kingston upon Thames, with 7,276 households on this patch, which may need professional poulticing rather than a surface treatment; Driveways shared with an active vehicle crossover where traffic can't be paused for the duration of the clean. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Surbiton KT6 price you agree is the price you pay in this 76% flats neighbourhood, with 41% one-person households here.
All three.
