Jet Washing across Hertfordshire

Block-paved driveways on the new-town estates take a rotary flat-surface clean at working pressure, while the render and soft old brick on Georgian and Victorian terraces in St Albans and Berkhamsted need a low-pressure soft wash instead, and mixing up the two damages one of them.

Why Hertfordshire customers book us

Pressure set by the surface, not the machine

A low-visibility area is tested first to set the right pressure, because full pressure on soft stone or loose-jointed paving causes damage rather than cleaning it.

Drains and boundaries protected before we start

Gullies and airbricks are covered so run-off silt does not block them, and neighbouring boundaries and planting are screened.

Re-sanding included where joints wash out

Kiln-dried sand is brushed back into block-paving joints as part of the job, because open joints invite weeds straight back.

Told honestly what will and won't come clean

Permanent staining, spalled paving or paint absorbed into unsealed stone will come up cleaner, not new — we say which of yours is which before starting.

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.

Tenancy cleaning has an extensive list of cleaning offered, even jet washing. Adriana team service was very good and we were very happy with our end of tenancy clean. Would definitely recommend.

Jet Washing in Hertfordshire

The new-town estates around Stevenage, Hemel Hempstead, Welwyn Garden City and Hatfield are built with a lot of block-paved driveways and modern concrete patios laid from the 1960s onwards, and those surfaces are generally hard enough to take a rotary flat-surface clean at working pressure — the method that gives an even finish without the striping a hand lance leaves. That is the more straightforward end of the job, provided the joints are re-sanded afterwards so weeds don't come straight back.

The older commuter towns — St Albans, Hitchin, Berkhamsted and the Chilterns villages further west — carry a lot of render, painted masonry and soft old brick or stone around entrances, steps and boundary walls, and that surface needs a soft wash at low pressure rather than a lance held close, because full pressure blows joints out of old paving and permanently scars soft stone. Conservation-area properties in these towns sometimes carry additional restrictions on external alterations, so it is worth confirming with us at quote stage whether your property or wall falls inside one before any work is booked.

Hertfordshire questions

Jet Washing in Hertfordshire — your questions.

  • Will jet washing damage my driveway or patio?

    Not at the right pressure for the surface, which is why we test first. Full pressure on soft stone or loose-jointed paving causes damage, so those get a low-pressure soft wash instead.

  • Is render treated differently to block paving?

    Yes. Render and painted masonry, common on the county's older terraces, get a soft wash with a cleaning solution at low pressure rather than the rotary flat-surface method used on hard driveways.

  • Do you re-sand block paving afterwards?

    Yes, where the joints have washed out. Kiln-dried sand is brushed back in as part of the job.

  • What about a conservation-area property?

    Tell us at quote stage if your property is in a conservation area — some St Albans, Hitchin and Berkhamsted addresses carry additional restrictions on external work, and we'll confirm the method is appropriate before booking.

  • Do you seal the surface afterwards?

    Sealing is a separate decision needing a fully dry surface, so it is never done on the same visit as the wash. We'll say honestly whether your surface would benefit.
