Jet Washing in Heathrow and Harmondsworth, TW6

In Heathrow and Harmondsworth (TW6) the usual instruction is natural stone patios and paths, soft-washed rather than blasted. Airport perimeter security, restricted vehicle zones and drop-off charges; the villages are quiet with driveways. The surfaces we meet on these Hillingdon streets are riven sandstone, granite setts, gravel edging and old brick garden walls, each taking a different pressure.
