About This Service
What We Driveway Clean
We professionally clean all common driveway and hardstand surfaces — plain concrete, exposed aggregate, coloured and stencilled concrete, brick and block paving, natural stone, sandstone, cobblestone, asphalt and more. Whether it’s a single-car driveway or a large commercial carpark, our equipment handles it.
We also clean pathways, verandah and alfresco floors, pool surrounds, garage floors, carports and any other outdoor paved area around your home or business.
Our Driveway Cleaning Process
Every driveway clean starts with a site inspection to assess the surface type, staining severity and any sensitive surrounding areas. Where oil, grease or deep organic staining is present, we apply a specialist biodegradable pre-treatment degreaser and allow it to dwell before pressure washing. We then clean the surface using our commercial hot-water pressure washers operating at up to 4,000 PSI, working methodically in overlapping passes to ensure no patchy areas. All wastewater is managed to comply with local council environmental requirements.
Why Your Driveway Needs Regular Cleaning
the Gold Coast’s subtropical climate accelerates organic growth on outdoor surfaces. Algae and lichen make driveways slippery and hazardous — a genuine safety risk for families and visitors. Left untreated, organic growth can permanently etch and stain concrete. Oil stains from vehicles penetrate porous concrete and become increasingly difficult to remove over time. A clean driveway dramatically improves street appeal and can add perceived value to your property.
Oil Stain Removal
Oil stains are one of the most common driveway problems across Queensland, particularly in older suburbs where vehicles have been parked in the same spot for years. Our hot-water system combined with a specialist alkaline degreaser breaks down the hydrocarbon bonds in oil, lifting them from the concrete surface. Most fresh to moderate oil stains are removed completely. Very old or deeply set stains typically reduce significantly — we’ll give you an honest assessment before starting.
Sealing After Cleaning
After a professional clean, your driveway is the ideal surface for sealing. Concrete and paving sealer applied to a freshly cleaned surface bonds properly and lasts significantly longer than sealer applied over contaminated concrete. Sealing after cleaning protects against future oil staining, reduces algae growth and makes future cleaning easier. Ask us about our post-clean sealing service during your quote.

FAQ
Common Questions
How often should I have my driveway professionally cleaned?
In the Gold Coast’s subtropical climate, most driveways benefit from a professional clean every 12–18 months. Driveways under trees, near building sites or with vehicle oil stains may need more frequent attention.
Can you remove oil stains from my driveway?
Yes. We use hot-water pressure washing combined with specialist biodegradable degreaser that is highly effective on oil and grease. Very old, deep-set stains typically reduce significantly rather than disappear completely — we’ll give you an honest assessment before starting.
What types of driveway surfaces do you clean?
We clean all common driveway surfaces: plain concrete, exposed aggregate, coloured and stencilled concrete, brick pavers, natural stone, sandstone, cobblestone and asphalt. We adjust pressure and technique for each surface type to ensure an excellent result without damage.
Will high pressure damage my concrete driveway?
Not when done by trained professionals. We use the appropriate pressure for each surface — standard concrete handles high pressure safely, while decorative or older surfaces receive a lower-pressure approach to prevent damage.
How long does a driveway clean take?
A standard single-car driveway takes 1–2 hours. A double driveway with surrounding paths and paving takes 2–4 hours. We include a specific time estimate in every free quote.
