Queen Anne Pressure Washing (Driveways, Patios, Fences) Services
Algae-slick steps and unsightly driveways can detract from the charm of your Queen Anne home. At Neat & Tidy, we specialize in transforming your concrete, pavers, and wood fences into pristine surfaces. Through proper pretreatments, rotary surface cleaners, and soft-wash techniques, we deliver a flawless finish that enhances safety and curb appeal while ensuring longevity.
What’s the Problem?
Is your property facing any of these issues?
- Green/black algae and moss making your walks slippery and unsafe
- Stubborn oil/rust/leaf stains and tire tracks that regular garden hoses can’t handle
- Paver surfaces showing white haze, missing joint sand, or uneven “tiger stripes” from DIY attempts
- Weathered, gray fences with blotchy clean spots from high-pressure blasts that do more harm than good
What We Clean (and How We Do It)
Concrete & Exposed Aggregate (Driveways, Walks, Patios)
- Pretreatment: We apply an eco-friendly solution to tackle algae and oil stains.
- Cleaning: Utilizing a rotary surface cleaner, we ensure an even wash across the entire surface.
- Post-Treatment: A treatment that slows regrowth is applied, keeping your surfaces cleaner for longer.
- For stubborn oil stains, we offer a hot-water cleaning option. Rust and leaf-tannin spot treatments are also available.
Paver Patios & Paths
- Algae Pretreatment: We start with a pretreatment specifically for algae growth.
- Gentle Cleaning: Low/medium pressure with a wide fan and surface cleaner protects joints while providing a deep clean.
- Sealing Options: After drying, we can provide polymeric re-sand and seal services to lock joints and enhance color.
Wood Fences (and Select Wood Gates/Decks)
- Soft-Wash Process: We use a low-pressure soft-wash technique with a wood-safe detergent to gently clean your fence.
- Optional Brightening: For cedar or redwood, we offer an oxalic brighten treatment and can schedule staining/sealing on a separate scope.
We do not high-pressure wash roofs or blast wood and mortar. If a method risks damage, we pivot to soft-wash or will let you know it’s a no-go.
Our Annual Maintenance Plan
Keep your surfaces looking sharp with our annual maintenance plan, which includes:
- Moss/Algae Control: Seasonal pretreatments to prevent regrowth, especially crucial in Queen Anne’s damp climate.
- Even-Finish Washes: We use rotary cleaning on concrete and pavers to avoid stripy wand jobs.
- Joint Care: Inspection of paver joints, re-sanding, and optional sealing.
- Fence Refresh: Gentle washing with a scheduled follow-up for staining/sealing as needed.
- Drain & Debris Tidy: We clear curb lines and inlets after cleaning, essential for effective drainage.
Our mission is to be your low-maintenance landscaping crew, minimizing problems between visits and reducing your workload.
Service Cadences
- Quarterly: Ideal for spring/fall resets and safety checks during storm season.
- Bi-Monthly: Perfect for properties with heavy tree cover or high foot traffic.
