Sound Familiar?

If Any of This Sounds Like You, You're in the Right Place

Most of our customers come to us with one of these four situations. See if yours is on the list.

"My patio is black with moss and lichen and I'm embarrassed when people visit."

Years of Manchester weather and organic growth turn even a beautiful patio green and black. Patio moss and lichen removal, and algae treatment are one of the most common jobs we do – and the transformation is dramatic. One visit is usually all it takes.

"I've tried cleaning it myself but the moss just grows back."

Consumer pressure washers remove the surface layer of moss and organic matter but don't kill the spores – so regrowth happens within weeks. Our 150°C steam kills moss, algae and lichen at the root, giving you results that last considerably longer.

"We've got a family occasion coming up and need the garden looking its best."

We work quickly and efficiently, and most patio cleans are done in a single visit. If you've got a deadline – a party, a house sale, or simply summer arriving - let us know, and we'll fit around your schedule.

What You'll Actually Get

One Clean. Every Problem Sorted

Our professional patio cleaning service addresses the full range of problems that Manchester's climate and everyday use creates – in a single visit.

Patio moss and algae removal

150°C steam kills moss, algae and lichen growth at the root across patio surfaces, paving joints and edges – not just surface removal that regrows in weeks.

Deep-seated dirt and grime

Years of embedded dirt, leaf staining, and general garden grime lifted from flagstone, block paving, and concrete slabs – restoring the original colour of your paving.

Oil stains and stubborn marks

BBQ grease, oil spills, and stubborn organic stains that cold-water jet washing leaves behind are lifted effectively by our steam cleaning method.

Flagstone and natural stone cleaning

Natural stone requires careful handling - too much pressure causes surface pitting and erosion. Our adjustable steam system cleans flagstone safely, restoring its natural appearance without damage.

Block paving and paving slab cleaning

Block paving cleaned thoroughly, and re-sanded afterwards with dry-kiln sand. Without this key process, this leaves the paving loose and prone to weed regrowth.

Porcelain and ceramic patio tiles

Porcelain tiles stain and dull quickly in outdoor conditions. Steam cleaning restores the surface sheen without abrasive methods that scratch or mark glazed finishes.

The Transformation

See the Difference Professional Patio Cleaning Makes

Results like these are typical across our Manchester patio cleaning jobs – the difference one visit makes is usually striking.

BEFORE

A flagstone patio in Manchester – heavy moss and algae growth, years of leaf staining between joints, and green discolouration across the entire surface. A common sight in any garden that hasn't had a professional clean.

AFTER

Same patio, same day. Moss and weeds removed, original stone colour restored, joints clean and intact. The homeowner's words: it looks better than when it was first laid.

Every Surface, The Right Method

Patio Cleaning for Every Type of Paving

Not all paving is the same – and not all cleaning methods are safe for every surface. We adjust our approach to match your paving type.

01 Flagstone and Natural Stone

Gentle steam cleaning that restores colour and removes moss without the surface erosion that aggressive pressure washing causes on natural stone.

02 Weeds and Moss Removal

Thorough cleaning without blasting jointing sand – the most common damage caused by DIY or untrained patio jet washing on block-paved surfaces. Pointing sand will be washed out from the jet washing process, but we can then re-sand the joints once the patio is dry – typically the next day.

03 Porcelain and Ceramic Tiles

Steam cleaning safe for glazed and non-slip porcelain finishes – restores surface appearance without abrasion or chemical treatment.

04 Concrete Slabs

Embedded grime, oil staining and moss growth lifted from concrete paving slabs – a highly effective application for our 150°C steam system.

05 Resin Bound Paving

Resin bound surfaces require careful low-pressure cleaning. We adjust our method specifically to prevent lifting or loosening of the resin surface.

06 Mixed and Patterned Paving

Many garden patios combine different materials. We assess the full area before we start and apply the right settings for each surface type.

Why Steam, Not Standard Pressure Washing?

Professional Patio Steam Cleaning vs Standard Patio Pressure Washing

Most patio cleaning companies use cold-water pressure washing. Here's why our steam cleaning method delivers better, safer results for your patio and paving.

H2O Steam Cleaning

  • 150°C heat kills moss, weeds algae, and lichen spores at the root
  • Adjustable pressure – safe for all paving types and jointing
  • No harsh chemicals – eco-friendly and safe for pets and plants
  • Lifts oil stains and embedded grime cold water leaves behind
  • Longer-lasting results – growth takes much longer to return
  • No joint or surface erosion from over-pressurisation
  • 20+ years' experience – no DIY guesswork

Standard Patio Jet Washing

  • Cold water removes surface growth – spores remain, regrowth in weeks
  • High pressure strips jointing sand, leaving paving loose which will require re-sanding
  • Often relies on bleach-based chemicals, with uncontrolled results, which can discolour or damage the surface paving
  • Oil and stubborn stains largely unaffected by cold water
  • Results degrade quickly – green again within a season
  • Risk of pitting, erosion and surface damage on natural stone
  • Consumer-grade equipment widely available – anyone can do it

FAQs

Patio Cleaning Questions, Answered

How much does professional patio cleaning cost in Manchester?

Costs vary depending on the size of your patio, the paving type, and the level of moss, weeds or algae growth. We provide a free, no-obligation quote same working day. Get in touch with your postcode and an approximate patio size and we’ll come back with an honest price.

Is patio steam cleaning better than pressure washing?

For most patios, yes. Patio steam cleaning uses heat (150°C) as well as water pressure, which kills moss and algae spores at the root rather than just removing visible growth. It also allows lower water pressure to be used, which is much safer for block paving joints and natural stone surfaces. Standard patio pressure washing with cold water removes surface dirt but leaves spores – meaning regrowth appears much sooner. We sometimes also use an algae biocide treatment, which is designed to kill organic growth, so the area stays cleaner for longer.

Should I pressure wash my patio myself?

You can, but there are real risks. Too much pressure on block paving blasts out the jointing sand, leaving slabs loose and creating gaps for weeds. On flagstone and natural stone, aggressive pressure washing causes surface pitting and erosion. Consumer-grade washers often don’t have the temperature capability to kill moss and algae properly. A professional patio cleaning service protects your paving investment while delivering a better result.

How often should I have my patio professionally cleaned?

We generally recommend a professional patio clean once or twice a year, depending on the paving type and how quickly growth returns in your garden. North-facing or shaded patios tend to accumulate moss faster and may benefit from more frequent cleaning. We’ll recommend a realistic schedule when we visit.

Can you remove moss and algae from flagstone paving?

Yes – flagstone cleaning and natural stone cleaning are among the most common jobs we carry out. Our steam system is particularly effective on flagstone as it lifts deep-rooted moss and organic staining without the aggressive pressure that damages the stone surface. We adjust the temperature and pressure specifically for natural stone before we start.We sometimes also use an algae biocide treatment, which is designed to kill organic growth, so the area stays cleaner for longer.

 

Is patio steam cleaning safe for plants and pets?
Yes. Steam cleaning process uses only water, but combined with our safe, specialist, approved chemicals, if required, produces a longer-lasting clean.
How long does a patio cleaning visit take?

Most standard-sized garden patios are cleaned in a single visit lasting between 2 and 5 hours, depending on size and the extent of moss growth. We’ll give you a realistic time estimate with your quote so you know what to expect on the day.
