Looking for professional driveway restoration? H2O Restoration provides expert driveway restoration and patio cleaning, including moss and algae removal, oil stain treatment, and black spot lichen removal, for homes across the UK. Whether you need a block paved driveway, tarmac forecourt, imprinted concrete surface, or natural stone patio brought back to life, or a regular maintenance plan to keep growth and staining at bay, our specialist team uses steam cleaning and pressure washing that restores surfaces thoroughly without damaging the surface.
Most homeowners who contact us about driveway restoration are dealing with one of the same handful of problems. See if yours is here.
Moss, algae, and lichen thrive in damp joints and shaded areas, and as well as looking tired, a green driveway or patio becomes a genuine slip hazard in wet weather.
Domestic pressure washers rinse away surface level dirt but rarely solve the problem for good, deep set growth and staining usually return within weeks.
A one size fits all blast risks stripping sealant, dislodging jointing sand, or scarring resin and softer stone, which is why every surface needs assessing individually first.
First impressions count, and a clean, restored driveway and patio can transform how your home looks from the kerb ahead of viewings or the warmer months.

Driveways and patios take more punishment than almost any other surface around your home. Daily vehicle use, oil leaks, weeds, standing water, frost damage, and year round exposure to the elements all leave their mark over time. Moss, algae, and lichen take hold in damp joints and shaded areas, while grime and atmospheric pollution grind deep into the surface. The longer driveway restoration is left, the more ingrained the damage becomes. Our unique steam cleaning equipment is designed to tackle every type of contamination with the right approach for each surface. We assess every driveway and patio before we begin, selecting the appropriate restoration method to avoid damage and achieve the best possible result. Using specialist treatments, steam cleaning systems, and pressure washing equipment, our driveway restoration services cover:
Killed at the root by 150°C steam - not just blasted off the top to grow back in three weeks. Effective driveway moss removal and driveway algae removal that actually lasts.
That grey-brown haze you can't scrub off? It's ingrained dirt. Heat and adjustable pressure lift it out without eroding your block paving or stone.
Where the car parks. Where you spilt the petrol can. Where the previous owner's car used to leak. Our steam shifts oil that cold-water pressure washing leaves behind.
Most contractors snap the tops off. We kill the roots and the seeds in the jointing sand, so your driveway stays cleaner for longer between cleans.
Rust runs from garden ornaments, salt deposits from gritted winter mornings, hard-water spots - all of it lifted in one clean.
Chewing gum, dropped paint, fuel marks, BBQ grease, bird mess. If it's stuck to your driveway, we'll get it off.
The difference between a tired, stained driveway and a properly restored one usually comes down to one professional visit.
A block paving driveway in Sale, untouched for years. Algae across the surface, weeds through every joint, oil stains where the car parks. Visible from the road.
Same driveway, one visit later. Blocks restored to their original colour, joints cleared and ready for re-sanding. Took just under four hours, no chemicals, no damage to the paving.
We restore a wide range of driveway and patio surfaces nationwide. No matter the size, material, or condition, our team has the experience and equipment to bring your surfaces back to their best. We regularly carry out driveway restoration on:
Herringbone, stretcher bond, and decorative patterns, with black spot and jointing weeds treated.
Standard and coloured tarmac cleaned without scarring or stripping the surface.
Colour, definition, and surface seals restored with care.
Cleaned carefully to preserve the aggregate finish.
Including exposed aggregate and brushed finishes.
Granite setts, sandstone, and limestone treated at the correct pressure.
Slabs, flagstones, and garden paths restored and made safe underfoot.
At H2O Restoration, our driveway restoration services use specialist steam cleaning systems and high pressure washing equipment, purpose built for exterior surfaces. These operate at temperatures and pressures a standard domestic pressure washer cannot reach, breaking down deep set oil, grime, and biological growth at the root rather than simply rinsing the surface. This is not simply a case of blasting the surface and hoping for the best. Our methods are chosen to suit the specific surface and type of contamination involved, delivering driveway restoration as cleanly as possible without causing damage.
OUR METHOD
Steam cleaning, pressure washing, and treatments matched to each surface, effective on moss, oil, and ingrained staining without the damage that generic high pressure jet washing can cause.
Over two decades of specialist exterior surface cleaning experience. We understand how different driveway and patio surfaces behave, and how to restore them properly without causing damage.
We work around your household with minimal disruption, so your driveway and patio are back in use and looking their best as quickly as possible.
Most driveways benefit from a professional driveway restoration clean once or twice a year, while shaded or damp areas where moss and algae build up quickly may need more frequent attention.
No. We assess every driveway and patio before beginning work and adjust our pressure settings and cleaning agents to suit the surface, so block paving, tarmac, resin bound, imprinted concrete, and natural stone can all be restored without damage.
Yes. Black spots are caused by a lichen that embeds its roots into the surface, and standard pressure washing alone is rarely enough to remove them. Our steam cleaning process, combined with targeted pre-treatment, removes black spot lichen from most driveway and patio surfaces.

Yes, get in touch to discuss sealing options for your surface type. Applying a sealant after driveway restoration can extend the life of your surface and help protect against future oil staining, moss growth, and weathering.
