H2O Restoration provides expert patio cleaning for homes across the UK, including moss and algae removal, black spot treatment, and weed clearance between paving joints.

If Any of This Sounds Like You, You're in the Right Place
Most homeowners who contact us about patio cleaning are dealing with one of the same handful of problems. See if yours is here.
Moss, algae and lichen thrive in the UK’s damp climate, and once they take hold, your patio becomes dark, slick and unsafe underfoot, especially in winter.
Domestic pressure washers rarely reach the temperatures and pressures needed for a lasting result, and the wrong settings can strip jointing sand, damage softer surfaces or leave patchy results.
Your patio is where you eat, entertain and relax in the warmer months, and a professionally cleaned surface makes an immediate difference to how much you use and enjoy your garden.

Patio Cleaning Across the UK
Rain, frost and the UK’s persistently damp climate create ideal conditions for moss, algae and lichen to take hold, making professional patio cleaning essential for most UK homes. Over time, green growth, black stains and air pollution make patios look dark, slick and neglected, and the longer you leave it untreated, the deeper it sinks into the surface. We assess every job individually before we begin, tailoring our approach to your specific surface type and condition, not a one-size-fits-all blast with a pressure washer. Using specialist steam cleaning and pressure washing equipment, our patio cleaning service removes:
The green moss and slimy algae
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.
Years of embedded 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 patches and tyre marks
BBQ grease, oil spills, and stubborn organic stains that cold-water jet washing leaves behind are lifted effectively by our steam cleaning method.
Weeds growing through the joints
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.
Weather stains and salt marks
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.
And the rest of it
Porcelain tiles stain and dull quickly in outdoor conditions. Steam cleaning restores the surface sheen without abrasive methods that scratch or mark glazed finishes.
See What Professional Patio Cleaning Achieves
The difference between a tired, green patio and one that makes you want to spend time outside usually comes down to one professional visit.
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.
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.

How We Deliver Our Patio Cleaning Service
At H2O Restoration, our patio cleaning process uses specialist steam and pressure washing systems, purpose-built for professional surface cleaning and operating at temperatures and pressures that a domestic machine cannot achieve. This is not simply a case of blasting the surface and hoping for the best. Our methods are chosen to suit your specific surface and its condition, delivering patio cleaning as thoroughly as possible without causing damage.
OUR METHOD
H2O Patio Cleaning
- A site assessment to identify surface types, contamination levels and areas requiring special care
- Pre-treatment of heavy oil staining, biological growth or black spot lichen
- Steam or pressure cleaning tailored to the surface, with settings adjusted to protect softer surfaces, jointing sand and sealant
- Targeted removal of persistent staining, tyre marks and fuel deposits
- Treatment of moss, algae and lichen to inhibit regrowth and restore safe grip
- Sealing recommendation where appropriate, to guard against future staining
- A final inspection before we leave to confirm results meet our standards
Jet Washing It Yourself
- No surface assessment, a one-size-fits-all approach risking permanent damage
- Domestic machines lack the temperature and pressure for a deep, lasting clean
- Wrong settings can strip jointing sand, scar tarmac or etch softer stone
- Oil stains and black spot lichen usually left behind untreated
- No regrowth treatment, so moss and algae return quickly
- No quality check, so results are patchy and may need redoing

Patio Cleaning Questions, Answered
How often should I have my patio professionally cleaned?
Most patios benefit from professional patio cleaning once or twice a year. Shaded, north-facing or damp areas may need more frequent attention to keep moss and algae under control.
Will patio cleaning damage my slabs or stone?
No, provided the correct technique is used for your surface. We assess every patio before cleaning and adjust pressure settings and cleaning agents accordingly, protecting everything from softer sandstone to porcelain and block paving. Where re-sanding or re-pointing is needed afterwards, we’ll advise you before we begin.
Can you remove black spots from my patio?
Yes. Black spots are caused by a type of lichen that embeds its roots into the stone surface, and standard pressure washing alone rarely removes them. Our steam cleaning process, combined with the right pre-treatment, removes black spot lichen from most patio surfaces.
Do you offer patio cleaning nationwide?
Yes. We have teams based across the country and regularly travel to homes nationwide. Contact us to confirm coverage for your location.
How much does patio cleaning cost?
The cost of patio cleaning depends on the size of your patio, the surface type and its current condition, so we provide tailored quotes based on a free site assessment.
