Why Alresford paving goes green
Shade and damp are the cause. A patio under a mature tree rarely dries out between autumn and spring, and algae spreads across it in a slippery film. Leaves left lying on the slabs stain them brown, and moss fills the joints of block paving. Near the creek, the moist air makes it worse.
Driveways on the bungalow roads tend to be in more open positions, but they still collect moss along the shaded edges, beside hedges and fences, and in the strip where a car is always parked.
Patios, paths and the creek-side gardens
The gardens on the sides of the village closest to Alresford Creek are often lovely and private, but that privacy comes from trees and hedges, and paving beneath them rarely sees the sun in winter. Slabs turn green, then darken, then become slippery enough to be a hazard on the way to the shed or the washing line.
Front drives on the bungalow roads are usually easier, sitting in the open. They still pick up tyre marks and moss along the edges, and a wash brings back the colour of the block paving. Paving next to garden ponds is washed carefully, with the spray directed away from the water.
How we clean your paving
We check the surface over first, looking for loose slabs or soft spots. Large areas are done section by section, each pass overlapping the last. Water is kept away from the house wherever we can manage it. A last rinse and a tidy-up finish the job.
Joint sand after a wash
Block paving on Alresford drives is laid with sand in the joints, and a thorough wash can loosen some of it along with the moss and weeds. We’ll let you know if your paving would benefit from having the joints topped up afterwards, so it stays firm and the weeds don’t move straight back in.

Pressure washing in Alresford: your questions
Can you clean a patio that’s under trees all year?
Yes. Shaded patios are where cleaning makes the biggest difference. They’ll green up again sooner than sunny ones, so keeping leaves swept off helps.
Do you need photos to quote?
They help. A couple of photos and rough measurements usually let us price it without a visit.
Can you clean a small area?
Yes. Small paths and patios are quoted just like larger ones.
