Driveway and concrete cleaning in the greater Columbia area
Concrete is the one surface that wants real pressure, and this is where the owner brings it. A surface cleaner takes the whole driveway down to an even finish with no stripes, the edges are trimmed by hand, and oil and mildew get their own treatment before the water ever starts.
Included in every concrete and driveways job
Driveways, walks, patios, pool decks and steps. If it is concrete, pavers or stone, it is on the list.
- Pre-treated so mildew and algae let go instead of being ground in.
- Surface-cleaned with a rotary head, which is why there are no wand stripes when it dries.
- Edges and corners done by hand where the surface cleaner cannot reach.
- Oil spots treated with the right product. Some stains lighten rather than vanish, and we tell you which before we start.
- Post-treated so the green stays away longer.
- Rinsed clean, nothing left on the lawn, the beds or the street.
Why a surface cleaner, not a wand
A wand cleans a strip a few inches wide, and every pass overlaps the last a little differently. When the concrete dries you see every stroke. A surface cleaner spins two jets under a hood at a fixed height, so the whole slab gets the same pressure and comes out one even color.
The pressure is chosen for the surface. Old broom-finished concrete takes more, exposed aggregate and pavers take less, and stamped or sealed concrete gets the gentlest setting so the finish survives. That judgement is the owner's, on site, every time.
Some marks are not dirt. Oil that has soaked in for years and tannin from leaves each need a different treatment, and a few will only lighten. You hear that from us before we start, not after.
By the area, from satellite
Driveway, walks and patio are measured from satellite photos. A fixed price before anyone unrolls a hose.
Pavers and concrete sealed on request
Paver joints get fresh sand after cleaning so they lock back in. Sealing for pavers and concrete is quoted separately once the surface is clean and dry.

What customers say
★★★★★Responded immediately to my online quote and scheduling, along with having a great price. Came out within a few days of calling him during what's likely his busiest season. My house and roof look amazing and I would highly recommend him to anyone needing this service.
★★★★★Jeremy took my wood deck from shabby to beautiful! He really had his work cut out for him and I am completely impressed with the outcome. Definitely recommend this service for awesome results.
Want it sealed after the clean?
That is Jeremy sealing a sidewalk he had just cleaned. Concrete gets a penetrating sealer that soaks in rather than sitting on top. It repels water and salt and protects the slab from the freeze-thaw cycle that opens up cracks on cold winter nights.
The seal lasts five to eight years. Ask for sealing on your quote, or read more about paver and concrete sealing.
Questions we get asked
Will it damage my plants?
Beds get soaked before we start and rinsed again after, which dilutes anything that reaches them. Tell us about anything delicate and we cover it.
How often should a house be washed?
In the greater Columbia area's humidity, most homes want it every 12 to 18 months. Shaded and tree-lined lots are closer to 12.
Do I need to be home?
No, as long as we can get to the whole property, with any gates left open, and reach an outside tap. We text before we arrive and again when we finish, with photos.
What if it rains?
We reschedule at no charge. Rain after the wash is fine. The work is already done by then.
Will it get the oil stain out?
Fresh oil usually comes out. Oil that has soaked in for years lightens but rarely disappears, and we tell you which yours is before we start.
Can you clean a sealed or stamped driveway?
Yes, at a lower pressure so the sealer and the pattern survive. Tell us it is sealed when you ask for a quote.
Often booked with concrete and driveways
