From Victorian terraces to large suburban estates, Newport homes all have outdoor surfaces that take a beating. Front paths, tiled steps, driveways and back patios gather algae, moss and grime, and the dirt is most noticeable at the front of the house. Our power washing service cleans all of them, and brings the original colour back to paving, concrete and stone.
Whether you have a narrow terrace frontage or a wide block-paved drive, the process is the same. We check the surface, choose the right pressure, protect plants and doors, and finish with a tidy site. We also cover Caerleon, Bettws, Rogerstone, Maindee and Duffryn, as well as other neighbourhoods across the city.
Many Newport terraces open straight onto a short path or a few steps, and in older streets the surfaces might be tiles, stone or concrete. They are walked on daily, splashed by rain and shaded by the house, so they pick up dirt quickly. A clean doorstep makes a big difference to how a house looks, and it is a modest job that can be finished neatly.
Victorian tiles and stone need a lighter hand than modern concrete, since grout can wash out and glazing can be dulled. We test first, start gently and increase only if the surface allows. Narrow frontages also call for care with run-off, so we keep water away from the door, neighbouring boundaries and pavement as much as we can. Tidy work matters on a narrow terrace.
Mature street trees across Newport and leafy streets near parks bring shade and debris, and cars parked on the drive add oil and tyre marks to the mix. Larger suburban plots might have a wide drive, a patio, a path to the garage and a run of decking. We take each of these in turn, adapting technique to the surface rather than relying on one setting for everything.
On block paving we can re-sand the joints and seal afterwards, which helps keep weeds out and slows staining. Concrete is cleaned in even passes to avoid a striped finish. Decking gets a gentler wash along the grain. Throughout, we protect plants, pots and doors, and we are straightforward about what a wash can and cannot remove. Honesty beats overpromising. We would sooner under-promise.
Tell us what sort of property you have, which areas you would like cleaned and roughly how large they are. If access is tight or you are on a terrace, mention that as well. We will suggest a sensible plan, work through it carefully and clear up afterwards, so your Newport frontage and garden look cared for again without a lot of fuss.
A few jobs we have completed. We also work in and around Newport.
Power WashingWe pressure washed the red block paving at the back of a brick house in Pontypool, then began applying a seal.

Most South Wales patios need a proper clean about once a year, though shade, damp and nearby trees can mean more often or a little less.

Tree surgery is priced job by job rather than from a fixed list, so this guide explains what moves the cost up or down and how to get a firm figure.

There is no single perfect month for every tree, but winter suits many species, and this guide shows how timing, nesting birds and weather affect the choice.
Read the guide →Often we can. Victorian tiles are delicate, so we test a small area first and use a gentle setting. If the glaze or grout is in poor condition, we will say so and suggest the safest way to freshen them up.
Fresh or light marks can improve a lot, but old oil soaks deep into concrete and block paving and may remain faintly visible. We will do what is sensible and tell you honestly what to expect before we start.
Yes. If there is no side access, we will talk about the easiest route, which could be through the house or along a back lane. We keep equipment tidy and protect floors and doorways if we need to pass through.
Tell us what needs doing and where. We will come back to you, or call 07766 919630 if it is urgent.
