Area is the easy question. The surface material and how long it has been left decide how slow the work is.
Patio cleaning is quoted on area, surface type, condition, access and finishing work. A smooth slab cleaned every couple of years is quick; a porous or textured surface with years of moss is a different job at the same area.
We do not publish a fixed price list for power washing, because area, surface type and how long it has been left all change the job considerably. What we can do is explain what moves the number.
| Factor | Effect |
|---|---|
| Weeds and moss in joints | Hand clearing before washing |
| Years of accumulated growth | Multiple passes |
| Steps and level changes | Slower, more awkward |
| Borders and planting alongside | Protection needed |
| Furniture, pots and planters | Moving and replacing |
| Ingrained stains | Treatment, uncertain result |
| Re-sanding or repointing | Additional finishing stage |

It depends on area, surface material, how long it has been left and the work around the edges — weeds in joints, steps and borders to protect.
Most can, but the pressure must suit the surface. Sandstone, limestone and old reclaimed stone all need care, and damage to them is not repairable.
Generally yes, since set-up spreads further — but slurry, water use, furniture moving and re-sanding all scale directly.
Green algae, black spot and general grime clean up very well. Oil, rust and existing damage are another matter.
Block paving needs re-sanding. Mortared patios may need repointing where the joints have failed.
Optional. On porous stone it slows re-soiling and helps colour, but it needs a fully dry surface and reapplying every few years.
Say so at quotation. It changes the approach — old stone often gives the best result of all, gently, and marks permanently if rushed.
Usually a couple of years, sooner on a shaded terrace. Sweeping leaf litter off over winter slows it considerably.
