2026-10-10 · Driveway care advice
A driveway can look tired for several different reasons. Dirt and algae on the surface are different from peeling paint, worn coatings or damaged concrete.
When pressure washing may be enough
If the underlying concrete or paving is sound and the main problem is built-up dirt, a suitable pressure-cleaning method may restore its appearance. The cleaning pressure and nozzle choice should match the surface.
When restoration needs more work
Peeling paint, worn coatings and certain stains may require extra preparation. Repainting and sealing are not interchangeable, and not every surface is suitable for either treatment.
