FAQ
Patios & Decking — common questions
Can you clean Indian sandstone?+
Yes. Sandstone is softer than concrete so we dial the pressure right down and lean on chemistry rather than brute force.
Will decking be slippery after cleaning?+
It's wet for a few hours, then no — actually the opposite. Lifting the algae removes the slip risk that builds up over winter.
