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.
