The service

The right pressure for every surface.

Pressure washing isn’t one-size-fits-all. Too much pressure damages surfaces, too little wastes time. Established concrete can take it, timber and sealed pavers can’t, and sandstone needs a soft wash instead. We get the balance right for each surface on your property.

It removes years of mould, algae, dirt and mineral staining, and it’s the most efficient way to clean hard surfaces. Everything on the day is protected first, and you check the result with us before we pack up.

What you get

  • Pressure adjusted to each surface
  • Pre-treatment for oil and organic growth
  • Driveways, paths, patios, pavers and pool surrounds
  • Soft wash for anything delicate
  • Fully insured

Done properly

Surface by surface

Plain concrete

Driveways, paths and slabs get pre-treated, then a rotary surface cleaner gives an even, streak-free finish edge to edge.

Exposed aggregate and decorative concrete

Too much pressure pops stones and scars the finish. We drop the pressure, widen the fan and let the pre-treatment work.

Pavers and brick

The joints matter. We keep the sand where it belongs as much as possible, and re-sand where it needs topping up.

Natural stone and sandstone

Soft, porous and unforgiving of high pressure. These surfaces get a soft wash approach so the growth dies and rinses away gently.

The process on the day

We confirm the scope at the door, protect gardens and furniture, pre-treat stains, clean, then walk it with you. You approve the result before we leave.

Then keep it that way

Bare concrete starts collecting oil and moss again from day one. Sealing locks in the result for years.

Jack did a brilliant job on a very complex driveway clean. From beginning to end he was prompt, friendly and kept me informed on everything that he was going to do, how he was going to do it and was super informative of all of the costs involved. The turn around of coming to inspect the driveway to quoting and then getting the job done was extremely quick. I would 1000% recommend Jack to anyone and will definitely use his services again.

FAQ

Good questions. Straight answers.

How much does pressure washing cost in Hobart?

Most residential jobs fall between $199 and $600, depending on the area and surface. You get a fixed price before any work starts.

Can pressure washing damage my surfaces?

Not when it’s done properly. Established concrete takes higher pressure, timber and pavers need less, and delicate surfaces get a soft wash. Matching the method to the surface is the whole job.

What surfaces can you pressure wash?

Concrete driveways, paths, pool surrounds, pavers, tiles, brick, timber decks and more. If you’re not sure, just ask.

How long does it take?

A standard driveway takes 2 to 4 hours. Larger or heavily soiled areas take longer, and we’ll give you an estimate with the quote.

How long until I can use it?

Straight away if it’s just been cleaned. If we’ve sealed it, we’ll let you know exactly when it’s ready to walk and drive on, as that depends on the sealer and the weather.

How often should I get it done?

Every 12 to 18 months keeps most Hobart properties looking good. Shaded, damp areas may need it more often, and sealing afterwards can stretch it out by a number of years.
