Driveway cleaning in Jacksonville, NC
A driveway cleaned with a wand ends up striped. A driveway cleaned with a rotary surface cleaner ends up even.
Concrete holds onto everything — organic growth in the pores, oil from vehicles, rust bleed from irrigation water, and the general grey film that builds over a few seasons. It is also the first thing anyone sees when they pull up to the house.
We clean driveways with a rotary surface cleaner rather than a wand. The head keeps a consistent distance and overlap across the whole slab, so the finish is uniform instead of showing the arc marks that a hand-held wand leaves behind. Edges, expansion joints and the apron are then detailed by hand.
What this service covers
- Concrete driveways, aprons and parking pads
- Expansion joints, edges and garage thresholds
- Attached walkways and the path to the front door
- Oil spot treatment and rust stain treatment where present
- Post-rinse of adjacent landscaping and hard surfaces
Stains that need separate treatment
- Motor oil and transmission fluid, which need a degreaser and dwell time
- Rust and irrigation bleed, treated chemically rather than with pressure
- Battery acid and fertiliser burn, which may lighten but not fully clear
- Paint, sealer failure and tyre polymer marks, assessed case by case

Questions about driveway cleaning
Will pressure washing damage my concrete?
Sound concrete handles it. What causes damage is holding a narrow jet in one spot, working too close, or cleaning concrete that is already spalling or has failing sealer. We check the slab first and tell you if cleaning is likely to lift material.
Can you get oil stains out completely?
Often, but not always. Fresh oil usually comes out. Oil that has been soaking into porous concrete for years has penetrated below the surface, and cleaning lifts what is reachable. We will tell you what we expect before we start rather than after.
