Identify the surface and condition
List concrete, pavers, timber, render, paint, stone or other finishes, plus cracks, coatings, joints, stains and previous treatments. Roofs, fragile surfaces and deteriorated finishes need specialist assessment and may not be suitable for high pressure.
Check runoff and site access
Identify water source, slope, drains, gardens, neighbouring property, public paths and electrical fittings. Ask how wastewater and detergents are managed. Elevated areas and busy walkways require safe access and exclusion controls.
Compare the proposed method
Ask about pressure, nozzle, distance, water temperature, detergents, testing and surface protection. Follow material maker instructions; aggressive pressure can remove coatings, jointing material or damage seals. Cleaning will not repair cracks, restore paint or guarantee property value.
Confirm local service terms
Share area size, photos, location, access and desired work when requesting a quote. Confirm included surfaces, preparation, runoff, exclusions, timing and price basis in writing. Do not rely on outdated rate tables or invented testimonials.
