Residential Pressure Washing Cost — UK Price Guide
Home pressure washing in the UK typically costs from £59 for a small path or single-car driveway up to £495+ for large block paving driveways or extensive patios and decking. The final price depends on the surface area, type, and how much moss, algae or weathering has built up. Below is our transparent price guide for common home jobs.

What affects the cost of home pressure washing?
- Surface area (m²) — the single biggest driver.
- Surface type — block paving, concrete, tarmac, resin-bound and natural stone each need different pressure, nozzles and care.
- Soiling level — light green algae vs heavy moss, oil, rust or bird droppings.
- Re-sanding — block paving usually benefits from kiln-dried sand after a deep clean; we can include it in the quote.
- Sealing — optional sealer after cleaning extends the life of the result by 1–3 years.
- Access — accessible front driveways are straightforward; through-house access to rear patios may add a small charge.

Frequently asked questions
How much does driveway pressure washing cost in the UK?
For a typical single-car driveway (15–40m²), £95–£195. Larger double driveways run £195–£350. Most UK homeowners budget £5–£10 per m² for a thorough pressure wash.
Will pressure washing damage my block paving?
Not if it’s done properly. We use calibrated pressure and rotary heads for even coverage. Block paving does lose some of its kiln-dried sand after a deep clean — we can re-sand for you at the same time.
Can you pressure wash resin-bound driveways?
Yes — carefully. Resin-bound surfaces need low-pressure or soft-wash treatment to protect the resin matrix. We don’t use high-pressure on resin.
Do you remove oil stains and tyre marks?
Yes — oil and tyre stains usually need a pre-treatment before the main clean. We’ll assess and quote upfront so there are no surprises.
How often should driveways and patios be pressure washed?
Most UK homes benefit from an annual clean, usually in spring or early summer. Shaded patios with persistent green algae may need twice-yearly cleans.
Do I need to be home?
Not for external-only jobs with garden access. We’ll message before arrival and send before/after photos when done.
Can you also clean decking?
Yes — timber decking needs a low-pressure technique and careful nozzle selection to avoid furring the wood grain. Composite decking cleans very well with standard pressure.
Do you offer sealing after cleaning?
Yes — a good block-paving or slab sealer extends the clean result by 1–3 years and makes future cleans easier. Quoted alongside the clean.
