concrete Pressure cleaning
concrete cleaning at a glance:
Concrete, unlike other surfaces on your property, cannot be cleaned easily or by traditional means. Pressure cleaning offers an effective and safe way to remove decades-old stains that are tarnishing the appearance of your home. A freshly cleaned driveway, pathway, or patio is one of the best ways to revitalise your home’s outdoor space and even increase the value of your property for a low-cost, stress free option.
common questions we hear from clients:
Satisfying viral videos aside, using a pressure washer yourself can potentially crack your concrete and cause irreparable damage. A professional can clean away decades of stains and dirt without this risk.
We are the Gold Coast’s longest running, fully qualified, and insured pressure cleaning company. Our technicians are meticulous in their service, and we take the utmost care around your property.
No, we adjust our water pressure to be powerful enough to remove stains, but leave your concrete undamaged. Additionally, we use nozzles that spread water over a surface area, rather than force pressure on cracks.
Anything that’s made of concrete! For most of our clients, this means driveways, patios, spaces surrounding the pool, pathways through gardens, etc.
do i need to hire a professional to clean my concrete?
We’ve all seen the viral pressure cleaning videos on social media labeled as satisfying; but these omit the fact that concrete can still be deeply and irreparably damaged by a pressure cleaner in the wrong hands.
Ironically, when concrete is looking it’s worst with cracks already in place, is when it’s most suspectable to damage from unqualified pressure cleaning. These cracks can destabilise concrete’s strength and stability. All it takes is one misplaced pressure wash, or a wash with the pressure too high, to cause thousands of dollars in damages.
These are all facts that a professional and qualified pressure cleaner like Wally’s Master Blaster keep in mind.
A professional would also consider the following:
The angle that pressure cleaning must be applied at, the pressure of water, heat levels, and how long a concrete surface can sustain this force during a wash.
When concrete needs a high pressure clean vs a chemical soft wash.
Professional pressure cleaners will have tools (pictured left) that spread the force of the water over an area, leading to greatly reduced risk of long-term damage.

does pressure cleaning damage my concrete?
Concrete should never be damaged by pressure cleaning, as long as it is applied by a qualified professional. As the Gold Coast’s longest running pressure cleaners, we have over thirty five years of experience in keeping our client’s concrete driveways, pathways, and patios clean and safe.
There a number of ways we ensure the safety of your concrete when carrying out your service:
Our technicians configure the pressure on our state-of-the-art pressure cleaners to apply enough force to blast away dirt, but not cause ‘etching’ or damage to your concrete.
We always inspect the condition of your concrete before starting any washing; this lets us see if there are any cracks or weakened areas that may be a damage risk.
Our team accurately and methodically applies a pre-soak and soft wash before pressure cleaning, meaning we only need to spend a short time pressure washing which lowers the risk of damage.
We are fully certified to operate heavy machinery related to pressure cleaning, such as cherry pickers, to reach all concrete surfaces and apply a careful and precise clean that ensures long-lasting results.
