Driveway cleaning for St Ives homes
St Ives is in the Ku-ring-gai Council area, about 25 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights. The housing is mostly large post-war and contemporary family homes on generous blocks, with pools, long driveways and established gardens. Concrete tile and terracotta roofs are common, and so is the moss on their shaded side.
Street and garden trees drop leaves that stain concrete and pavers brown, and moss grows where the driveway stays shaded. Both need treating, not just washing.
Exposed aggregate, honed concrete and stone setts each need a different pressure. We test on the first metre before doing the rest.
Concrete tiles lose their surface coating over the years and get porous, which is when moss and lichen take hold.
How often in St Ives
For most St Ives homes, driveways is worth doing every 12 months. Shade, leaf litter and damp bring growth back sooner.
What affects the quote in St Ives
- Bush debris: gutters and roofs may need clearing before washing.
- Tree canopy: leaf litter and tannin stains often need a separate treatment.
- Pools: run-off has to be kept out of the water, and coping is often a different stone from the terrace.
Every quote is fixed and itemised by surface after a quick inspection.

How often should driveways be done in St Ives?
For most homes in St Ives, every 12 months. Homes under trees need it more often.
Do you offer driveways across St Ives?

Mostly bush debris; tree canopy; pools. We inspect first and give you a fixed price, itemised by surface.
Can concrete roof tiles be pressure cleaned?
We don't pressure clean any roof. Concrete tiles get the same treatment as the rest, and it kills the growth off over about 12 months without wearing the tiles.
Can you clean my driveway and house on the same day?
Yes. Most St Ives jobs combine the house, driveway and paths in one visit.
How long until I can drive on it again?
Straight after we finish. A cleaned driveway only needs to dry, which takes an hour or two in the sun. If it's being sealed, allow at least 24 hours before driving on it.
