When Should You Pressure Wash Your Driveway and Outdoor Surfaces in Brisbane?

What Is Pressure Washing and When Should You Use It?

Pressure washing is a cleaning method that uses controlled high-pressure water to remove dirt, grime, mould, oil, and stains from hard exterior surfaces.

It is most effective on durable surfaces such as concrete, brick, pavers, and stone, where deep cleaning is required to restore appearance and safety.

When Pressure Washing Is the Right Choice

Pressure washing is recommended when:

  • Driveways have oil stains or tyre marks

  • Pavers are slippery due to algae or mould

  • Concrete areas look dull or heavily soiled

  • Outdoor areas need preparation before sealing or painting

When Pressure Washing Is Not Suitable

High pressure is not appropriate for:

  • Painted surfaces

  • Roof tiles

  • Render or soft cladding

  • Timber decks

In these cases, soft washing is a safer alternative.

Why Professional Pressure Washing Matters

Incorrect pressure levels can damage surfaces, strip finishes, or force water into cracks. Professional services adjust pressure and techniques to suit each surface.
