Paver patios and driveways accumulate moss, algae, and stains over time, particularly in our damp Oregon climate. Our paver and driveway cleaning uses low‑pressure washing and biodegradable cleaners to remove buildup without destabilizing the paver joints. After cleaning, we apply a premium siloxane treatment to protect the surface from moisture, staining, and freeze‑thaw damage.
Homes in West Linn’s Willamette Heights or Lake Oswego’s Blue Heron neighborhood often feature expansive paver patios and steep driveways that require professional maintenance. We treat brick pavers, concrete pavers, and natural stone surfaces. Our crew also re‑sands joints with polymeric sand to prevent weeds and ant hills. For hillside driveways, we manage runoff carefully to protect landscaping and waterways.
If your driveway has become slick with moss or your patio looks dull, contact us to schedule paver cleaning and treatment in West Linn, Lake Oswego, or the greater Portland area. A properly treated driveway not only enhances curb appeal but also prolongs the life of your hardscape.
Why Clean & Treat Your Pavers & Driveway
Regular cleaning and treatment keep your pavers and driveway looking their best and functioning safely. Oregon’s wet winters encourage the growth of moss and algae on brick, concrete, and natural stone, making surfaces slippery and unattractive. Stains from leaves, rust, oil, and efflorescence also develop over time, discoloring your hardscape and detracting from your property’s curb appeal. Without cleaning, dirt and organic debris can work their way between pavers, encouraging weeds and destabilizing the base.
By periodically cleaning your paver patio or driveway and applying a protective treatment, you protect the surface from moisture, staining, and freeze‑thaw damage. Locking in joint sand helps deter ant mounds and weed growth, and our water‑repellent treatment resists UV fading and enhances the natural color of the brick or stone. Our clean‑and‑treat packages are popular with homeowners in Willamette Heights, Blue Heron, and Palisades who want to preserve the beauty and safety of their outdoor living spaces.
Our Paver & Driveway Cleaning & Treatment Process
We follow a meticulous process to clean and protect your pavers or driveway without damaging the joints or underlying base:
- Inspection & Preparation: We inspect the hardscape for weeds, settling, cracked pavers, and drainage concerns. Any furniture or planters are moved away from the work area.
- Debris Removal & Weed Extraction: Loose debris, leaves, and weeds are removed with blowers, brooms, and hand tools.
- Low-Pressure Washing: Using a surface cleaner and biodegradable detergents, we gently power wash the brick or concrete to break down moss, algae, and stains. Our technicians are careful around edges and landscaping to avoid damaging delicate plants.
- Rinse & Clean-Up: After the cleaner lifts the grime, we rinse all surfaces thoroughly, channeling runoff away from flower beds and storm drains.
- Re-Sanding Joints: Once the surface is dry, we sweep polymeric sand into joints to lock pavers in place and deter weeds and ants.
- Treatment Application (Optional): Finally, we apply a breathable water-repellent treatment to protect against moisture, stains, and freeze‑thaw cycles. This treatment enhances color and provides a slight sheen while still allowing the surface to breathe.
This process is safe for all paver and stone types and is popular among homeowners in hilly neighborhoods like Blue Heron and Palomino Ridge who want to preserve their outdoor living spaces without harming the environment.ur Pavers & Driveway
