Driveway power washing — Clear, honest pricing for local properties
Welcome to a straightforward pricing page that explains how we charge for driveway cleaning, driveway pressure washing and driveway powerwash services across the gardening company prices area and man and van cost area. We focus on a transparent pricing model so you know exactly what goes into your quote.Our approach balances simple flat-rate elements with variable line-items. Base service fees cover travel, standard equipment, and basic detergents. Variable items cover surface size, soil and oil removal difficulty, and any debris removal charged on a load-based or cubic-yard rates basis. The result is a clear, itemised quote with no hidden extras.
How we price: the components that matter
We combine four clear components so quotes are comparable across the gardening company prices area and man and van cost area: site access and travel, surface area, soil and contaminant level, and debris removal (if required). Each component is shown as a line item so you can see what you are paying for.Transparent pricing model explained
Travel within the local service zone is included in our standard charge. For addresses outside the immediate area we include a clear travel surcharge labelled as the man and van cost area supplement — this is not hidden in the hourly rate but shown as a separate line on the quote.We publish a per-square-metre (or per-square-foot upon request) rate for standard driveway pressure cleaning and a separate per-hour rate for complicated jobs that require special techniques or equipment. For customers who prefer cost-per-job, we provide an all-in quote with the same transparency.
Load-based or cubic-yard rates are used exclusively where material needs removal after washing — for example, heavy gravel, thick mud or accumulated garden waste washed off into catchment areas. Typical listed examples:
- 0.25 cubic yard — small tidy-up after terraced house driveway
- 0.5–1 cubic yard — suburban detached driveway clearance
- 1–2+ cubic yards — larger commercial forecourts or busy high-street block paving jobs
Example jobs and typical pricing (regional averages for the gardening company prices area): A standard terraced house driveway (approx. 12–18 m2) with light staining often falls into the small drive bracket and is priced per square metre from our published rate. For a detached family home with a double drive (30–50 m2) you’ll see a higher square-metre total but often a lower per-metre rate due to scale.
Sample breakdowns (indicative) — for comparison only: Driveway pressure washing of a 15 m2 terraced driveway: base fee + (15 x sqm rate) = itemised quote. A 40 m2 double driveway: base fee + (40 x discounted sqm rate) = reduced per-m2 cost. If man and van cost area applies there will be a travel line item shown clearly.
For busy locations such as high-street forecourts or apartment block entrances we price with an additional access and safety requirement fee. These jobs often require containment and run-off capture which can increase equipment and labour needs — again shown as separate line items.
What affects the final price?
The main factors are surface type (concrete, tarmac, block paving), staining severity (moss and algae vs oil and tyre marks), and whether you want aftercare such as a sealant. We list each of these in the quote so you can remove or add services to match your budget.We also list optional extras such as pet-safe detergents, anti-slip sealing, and deep oil extraction. These are priced per job and included only if requested. This structure is ideal for customers comparing vendors across gardening company prices area listings and those calculating man and van cost area options.
Free quote policy: we offer a free, no-obligation quote across our local zone. Quotes can be provided by a quick onsite appraisal or by a photo-based virtual estimate. All free quotes include a clear itemised PDF that shows the square-metre rate, any cubic-yard debris removal estimate, travel surcharge (if applicable), and proposed start date windows.
Booking and deposits are straightforward: no complex contracts. For larger jobs we may require a small deposit to secure a date — this will be displayed and explained within your quote. We also provide a short checklist in the quote to confirm access, power availability, and any local parking permits that may be necessary.
We guarantee our work quality: the quote will specify what remediation is included if stains persist after the standard service (e.g., return visit with appropriate treatment). That guarantee and any exclusions will be visible as terms within the quote, ensuring clear expectations and no surprises.
