How a Driveway Is Cleaned
Pre-Treatment
Mildew and algae get a cleaner first, so the green doesn't come back in a few weeks.
Surface Cleaner
A rotary surface cleaner spins under a hood and gives an even finish. A wand alone leaves "zebra stripes."
Edges and Joints
Edges, expansion joints and steps are detailed by hand.
Post-Treatment Rinse
A final rinse and post-treatment help the slab stay clean longer.
Stains Need Their Own Treatment
Oil
Fresh drips lift with a degreaser and hot water. Old, soaked-in stains often lighten a lot but may not disappear.
Rust and Red Clay
Mineral stains come out with specialty cleaners, not pressure. See rust and red clay stain removal.
Tire Marks
Hot-tire marks on garage aprons usually lighten with a degreaser.
Leaf and Pine Tannin
Brown shadows from leaves and pine needles fade with the right cleaner and some sun.
Where the Washwater Goes
Driveway water runs to the street, and the street drains to storm drains. The City of Columbia's stormwater guide says only rain water may enter storm drains. For residential exterior washing with just soap and water, the guide allows discharge to a lawn or planted area with the owner's permission. Degreasers and stain cleaners change that, so ask how the crew handles runoff.
Sealing After Cleaning
A penetrating or film-forming sealer slows staining and mildew. Sealer type, slip resistance and cure time belong on the quote, and the slab needs to dry fully first.
