Moss, algae, and organic staining on walling doesn`t just affect how your property looks — they can trap moisture, damage surfaces over time on a wall, and create damp issues. At Drive Cleaner, we use specialist cleaning techniques designed specifically for each wall type, ensuring safe, long-lasting results without causing damage.
We never use aggressive pressure washing on walls. Instead, we rely on professional softwashing methods and biocidal treatments that clean at the root of the problem.
Brickwork walls are durable, but are also porous. Moss and black algae grow deep into the surface and mortar joints, meaning improper cleaning can cause serious damage.
Natural stone is one of the most sensitive exterior surfaces. Each type of stone reacts differently, which is why specialist knowledge is essential.
