Tegula Block Paved Drive, Indian Sandstone Steps

Last week one of the jobs we cleaned was a 110m2 driveway and Indian Sandstone Steps which came up like new. Unfortunately for the client, he had bought his own pressure washer and told his son to clean the driveway - ditto! They started on the Indian Sandstone Steps by the front door which was covered in Black Spot Lichen and Algae. I only wish I could have interviewed the clients' response when he said they tried to do it. With no joy whatsoever we were called in to clean the place up. We were able to successfully clean the driveway and steps in one day and was back to re-sand the driveway at a later date. The sandstone was chemically cleaned removing all traces of black spot lichen without damaging the surface using a pressure washer. The driveway was blasted and also chemically treated to remove the black lichen around and near the trees. I only wish we took close up pictures of sandstone before we started to clean it.

120 Square meter Block Pave Forecourt and Sandstone Patio

Huge driveway/forecourt clean last week measuring over 120m2, we had our work cut out along with the rear patio which was done before the front was cleaned. Very pleased client as the areas were cleaned successfully hassle free and the finish speaks for itself.

Sandstone Patio - Lichen and Algae

Today we're posting a small sandstone rear patio that was covered in algae and some black spot lichen. Before the job was confirmed on arrival for an estimate, the gentleman wasn't sure just how clean we could get the surface when I assured him it would look new again. He took me up on the offer for a free patch demo and the results spoke for themselves.

“Bill from the Big Cleaning Machine is very knowledgeable and professional with his work. I called many different companies before Bill, and he was the only one who explained exactly what the process involved, he even did a couple of test patches. Bill clearly takes a lot of pride in his work and that’s what we really liked. On the day he was very clean as he went about his work. He even cleaned the splashes on our glass doors. The garden patio and decking area came up looking new and we are so pleased.
Anyone reading this, we would highly recommend Big Clean Machine.”

“Bill from the Big Cleaning Machine is a true professional and very knowledgeable when it comes to cleaning and maintaining your driveway and patio. He did a fantastic job on our clay block drive, walls and sandstone patio. He explained exactly what the process involved (depending on level of cleaning required) and also did a couple of test patches. Bill runs his business with integrity and clearly takes a lot of pride in his work. There was no pressure sales techniques applied to book. On the day he was very methodological and clean as he went about his work. The drive and patio came up looking as new. I would whole heartedly recommend Big Clean Machine.”

Very Slippery Sandstone Patio in need of a good clean!

With no direct access to this patio, we had to park our vehicle at the front of the customers property and run our hoses 100m along a side alley that lead to the back garden enabling us to work our magic. From then on, we transformed this patio using our rotary surface cleaner and used our chemical surface cleaning system which got into the pours of the stone safely removing all the black lichen and algae without risk of damaging the surface. Check out the results!
