Patio Cleaning & Restoration in Barnard Castle
North-facing patios in Barnard Castle suffer the worst from algae and slime — they never get sun to dry. We pre-treat with biocide, deep clean, and apply a specialist anti-algae sealer designed for shaded County Durham gardens.
Why Choose Us for Patio Cleaning & Restoration in Barnard Castle
Sandstone-Safe Pressure & Chemistry
We don't blast sandstone with the same kit as block paving. Specialist heads, lower pressure, and stone-safe cleaners protect the surface.
Joint Restoration Included
Clean stone with dark failed joints still looks tired. We rake out failed pointing and re-fill with a colour-matched joint compound.
Anti-Algae Sealers for Shaded Patios
North-facing patios need specialist sealers with biocide. We use them as standard so algae stays away for years.
Honest Restore vs Replace Advice
