Your driveway is the very first thing visitors notice about your property, yet it constantly endures the heaviest wear and tear from vehicles, foot traffic, and the unpredictable British weather. Over time, block paving, tarmac, concrete, and resin driveways naturally accumulate a heavy buildup of weeds, thick moss, slick green algae, and unsightly vehicle fluid stains. Once these elements take root in the joints and pores of the surface, they don’t just ruin the look of your home; they actively accelerate structural damage, causing shifting blocks, cracks, and uneven surfaces that can become a trip hazard.
Maintaining a clean driveway can feel like a never-ending battle. Pulling weeds by hand or treating them with domestic weedkiller only provides a temporary fix, as the underlying organic spores remain deeply embedded in the jointing sand.
Weed seeds and moss spores thrive in the damp sand between block paving, quickly turning a premium driveway into an untidy, overgrown mess. Our high-velocity rotary cleaning completely flushes out these deep-rooted weeds and organic matter from the joints, destroying the root systems entirely.
Leaking engine oil and fluid spills sink deep into porous driveway materials like concrete and block paving, leaving dark, permanent blemishes. We utilize specialized, commercial-grade emulsifiers and targeted chemical treatments to break down and draw out embedded oil stains, restoring the uniform color of your driveway.
When driveway joints lose their sand due to weathering or aggressive, unguided pressure washing, the blocks lose their structural lock and begin to shift, sink, or wobble under vehicle weight. We prevent this by explicitly re-sanding every block paving driveway we clean, locking the entire structural matrix back into place.
At A Bligh Exterior Cleaning Ltd, our mission is to provide top-tier exterior cleaning services that enhance the beauty and value of properties in Portsmouth. We’re committed to exceptional results with every job — using eco-friendly, safe methods that protect both your property and the environment.

Have a question about our professional cleaning services? Below, we have compiled answers to the most common queries we receive from homeowners and businesses across Portsmouth.
Yes, absolutely. High-pressure washing naturally flushes out the old, dirty jointing sand alongside the weeds and moss. Once the driveway has dried completely, we sweep premium, kiln-dried jointing sand into the joints to fully restore the structural integrity of the paving and lock the blocks firmly in position.
While we cannot guarantee 100% removal of very old, deeply embedded oil that has structurally degraded the stone, we carry out advanced oil remediation treatments using specialized chemical breakdown agents. This allows us to significantly fade or completely eliminate the vast majority of vehicle fluid stains.
Unlike standard pressure washing which just cuts off the tops of weeds, we treat the driveway with professional-grade residual biocides from PureSeal. This treatment sanitizes the surface, penetrates deep into the joints, and kills off the microscopic spores, drastically delaying weed, moss, and algae regrowth.
No, because we adjust our techniques according to the surface material. Tarmac can easily be scarred or stripped of its aggregate stones if subjected to excessive, concentrated pressure. We use specialized low-pressure nozzles and flat-surface cleaners to gently but effectively wash tarmac driveways without disrupting the surface bond.
You can walk on the driveway immediately after we finish. However, if your driveway is block paving, we strongly recommend keeping vehicles off the surface until we have returned to complete the re-sanding process, which must be done when the weather is entirely dry to ensure the sand settles correctly.
