The Problem

Nobody notices it happening

Concrete goes grey a shade at a time. Pollen in the spring, tire film in the summer, algae in the shade under the oak, and a slow layer of everything that washes down off the roof. It never looks dirty on any given day — it just looks a little older every year.

Then it gets cleaned, and the homeowner finds out the driveway was never grey. It was tan. The walkway matched the house. The pool deck was two shades lighter than the coping.

Almost none of what we remove is a stain. It's build-up, and build-up comes off.

Honest Limits

What comes out, and what doesn't

Cleaning removes build-up. It does not remove everything, and we'd rather tell you that now than after you've paid.

  • —Comes out: algae, mildew, pollen, dirt, tire film, and general greying
  • —Usually improves a lot: rust from sprinkler heads and furniture feet, older oil drips
  • —Improves, rarely disappears: deep-set oil in porous or older slabs
  • —Won't change: paint spills, cracks, spalling, and permanent discoloration in the concrete itself

Send a photo of anything you're worried about and we'll tell you honestly what to expect before we quote it.

The Visit

Four hours, start to finish, on most driveways

  1. Measure from photos

    Square footage and condition. Most flatwork prices without a site visit.

  2. Protect and pre-treat

    Beds pre-wet, fixtures covered, and organic growth given solution and dwell time.

  3. Surface clean

    Overlapping passes at constant height, then edges and joints detailed by hand.

  4. Rinse and walk it

    Everything rinsed down and away, then walked with you before we pack up.

Service Areas

Driveways we clean

Long side drives, shared alley access, and circle drives — we've priced all of them across these neighborhoods.

Bellaire and West U shared drives get quoted as one run, not split down the middle. Coordinate with your neighbor and it's cheaper for both of you.

FAQ

Concrete cleaning questions

Why does my concrete look striped after someone else cleaned it?
That's wand striping — it comes from cleaning flatwork with a narrow spray tip instead of a surface cleaner. The clean stripes are where the tip passed and the darker bands are where it didn't. It's avoidable, and it's why we use a surface cleaner on every slab.
Can you clean a shared driveway?
Yes, and it usually makes sense to do the whole run at once. Bellaire and West U are full of shared drives — talk to your neighbor and we'll quote the full width.
Will cleaning damage the surface of the concrete?
Not with the method we use. Damage on flatwork usually comes from holding a narrow tip too close for too long. A surface cleaner holds a fixed distance and moves continuously, which is what keeps the finish intact.
What about rust and oil?
Rust from sprinkler heads and furniture feet usually improves significantly. Oil depends on age and how porous the slab is — recent drips often come out entirely, older ones may leave a shadow. Send a photo and we'll be straight with you.
Do you clean pool decks?
Yes. Pool decks and coping are common for us, and the pressure gets adjusted for the surface — travertine, flagstone, and stamped concrete all get treated differently than a broom-finish driveway.
How often should concrete be cleaned in Houston?
Once a year keeps most driveways looking right. Shaded flatwork under oak canopy grows algae back faster and often needs it twice.
