Restore the vibrant natural colours and slip-free safety of your outdoor living spaces with our specialist patio restoration services. Operating across Somerset, Dorset, and Devon, our firefighter-led team effectively lifts stubborn black lichen, slick green algae, and deep weather staining from all stone and concrete surfaces with meticulous attention to detail.
Patios are the focal point of outdoor relaxation and entertaining, but the damp British climate quickly takes its toll. Over time, beautiful natural stone, block paving, and concrete slabs become buried under layers of atmospheric grime, moss, and hazardous green algae. Even worse, porous stone often falls victim to “black spots”—stubborn black lichen spores that root themselves deep within the stone matrix. Standard domestic jet washing lacks the refined calibration and professional-grade chemical treatments required to break down these organisms, leading to patchy finishes or eroded jointing mortar.
At Cleanflow Exteriors, we treat patio cleaning as a precise restoration process. We carefully evaluate your specific patio substrate—whether it is delicate Indian sandstone, limestone, porcelain, Yorkstone, or concrete paving slabs—and adjust our commercial variable-pressure equipment to the exact safe parameters required. Guided by our signature emergency-service discipline, we don’t just clear surface dirt; we treat the material to completely eradicate embedded organic spores at the root, preserving your jointing compound and leaving your patio thoroughly sanitized, safe, and beautifully refreshed.
A weathered patio does more than just bring down the aesthetic of your garden; it poses safety risks and speeds up the structural decay of your paving. Relying on our qualified, firefighter-led service delivers key technical advantages that protect your hard landscaping and maximize your outdoor enjoyment.
Damp, shaded patios rapidly grow a micro-layer of green algae and mould that becomes incredibly slick and dangerous when wet. Our deep cleaning process strips this organic slime away entirely, instantly restoring the natural grip and slip-free safety of your stone pathways and seating areas.
Unlike surface dirt, black lichen grows deep inside the pores of the stone and cannot be removed by water pressure alone. We combine our precision machinery with industry-approved pre-treatments that chemically dissolve these stubborn black spots, drawing them out of the stone without damaging its natural texture.
Inexperienced operators using aggressive, uncalibrated pressure washers frequently blast away the pointing or jointing sand between paving slabs, leading to loose, rocking stones. Our variable-pressure approach cleanly lifts dirt from the tile face while preserving the underlying structural mortar.
When moss, weeds, and organic matter are allowed to sit in paving joints, their root systems expand and slowly push slabs apart, creating uneven trip hazards and cracking. Removing this debris early stops structural shifting, saving you from expensive future patio relaying and landscaping costs.

No, because we do not use an uncalibrated, “one-size-fits-all” approach. Natural stones like Indian sandstone or limestone are relatively soft and require precise handling. We use specialized variable-pressure machinery and soft-wash techniques to clean your patio deeply and uniformly without any risk of etching or surface erosion.
Yes, absolutely. Those black marks are black lichen, which bonds biologically to the stone. Standard power washing won’t shift them, but we apply professional-grade, HSE-licensed treatments that break down and completely eradicate the lichen spores at the root level, restoring the stone’s original look.
Yes. If your patio is made of block paving and the cleaning process naturally flushes out some of the loose jointing sand, we offer professional re-sanding once the area is completely dry. This locks the blocks back into position and prevents future structural shifting or weed growth.
We are based in Crewkerne, Somerset, and cover a 45-mile operational radius. This allows us to bring our professional residential and commercial patio cleaning services to homeowners and businesses right across Somerset, Dorset, and Devon.
Yes, we treat property safety with the utmost seriousness. When applying any soft-wash biocide treatments to kill algae or lichen, we thoroughly pre-wet all surrounding lawns and flowerbeds to protect them. Once the cleaning process is complete and the patio is fully rinsed and dry, the area is 100% safe for pets and family members alike.
