Patio cleaning across Haydock
Soft washing lifts the lichen and algae out of porous stone while harder concrete takes a firmer clean, so the whole patio comes up even in colour without pressure scars.
Behind Haydock’s terraces you find small flagged yards, behind the semis a mix of concrete slabs and Indian sandstone laid over the years, and porcelain showing up on the newer estates. Plenty of gardens here back onto tree lines, old colliery land or the country park, so the flags sit in shade and hold water for days. Black spot lichen loves porous stone in those conditions, and by late autumn a shaded patio can be slick enough to put someone on the floor.

There is no set price list, because what you pay comes down to the size of the patio, the type of stone, and whether black spot lichen has rooted into it or it is just green film.
Yes. Porcelain is common on the newer estates around Knowsley and Widnes, and it needs low pressure and the right detergent rather than brute force. Cleaned correctly it comes up like the day it was laid.
They come out as part of the clean, and the treatment we apply afterwards slows the regrowth right down. If the pointing between your flags is already loose or missing, we’ll point that out at quote stage rather than let the clean take the blame.
