Green paths and slippery patios are a familiar sight in Crowthorne gardens, where shade from the pines keeps hard surfaces damp for long stretches of the year. We jet wash driveways, patios, paths and slabs to remove moss, algae and ground-in dirt, then re-sand block paving joints and apply a sealer if you'd like. For render, cladding and delicate stone we use soft washing instead, a low-pressure clean with a treatment that kills algae rather than just blasting it off. Garden walls, fences and decking can be cleaned too. It's a quick way to make a Crowthorne home look smarter and make outdoor spaces safer underfoot.
Why jet washing matters in Crowthorne
The sandy soil that lets Crowthorne's pines thrive drains quickly, but the shade they cast keeps patios and paths damp, and needles break down into a dark film that algae grows on. Decking under trees can become dangerously slick, and the shady side of a fence or wall often goes green within a year or two. At Buckler's Park, many homes combine block-paved drives with rendered elevations. The drives respond well to a jet wash and re-sand, while render, including K-Rend, needs a soft wash with a treatment so the surface isn't damaged. In the older parts of the village, brick paths, garden walls and stone steps can be fragile, so we use lower pressure or soft washing to protect the mortar and surface. Whatever the surface, we choose the method that cleans it properly without causing harm, and we can seal block paving afterwards to keep it looking cleaner for longer.

Jet Washing & Soft Washing in Crowthorne — FAQs
Can you clean the render on my Buckler's Park home?
Yes. We soft wash render, including K-Rend, using low pressure and a treatment that kills the algae behind the green streaks. It's the right approach for the rendered finishes on many Crowthorne new builds, and it avoids the damage a pressure washer can cause.
Can you make my decking less slippery?
Yes. Decking under Crowthorne's trees often grows a slippery layer of algae. We clean it to remove the build-up, which makes it much safer to walk on. Keeping it clear of fallen needles afterwards helps it stay that way for longer.
What is soft washing?
A low-pressure clean using a treatment that kills algae and staining on render and delicate surfaces.
How long does a driveway take?
Most driveways are done in a day, including re-sanding if you have chosen it.
