Why isn't a price per square metre enough?
Area is only one cost factor. Access, contamination, surface condition, treatment and joint finishing change the work needed. A simple rate cannot establish those details. Approximate dimensions and broad photographs let the quotation describe your actual job more accurately.
Should a re-sanded drive have no weeds later?
No. Refilling suitable block joints helps maintain the existing paving, but new growth can establish as debris and seeds arrive. It also cannot repair a weak base. Ask about realistic upkeep instead of treating re-sanding as permanent weed prevention.
Can you clean around fixed planters?
Show the planters and describe any area they cover. The accessible surface can be discussed, but a cleaner cannot treat space that equipment cannot reach. Heavy objects should not be moved unsafely to prepare for a quote; agree the boundaries and any exclusions first.
Does cleaning include sealing my driveway?
Do not assume an additional coating is included. The scope should identify the wash, any targeted treatment and suitable joint filling. If you want a particular finish, explain it before booking so suitability and availability can be discussed separately.
What should I mention about previous treatment?
Give the product name if you know it, or explain when it was applied and what now looks patchy. Old coatings can affect the method and appearance. Guessing compatibility or putting another product over the problem is less useful than showing the existing finish clearly.
Can I request a smaller area to keep the cost down?
Identify the exact part you want considered and the reason. It can be quoted as a defined scope, subject to practical access and condition. Be aware of the visual transition between cleaned and untreated sections, and make sure essential finishing is not overlooked.
How do I send photographs for a quote?
Use the WhatsApp link to our mobile, or contact the business by email. Include a full view, approximate size, the worst stains and the route to the work. The contact form is another enquiry route; do not include private gate codes in images or public messages.
