The secret patio cleaning product
We have been selling sodium hypochlorite for many years now. Initially it was the quick and easy way to sanitise a swimming pool especially if the water had turned green. Occasionally gardeners or landscapers would purchase a tub or two to clean a patio or driveway. However, each year the secret gets passed on to the point where we now have a steady flow of customers wanting to make light work of their moss covered area.
The Knowledge
Having discovered the secret cleaning product it is important to now have the knowledge. It is worth researching some of the blogs or You Tube clips that explain in detail how to use Sodium Hypochlorite on your paved area. Elite Jetting have written an informative post describing the best ways to clean a variety of surfaces.
Different stonework responds in different ways to the product and influences the application and strength used. In all cases it is best to try a sample area first to see the outcome and understand what the product is capable of.
One of our best customers, Brinkman Cleaning based in Ascot, uses it for multiple stone surfaces and has developed spray techniques to allow larger areas to be treated. It can also be very effective to freshen up house tiles that have discoloured due to moss and algae build up bringing the tiles back to their original colour. Another local company specialising in a variety of roof cleaning work and a regular purchaser of sodium hypochlorite is Aquaclean Solutions based locally.
Generally sold in 20 or 10 litre tubs for £42 and £24 respectfully.
