About patio cleaning

Christie's Exterior Cleaning Ltd cleans patios across Central Scotland — Indian sandstone, natural stone, concrete slabs, block paving and flagged terraces. A patio sits in the shadiest, dampest part of most gardens, which is exactly where algae, moss and ingrained dirt take hold, and the colour of the stone disappears under it a season at a time. Cleaning brings that colour back. Where the pointing between slabs has failed — and on an older patio it usually has — the joints can be raked out and repointed as part of the same job, which is what actually stops weeds and moss returning through the gaps.

Signs you need patio cleaning

Slabs that have gone green, grey or black, stone whose colour you can no longer see, moss and weeds growing up through the joints, pointing that has crumbled or washed out, and slabs that feel slippery after rain. If a sheltered corner under a table is a completely different colour from the rest of the patio, that difference is the dirt.

Our patio cleaning options

Christie's Exterior Cleaning cleans Indian sandstone, natural stone, concrete slabs, flagged terraces and block paving patios. Two things are commonly added once the surface is clean: repointing, where failed joints are raked out and refilled, and sanding and sealing on block paving, using a matt block paving sealer. Patio work is often booked alongside a roof clean or gutter clear, which is cheaper than two separate visits. Call 0131 283 6467 for a fixed-rate quote.

Patio Cleaning for Edinburgh homes

Christie's Exterior Cleaning Ltd cleaned an Indian sandstone patio that came back so well the owners barely recognised it, and has repointed and cleaned old slabs on several properties where the pointing had washed out completely. Shaded, damp patios of exactly that kind are common across Edinburgh and Central Scotland. If you are searching for patio cleaning near me in Central Scotland, Christie's Exterior Cleaning is fully insured with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

What to expect

Christie's Exterior Cleaning looks at the stone type and the state of the pointing before quoting, since a patio needing repointing is a different job from one that just needs a wash. On the day, the patio is cleaned in sections so the whole surface finishes evenly, with edges, steps and joints worked properly rather than skimmed. If repointing is part of the job, joints are raked out and refilled once the surface has dried; if sealing is, the sealer goes on last. Planting and surrounding surfaces are rinsed down before we leave.

  1. Assess the stone type and the condition of the existing pointing.
  2. Clean the patio in sections, working edges, steps and joints properly.
  3. Rake out and repoint failed joints where this is part of the job.
  4. Sand and seal block paving where agreed, then rinse down and tidy.

Patio Cleaning FAQs

Do you offer patio cleaning near me in Central Scotland?

Yes. Christie's Exterior Cleaning cleans patios across Edinburgh and towns throughout Central Scotland, including Indian sandstone, natural stone, slabs and block paving. Call 0131 283 6467 for a free, fixed-rate quote.

Do you repoint patios as well as clean them?

Yes. On an older patio the pointing between slabs has often crumbled or washed out, and cleaning alone leaves those gaps open for weeds and moss. Christie's Exterior Cleaning rakes out and repoints failed joints as part of the job — a clean and repoint together makes a far bigger difference than cleaning on its own.

Can you seal a block paving patio after cleaning?

Yes. Once the surface is clean and dry, kiln-dried sand is worked into the joints and a matt block paving sealer applied. It holds the sand in place, deepens the colour of the blocks and slows how quickly growth comes back.

Will cleaning damage Indian sandstone?

Not when the method is matched to the stone. Natural stone can be marked by too much pressure held too close, so Christie's Exterior Cleaning works the surface at a controlled distance and in sections rather than blasting it.
