From brick patios in Baywood to plain hardworking concrete in Shoreview, San Mateo driveways and patios collect oil, algae, and years of gray. Hot-water cleaning lifts it at lower pressure — which is exactly why the surfaces survive us looking new.
Your request is on its way to Nick. We'll be in touch within 24 hours.
Real before & afters from this service across the Peninsula.
Hot water does the heavy lifting on hardscape — oil, algae, and years of grime lift at lower pressure, which is what keeps brick mortar intact, paver joints filled, and exposed aggregate stones in place.
Pressure, temperature, and distance get matched to the material: concrete, brick, pavers, flagstone, and aggregate all behave differently, and treating them identically is how surfaces get ruined.
San Mateo specifics: San Mateo runs the full range — downtown bungalows, Baywood and Aragon's tree-lined streets, Hillsdale ranches — and the mix of stucco, wood siding, and older brick keeps every job a little different. We work Baywood, Aragon, San Mateo Park, Hillsdale, and Shoreview regularly.
Common Burlingame service calls: moss removal from shaded roofs, brick walkway restoration in Burlingame Park, driveway cleaning in Easton Addition, and gutter clearing across the whole city after the rainy season.
Moss, algae, lichen and the black streaks on shingle, tile and cedar roofs — removed at the root with low-pressure soft washing. Never a pressure washer on a roof.
Exterior house washing for stucco, wood, Hardie and painted siding. Green algae, black mildew and roofline grime gone — the result of a power wash without the damage.
Hot-water pressure washing that lifts oil, algae, moss and years of grime from concrete, brick, pavers, exposed aggregate and stone — without stripping the surface.
Gutters cleared by hand, every downspout flushed until it runs clear, and a look at the hardware for sagging, pulled spikes or separated seams. Book before the rains.

Typical San Mateo driveways start around a couple hundred dollars and scale with square footage, surface type, and staining. Quotes are free.
Hot water plus degreaser lifts most oil dramatically; very old penetrated stains lighten substantially but may not vanish — we'll tell you straight on site.
With the right pressure, angle, and distance, yes — joints and mortar stay intact. Blasting out joint sand is the classic amateur mistake.
Yes — patios, walkways, steps, and pool decks, often in the same visit as the driveway.
Yes. Concrete and paver walkways, brick patios, exposed-aggregate pool decks, wood decks (at low pressure) and fences are all standard San Mateo work. Tell us every surface you want done and we’ll quote it as one visit.
Most San Mateo driveways take one to three hours depending on size and how heavy the growth or oil is. We use a hot-water surface cleaner rather than a wand, so the finish is even with no stripe marks.
Free estimate within 24 hours. No pressure, no upsell, just a straight answer on what it'll cost and when we can start.
