Our paving had some black marks that never shifted when I washed it. Ashley explained that they needed assessing rather than just turning the pressure up.

We agreed the treatment as part of the work. Most are much less noticeable now and the whole patio looks better. I thought the explanation and the result were both reasonable.

A proper clean of some fairly ordinary concrete slabs. Nothing fancy needed.

They got on with it and took the muck away when they'd finished. Worth paying someone else to do it.

Moved the table afterwards and didn't find a dirty rectangle underneath. They'd cleaned the whole area we'd agreed, which sounds obvious but mattered to me.

We'd already cleared the pots and table, so they could see the whole area. Some horrible patches underneath where things had been standing.

Those have come up well and the patio looks much more even. I thought we'd end up hiding the same bits again, but there's no need.

Ours is a fairly big area and I wanted the whole thing done, right down to the narrow section behind the garage. We walked round before they started so there was no confusion.

They covered it all. I checked the far end afterwards and it had received the same attention as the bit by the house. Decent work, and they took care of the clearing up too.

We'd inherited the patio with the house and weren't sure what the stone was. Elephant checked it before recommending the clean.

That reassured me because I'd been reluctant to put any shop-bought product on it. The colours are showing through nicely now.

We'd tried scrubbing the porcelain ourselves but kept leaving it streaky. It's looking much better after this clean, particularly near the doors where the dirt showed most.

Nice to have that job out of the way.

A neighbour passed on the number. I rang, arranged the clean and had the patio done without any difficulty.

The men were courteous and cleared away the mess they made. I am satisfied with the work and thought the charge was reasonable.

I liked being able to choose just the clean. I'd asked about sealing, then decided against it, and nobody made me feel I was making a mistake.

A sensible quote and no mess left for me. I'd use them again.

Second time booking them. Still easy to deal with and the patio looks good.

Didn't need to remind them about the narrow bit beside the raised bed either.

We bought new garden furniture and suddenly the patio underneath looked dreadful. I'd allowed money for cushions and all sorts but hadn't thought about cleaning the actual paving.

Very glad we did. The slabs have come up beautifully, including the area where the old storage box stood. It feels like the furniture belongs there now. Booking was easy and the price was what we'd agreed.

I asked whether sealing was necessary and received a straightforward explanation of what it might do for our particular paving. We decided against it for now.

The clean alone has made a worthwhile difference, especially along the sheltered edge where dirt had built up. I appreciated being able to discuss an option without feeling obliged to buy it.

There was a white patch I'd assumed would wash away with everything else. They explained beforehand that it appeared to be a mineral deposit rather than ordinary dirt, so I knew not to expect it to disappear with the clean.

It's still there, but the rest of the patio has improved enormously. I appreciated being told before the work rather than asking awkward questions afterwards. The garden looks cared for again.

Second visit from these lads. Same straightforward service as before.

We cleared the furniture, they cleaned the agreed area and tidied up afterwards. I had a look once it was dry and was happy with it. Their number's staying in my phone.
