Black Spot Removal in Newport , Isle of Wight

Many homeowners in Newport attempt to clean their patios with a standard home pressure washer, only to find the black spots return within weeks. Because lichen embeds itself into the stone, it requires more than just high-pressure water to eradicate. Our technical approach involves applying specialised treatments that break down the organic structure of the lichen at the root. By combining this chemical expertise with high-temperature cleaning, we ensure that the growth is fully neutralised rather than just masked, resulting in a deeper, longer-lasting clean for your stone paving.

Restoring your patio or driveway is a multi-stage process that requires care and precision. We begin by assessing the surface type to select the most appropriate cleaning agents that are safe for your specific stone. Our team then applies a professional-grade lichen treatment to target the spores. Once the treatment has taken effect, we use controlled, hot water pressure washing to lift away years of organic buildup, grime, and algae. The result is a revitalised outdoor space that looks as good as the day it was laid.

Beyond the aesthetic disappointment of black spots, these growths often create a significant slip hazard, especially during the wetter months on the Isle of Wight. Algae, moss, and lichen can make pathways and commercial forecourts dangerous for residents and customers alike. Our restoration services not only enhance the kerb appeal of your property but also ensure your outdoor walkways are safe and clean. We serve both residential homes and commercial businesses throughout Newport, providing the peace of mind that comes with a professional, thoroughly sanitised surface.
