Professional Patio Cleaning Clare and Limerick
If your patio has gone green, you’re not alone and it’s not your fault. Patios get the worst of it right across Clare and Limerick. They sit flat so water hangs about, they’re shaded by the house for half the day, and they collect leaves, spills and general muck that breaks down into exactly what algae and moss are looking for.
Premier Power Washing Services cleans patios right across Clare and Limerick, and we’ve over 500 jobs behind us in the two counties. Most customers say the same thing afterwards: they’d been pricing up a whole new patio before they rang.
There are usually three things on a neglected patio and they need different handling. The even green film is algae, which comes away easily enough. The black and orange spotting that won’t brush off is lichen, anchored down into the surface, so force alone just takes the top off it. The springy stuff in the joints is moss, and that’s the one doing real damage, because it holds water against the edge of every slab all winter.
So we treat first, then wash. A professional biocide goes on wherever growth is established and gets time to work, which kills it at the root. Skip that step and your patio looks great in April and green again by August. It’s the single biggest reason a cheap job doesn’t last.
Then we wash with a rotary surface cleaner rather than an open lance, which gives an even finish across the whole area instead of the arcs and stripes you get from waving a wand about. Pressure is set by what your patio is made of, not by what the machine can do. Concrete and dense stone take a proper going over. Sandstone, limestone, older slabs and anything sealed or coloured get worked far more gently.
Joints get sorted before we go. Washing lifts the sand out from between slabs, sometimes deliberately where weeds have rooted in it, and we brush fresh kiln-dried sand back in and compact it. Leave that undone and the slabs start shifting underfoot.
Then a proper rinse so nothing dries back as a tidemark, and we’re away.
Ring us for a free quote anywhere in Clare or Limerick. We’ll tell you honestly what your patio will look like afterwards, and if it’s not worth doing this year, we’ll say that too.
We clean every kind of patio across the two counties: concrete slabs, natural stone, block paving, printed concrete, porcelain and the older mixed-up patios you find on farmhouses where three different materials meet in the middle. Each one gets treated according to what it actually is.
And we’re happy to look at paths, steps and any paved area around the same visit while we’re set up, which works out far cheaper than booking them separately.
How often should a patio be done? Honestly, it depends on where it sits. A sunny, open patio can go years. One tucked in behind the house with planting over it will want attention every couple of seasons. We’ll tell you what’s realistic for yours rather than quoting you a standard interval that suits our diary.
Why Choose Us for Patio Cleaning?
Patios are the job people most often try themselves, and we get plenty of calls from folk who wish we’d been there first.
The hire shop machine isn’t the villain here, in fairness. It’s grand in the hands of somebody who knows what a surface will take. Trouble is it arrives with no heat, no treatment and no way of putting the jointing sand back, so you end up with slabs etched with lines, empty joints and the green back by late summer. None of that is a lack of effort.
Here’s what you get from us instead.
We know when to ease off. Everyone here is trained to identify what they’re standing on, test somewhere out of sight, and use the gentlest setting that actually works. It takes longer and it’s the difference between restoring a patio and wearing it out.
Furniture moved and put back where it was. Sounds obvious. Cleaning around a table leaves an outline you’ll be looking at for years.
Your planting looked after. Beds get soaked with clean water and covered before anything goes on, pots get shifted, and we decide where the run-off goes rather than letting it find its own way into a border.
Treatment and re-sanding included as standard, itemised on the quote so you can see it there. If another price comes in cheaper, that’s usually what’s missing from it.
Fully insured, certificate whenever you’d like to see it.
5 star rated on Google, and we’d honestly rather you went and checked than took our word for it.
We walk it with you before the van gets loaded. If there’s a corner you’re not happy with, we’d far sooner sort it there and then than hear about it next week.
We’re a local outfit with a genuine reputation to look after, not a franchise passing your details along to whoever’s nearest. The patios we did two summers ago are still there to be looked at, which is a fairly honest way to be judged.
Give us a ring and we’ll come and have a look at it.
We turn up when we say we will, with a realistic arrival window rather than a vague morning or afternoon, and you get a call if anything changes.
We also take before and after photos on every job. Partly for you, partly because patios are the most satisfying work we do and we’re quietly proud of a few of them. Ask and we’ll send you a set from a job near you.
Over 500 jobs completed across Clare and Limerick, and most of our work now comes from people passing our number on.
And if something isn’t right afterwards, just ring us. We’d far rather come back and put it straight than have you telling the neighbours about it. That’s always seemed the simpler way to run things.
One more promise: we won’t leave a patio half done. If the weather closes in partway through, we come back and finish it at no extra cost rather than calling it complete and hoping you don’t spot the difference between the two halves.

Cost of Patio Cleaning Clare and Limerick
Patio cleaning prices vary more than people expect between two patios that look much the same, so here’s what actually moves the figure.
How long since anybody last did it. This matters far more than the size. A patio done in the last couple of years takes one straightforward pass. Left ten years, the same patio needs a treatment, time for it to work, repeat passes over ingrained lichen and a lot more jointing sand. Same square metres, several times the hours. It’s why a photo of the actual patio tells us more than a measurement does.
What it’s made of. Hard-wearing concrete lets us move at a steady pace. Porous stone, older slabs, coloured finishes and anything previously sealed need slower, gentler work.
The joints. Anywhere sand has been used it comes out during the wash and has to go back in and be compacted, and on a big patio with deep joints that’s a real quantity of material and real time. Mortar in poor repair needs careful handling instead.
Getting to it. Everything has to be carried to the patio and back again, so access through the house, up steps or from a van parked out on the road adds time before a drop of water gets used.
Good news is, this only gets expensive once. The first clean of a patio left for a decade is the dearest it’ll ever be. Come back to it every couple of seasons and it’s a short visit at a fraction of the cost, because the growth never gets established in the joints again.
Worth knowing too: a small job carries a higher rate per square metre than a big one, since setting up takes the same time either way. If you’ve a patio and paths, or a patio and a driveway, doing the lot in one visit is far better value than two separate bookings.
Sealing is priced separately if you want it, and only ever after the patio’s been cleaned and dried out fully.
Free written quotes across Clare and Limerick, from a visit or a few clear photos. No obligation, no hard sell, and if the honest answer is that half of it will do, that’s what we’ll quote for.
One more thing customers appreciate: no disappearing discounts. You won’t get a price that expires at the end of the phone call. The figure we quote is the figure, it stays open while you think about it and compare it, and nobody from here will ring to ask whether you’ve decided.
We’re fully insured and every quotation is written down, so you know exactly what’s included before anything starts.
If it helps, send us a couple of photos when you first make contact, including one of the worst bit rather than the tidiest corner. We can usually give you a very close idea of price before anyone travels anywhere, which saves your time and stops us guessing.
Commercial Patio Cleaning Clare and Limerick
Outdoor space earns money for a lot of businesses, and a tired-looking one costs you covers. Premier Power Washing Services looks after outdoor seating areas, terraces, beer gardens and paved frontages for premises throughout Clare and Limerick.
Customers decide whether to sit down before they sit down. If the ground under the tables is green and the edges are mossy, that decision gets made for you. There’s a safety side as well, since staff carry trays across it and customers walk it with a drink in hand, and algae on a flat surface in wet weather is genuinely slippery.
Hospitality areas get dirty in a way domestic patios don’t. Spilt drink is the main culprit and it’s sneakier than it looks, because sugars soak into porous paving and keep feeding growth long after the surface looks dry. That’s exactly why the ground under the tables goes green faster than the open area beside it. Add cigarette debris, food waste and grease walked out from the kitchen and you’ve a surface no amount of brushing will fix.
All of that responds far better to heat and the right detergent than to brute force. Trying to blast grease off just damages the paving and leaves a shadow behind anyway. We check what we’re using against whatever hygiene conditions your premises works under before anything goes near a service area, a bin store or a drain.
We work around your trade, not the other way round. Early mornings, quiet weekdays, closed periods, or in sections so part of the area stays open while we do the rest. Taking a whole beer garden out of use on a fine weekend costs you far more than the job costs.
Everything documented before we arrive, and the area barriered, signed and handed back safe to use with the furniture put back where it was.
Most hospitality customers settle into a rhythm after the first clean: a proper one before the season and a lighter one partway through. Together they cost less and disrupt less than one heavy rescue every few years, and the place looks well all season rather than just after a blitz.
Care homes, schools, offices with staff terraces and apartment developments across both counties get looked after the same way.
Free site survey and a written quote covering scope, phasing and timing. Give us a call.
We can also phase a larger site across the year, starting with whatever your customers actually walk on and bringing the back-of-house areas onto the same cycle afterwards. Spreads the cost and gets the visible bit sorted straight away.
One contact, invoicing to suit however you already do things, and a photographic record after every visit for your own file.
We’re fully insured with certification available before we attend, and we’ll work in alongside your other contractors if you’ve painters or landscapers booked. Just tell us and we’ll fit into the right point in the sequence.
Most of our commercial customers came from another commercial customer mentioning us, which is the only kind of marketing we’ve ever really needed.
Areas We Cover
We cover all of Clare and Limerick, and there’s no travel charge whichever end of either county you’re in.
Most patio enquiries arrive in a bit of a rush, and it’s always the same story. There’s a communion, a wedding, a birthday or the in-laws coming, and somebody has looked properly at the back garden for the first time since October. Completely understandable, and here’s the thing worth knowing: everyone has that realisation at the same time.
From April into July our diary fills faster than at any other point in the year. A fortnight’s notice in May buys a lot less than a fortnight’s notice in February. If you’ve a date in mind, book early and you’ll get the slot you want.
Allow a bit of margin as well. A cleaned patio needs to dry properly before the furniture goes back on it, and fresh jointing sand is better left to settle before chairs start getting dragged about. A job squeezed in the day before an event never looks as good as the same job with two weeks behind it.
No date in mind? The quieter months are genuinely better value for availability, and there’s no reason to avoid autumn or winter as long as it isn’t freezing. A patio cleaned and treated before winter goes into the wet months with nothing holding water in the joints, which is exactly when the damage happens.
Searching patio cleaning near me from either county? You’re inside our patch, whether that’s a housing estate in town or a farmhouse at the end of a lane. Our vans carry their own water and power, so a private well, a meter or no outside tap makes no odds at all. Just mention it when booking if the access is awkward, through the house or up steps, and we’ll bring the right kit.
And we’ll be straight with you about what a clean will and won’t fix. It brings a patio back to the condition the material is genuinely in, which on a well-laid one is close to how it looked when new. Cracked or sunken slabs, rust marks and oil that soaked in years ago won’t come back, and we’ll point that out at the quote rather than let you find out afterwards.
Ring us or message through the website. Free quote, honest answer, no obligation.
We look after homeowners, landlords, letting agents and businesses right across both counties, and no patio is too small to be worth a phone call. Even if you only want an opinion on whether it’s worth doing at all, we’re happy to give you one.
One last thing. We’re not in the business of talking anybody into work. If a light treatment would do, that’s what we’ll quote for. Nearly all our work across Clare and Limerick comes back to us through recommendations, and that only keeps happening if people feel they got value the first time.
Give us a ring, send a few photos, and we’ll come back to you with a straight figure for the work you actually need doing.
