Central Florida is hard on concrete. Between the heat, the humidity, the strong sun, and the heavy summer storms, algae and mildew take hold fast on driveways and paver flatwork, and the big overhanging oaks so many homes sit under drop debris that only feeds that growth. Over time it dulls and darkens the surface until a driveway that started out light looks years older than it is.
We clean it off with a 36-inch surface cleaner run by high-output machines, which gives an even finish across the whole slab, then treat the surface so it stays clean well after we leave. Here at Holliday’s Pressure Washing Services, we have been doing this work in the Longwood area for years, and the goal on every driveway is the same: get it back to the color it should be.
If you want a driveway that looks clean again, give us a call at (407) 276-1343 and we will get you a written quote.
We match the cleaning method to the surface, and we size complex driveways with a measurement app so the quote reflects the real area rather than a guess.
A few things set our driveway work apart beyond the finished result.
Reach out through the online quote form or by phone or text, and the office answers and gathers the details on that first contact. A quick discovery call clarifies exactly what the driveway needs, whether that is general algae buildup, oil, or rust. We size the driveway with a measurement app, including complex U-shaped or wraparound layouts, then send a detailed written estimate priced by square footage, with realistic outcomes for any oil or rust put in writing before you approve anything.
Once you approve the estimate, you are placed on the schedule with a confirmed date. On the day of service, the crew texts an arrival time so you know when we will be there.
The crew hooks up water and runs the 36-inch surface cleaner powered by the high-GPM machines, a 17 GPM and an 8 GPM unit that can be Siamesed together for higher combined output. That combination gives an even, edge-to-edge finish with no wand striping down the slab.
Pre-existing oil or grease gets a commercial-grade degreaser, a stiff-brush scrub, a 20-minute dwell, and hot water up to about 250°F. Rust is treated with oxalic acid at its minimum effective strength. Older oil that has soaked deep into the concrete can leave a shadow behind, which we are upfront about in the estimate.
After the driveway is clean, we post-treat it with sodium hypochlorite so it stays cleaner longer, and a pump-up sprayer handles any stubborn spots that need one more pass.
We send before-and-after photos, a digital invoice, and a secure online payment link by text or email. A few days later, the office follows up with a happy call to make sure everything still looks right, because if something is off, we want the chance to come back and take care of it.
We treat oil and grease with a commercial-grade degreaser, a stiff-brush scrub, a 20-minute dwell, and hot water up to about 250°F. The longer oil has soaked into concrete, the more likely a shadow remains, so we put realistic expectations in writing before any work begins. We don’t guarantee 100% removal.
Most residential driveways finish in about fifteen minutes to an hour and a half. The 36-inch surface cleaner and high-output machines move quickly, so the time mostly comes down to size and condition. Larger or more complex driveways, or ones that need oil or rust treatment, sit at the longer end.
Getting started is simple: reach out and we will send a free, detailed written estimate with no obligation. Longwood driveways take a beating from the sun, the storms, and the oaks, and we would be glad to get yours looking right again. Call us at (407) 276-1343 to set it up.
