1. Regular Cleaning is the Key

[/vc_column_text][gem_dropcap shape=”circle” letter=”O” color=”#ffffff” background_color=”#d52327″][vc_column_text]ur driveways, like our homes, can be the victim of everyday dirt and debris. Simple actions, such as taking a few moments to sweep your driveway, can make a significant difference.

Regular cleaning prevents small particles, leaves, and dust from accumulating.

A good rinse with your garden hose once a week, or after particularly windy or rainy days, can help wash away any residue.

In autumn, when trees shed leaves or post-storm (take Storm Babet for example), a more thorough clean might be necessary.

Using your garden hose with a bit more pressure or even considering a jet wash can be very effective during these times.

It’s like giving your driveway a refreshing shower![/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][vc_column offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md” css=”.vc_custom_1549007352488{padding-top: 0px !important;}”][gem_divider margin_top=”28″][/vc_column][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1549006883993{padding-top: 0px !important;}” offset=”vc_col-md-6″][gem_image style=”3″ position=”centered” effects_enabled=”1″ src=”2212″][gem_button text=”Contact StoneSet” position=”center” style=”outline” corner=”3″ size=”medium” border=”2″ icon_pack=”elegant” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stonesetresin.co.uk%2Fcontact-us%2F|title:Contact%20us” text_color=”#000000″ hover_text_color=”#ffffff” hover_background_color=”#d52327″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1627575409265{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 120px !important;padding-bottom: 95px !important;}” el_id=”tarcom”][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1549006883993{padding-top: 0px !important;}” offset=”vc_col-md-6″][gem_image style=”3″ position=”centered” effects_enabled=”1″ src=”2051″][/vc_column][vc_column offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md” css=”.vc_custom_1549007352488{padding-top: 0px !important;}”][gem_divider margin_top=”28″][/vc_column][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1599164345448{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;}” offset=”vc_col-md-6″][gem_divider margin_top=”34″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1699454613646{margin-top: -10px !important;}”]

2. Addressing Spills and Stains

From a minor car oil leak to the odd splatter from a garden project, your driveway might sometimes get a few stains. The trick is to act fast.

The quicker you address these spills, the easier they’ll be to manage. For most stains, a good blast with your garden hose or jet washer should do the trick.

Being proactive and tending to these spills when they occur can save you time and effort in the long run.

If the worst happens, we would always recommend purchasing a specifically made cleaner, such as this one, from Pavetuf, perfect from removing stubborn greasy stains and heavy soiling.[/vc_column_text][gem_button text=”Contact StoneSet” position=”center” style=”outline” corner=”3″ size=”medium” border=”2″ icon_pack=”elegant” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stonesetresin.co.uk%2Fcontact-us%2F|title:Contact%20us” text_color=”#000000″ hover_text_color=”#ffffff” hover_background_color=”#d52327″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row disable_element=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1599929270690{margin-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1599163897780{margin-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1599928480843{margin-top: -10px !important;}”]
