Driveway cleaning

Clear the black algae, mold, oil and rust stains that trigger HOA notices — and get matched with one vetted local pro, never sold to five.

What driveway cleaning covers

A professional driveway clean removes the streaky black algae (Gloeocapsa magma), mold and mildew that subtropical humidity feeds, plus the stains specific to driveways: oil and grease where cars park, and the orange rust thrown by iron-rich irrigation and well water. Pros use a soft-wash chemical treatment rather than a bare pressure blast, because it kills the spores that otherwise regrow within weeks — and an optional seal keeps it cleaner for longer.

Why it matters for HOA homes

In Florida’s deed-restricted and master-planned communities, a stained driveway is among the most common violation notices — and those come with deadlines and fines. Cleaning is non-discretionary and time-sensitive, which is exactly why getting one fast, exclusive quote beats fielding calls from five companies.

Common questions

Driveway cleaning FAQs

Can I still clean my driveway during a Florida water restriction?+

Generally yes for biological growth. Under 2026 SWFWMD orders, removing mold, mildew and algae is permitted maintenance, while purely aesthetic high-pressure washing is restricted. Soft washing uses little water and targets the growth. Always verify the current rules with your water management district.

Why is a dirty driveway an HOA problem in Florida?+

In deed-restricted and master-planned communities, a stained driveway is one of the most common violation notices — and notices come with a cure-by date and possible fines. Cleaning is often non-discretionary, which is why a fast, exclusive quote matters.

Soft wash or pressure wash for a driveway?+

Soft washing (low pressure plus chemistry) kills algae and mold at the root, so it lasts longer and uses less water than high-pressure blasting, which can leave spores behind that regrow within weeks. Pros pick the method to fit the surface and stain.

How often should a Florida driveway be cleaned?+

With year-round subtropical humidity, many homeowners clean every 9 to 18 months, sooner in shade or near heavy irrigation. Sealing after cleaning slows regrowth and helps the driveway stay HOA-clean between visits.

How much does driveway cleaning cost?+

It depends on size (car count), surface, how heavy the staining is, and add-ons like oil, rust and sealing. Use the free calculator on any city page for a local range, then get one exact quote from a vetted pro.
