During Roof Cleaning
Over time your patio will look tired due to the accumulation of dirt, weeds and moss etc., Cotec can rejuvenation your patio to that ‘New Look Again’ using Softwashing for that quick clean
or Pressure Washing.
Softwashing is a very effective non-pressure chemical cleaning system.
What is Soft Washing?
It’s the application of Lightning Cleanze which is a specialised chemical combination of a biodegradable surfactant and Sodium Hypochlorite. The waste product contains no free chlorine
and it quickly breaks down into essentially salt and water during or after use and the surfactant is fully biodegradable also Lightning Cleanze does not bio-accumulate.
Lightning Cleanze is fully approved by both the Irish Pesticides Registration & Control Service (PCS) and UK Health & Safety Executive (HSE) for use as a soft washing biocide in Ireland
and the UK.
Pressure Washing?
This is the use of high-pressure water to remove the dirt from the patio with the use of a rotary cleaner and a turbo lance. This system produces outstanding results reviving your patio
There is the option to use Super-Heated Water those ultra-stubborn stains on the drive or we may combine the Softwash system the pressure wash.
The end result will be outstanding no matter what system we use to clean your patio and to keep it looking good for many years it is wise to consider the application of a sealer.
Patio Rejuvenation & Protection
It is possible with some patios to clean and re-colour but it does depend on the stone.
However with the majority a sealer can be applied after cleaning which can enhance the
colour of the stone.
Residual weed killer:
These weed killers render the soil inactive and should only be used in non plated areas. Residual herbicides sit in the soil for months preventing any form of growth from taking place.
However lesser plants such as algae and lichens are unaffected by these herbicides and may require biocide treatments.

What Type of Surfaces can be cleaned?
The cleaning method of choice is high pressure washing for the cleaning of patio surfaces such as imprinted concrete, block paving, natural stone, stone flags, concrete slabs where
there is no or little mould contamination. A combination of pressure washing and softwashing can be used very effectively to clean the majority of patio surface where there is black
mould contamination. There is also the option of superheated water for the more contamination surface.
Cleaning the patio will return it to that new look again but to prolong the look it is worthwhile considering the application of K-Seal Patio Sealer which will provide excellent protection for
Pavers, Sandstone and Slab surfaces after cleaning due to its advanced acrylic formulation. Natural Stone can be enhanced by the application of Resiblock Indian Sandstone Sealer which
will provide long lasting protection.

Block Pavers
The joints between the block or flags can be filled with Kingfisher’s Block Fill which is a moisture curing grout that
will not wash out and also inhibits weed growth although more expensive than kiln dried sand the benefits are
worthwhile. The product is brushed in just like Kiln dried but has the advantage of curing to a hard finish which
helps prevent weed and moss growth.
