Pressure Washing in Lewes
Pressure washing (also called jet washing) is high-pressure water cleaning of hard outdoor surfaces — driveways, patios, paths and block paving — to lift moss, algae, oil marks and ground-in dirt and restore the surface's original appearance, priced per square metre or as a fixed job for a defined area.
In Lewes, that covers Cliffe, Southover, Landport, Nevill, Malling, Wallands. Lewes is the historic county town of East Sussex, built on a steep hillside above the River Ouse within the South Downs National Park, with a dense concentration of listed and historic buildings in its centre.

FAQs
Pressure Washing in Lewes: FAQs
Do you provide pressure washing across all of Lewes?
Yes, we cover the BN7 postcode area in full, including Cliffe, Southover, Landport, Nevill, Malling, Wallands.
Will pressure washing damage my block paving or patio?
Not when the pressure is set correctly for the surface — we calibrate this to the material, and for more delicate or aged surfaces we reduce pressure or use an alternative method rather than risk damage.
How long does a cleaned driveway stay moss- and algae-free?
This varies with location, shade and drainage, but re-sanding block paving joints and an optional sealant after cleaning both help slow regrowth compared with cleaning alone — we can advise on both when we visit.
How does South Downs National Park status affect building work in Lewes?
Development within the National Park is assessed with particular regard to landscape character and setting, alongside normal planning policy. Combined with the town's conservation area and listed building status, this means early advice is particularly valuable in Lewes.
