Protective Your Property: Driveway Cleaning As Preventative Maintenance

The most valuable asset most of us own is our house. Not only is it our home and haven from the work-a-day world but it is our most significant financial investment. When a house is properly maintained and cared for, its value tends to increase over time. If routine maintenance and cleaning chores are ignored or postponed, wear and damage to your property may result in the loss of some of its resale value.

Why Do I Need to Clean My Driveway?

When was the last time you really took a thorough look at your driveway? Are there cracks in it? Do you have weeds and grass growing up through those cracks? Changes in temperature and rainfall during different seasons of the year will exacerbate that damage and make it grow worse over time. With preventative driveway cleaning and maintenance you can prevent the need for major repairs in the future.

We at Andy’s Services provide expert driveway cleaning. We use high pressure water hoses that strip off accumulated grime, dirt, grit, algae and lichens. We also give special attention to scrubbing oil and grease spots, then pressure rinsing them. We provide driveway cleaning for brick, asphalt and concrete plus concrete paver driveway surfaces.

Such regular driveway maintenance is a must if you wish to prevent cracks, pitted spots, pot holes and other types of surface erosion on yours. If you have discovered cracks and other blemishes in your driveway now is the time to schedule a pressure cleaning, before you attempt repairs. Once the driveway is cleaned and thoroughly dry, you may fill in the cracks in its surface with concrete filler or other appropriate patch material.

The Advantages of Regular Driveway Maintenance

When you schedule regular cleaning and maintenance on your driveway, you extend the life of its surface and can make easy and timely repairs that prevent more extensive and expensive damage to it. After a thorough driveway cleaning, it is also recommended that you have a sealer applied to its surface to protect it from weather related damage. If you have an asphalt or black top driveway, you probably already know that sealing it every two or three years is highly recommended to maintain its structure and appearance.

Appearance is an important factor, too, as it affects the curb appeal of your home. Curb appeal, in turn, raises the resale value of your property. Andy’s Services offers free quotes and 100% satisfaction guarantee so contact us today!
