Cleaning Concrete Pavers
When it comes to cleaning your pavers, it’s important to ensure you’re using a gentle solution as to not damage the sealer or coating that’s on top. If you’re worried about stripping away at the sealer, contact The House Washer, we ensure all of our products or non-toxic and biodegradable, without compromising on a beautiful finish.
Effective Paver Cleaning Method
One of the best ways you can clean your pavers at home is with simple household items, ensuring you aren’t out of pocket for a noticeable finish. What do you need?
- Baking soda
- Warm water
- Detergent
- A bucket
Simply fill the bucket with only a cup of baking soda and warm water, then a little bit of your detergent. Before spraying or pouring, ensure you’ve mixed it together quite well. Then, apply it to your pavers and leave it to sit for 30 minutes before scrubbing and rinsing. Look at that beautiful difference!
Do not use acid-based cleaners or solutions – this will damage the sealer that’s protecting your pavers.
Brick Cleaning for Brick Pavers
Brick pavers require a slightly different method for achieving that sparkling finish, but again, this can be done with household items if you’re looking to get it done yourself to keep up with the pavers’ longevity. You will need:
- Vinegar (white, dark will stain)
- Soap with a little water
- Brush
All you need to do is evenly distribute the vinegar over your brick pavers and then leave it to sit for approximately one (1) hour. Once it has soaked, spray your brick pavers with soap and a bit of water before brushing it off. And voila, brick cleaning solutions for brick pavers have never been easier.
Cleaning brickwork and pavers alike don’t have to be difficult – but it’s important to make sure you’re using environmentally sustainable products so that you aren’t harming the nature surrounding the site in question, along with ensuring you aren’t damaging your pavers. This will only strip away at the longevity your pavers will otherwise provide you – which is something we all want to avoid.
