Pressure Washing In Kankakee & Will County , IL
Driveways, sidewalks, patios, and decks cleaned with commercial surface cleaners for an even finish with no wand stripes. Most driveways are done in under two hours.
An Even Finish
Wand Stripes Are A Choice, Not A Result
Anyone can rent a machine and put a zebra pattern on a driveway. Getting concrete evenly clean takes a surface cleaner, the right tip and pressure for the material, and pre treating the stains that water alone will not touch.
We pre treat oil, rust, and organic growth, run the surface cleaner in overlapping passes, then rinse the edges and detail the borders by hand. The result is one consistent color across the whole slab.
- Concrete driveways
- Sidewalks and walkways
- Patios and pool decks
- Exposed aggregate
- Paver and brick surfaces
- Stamped concrete
- Wood and composite decks
- Garage floors and aprons
Problem Areas
Stains We Treat Before The Main Pass
Water pressure alone does not touch most of what makes concrete look bad.
Oil & Grease
Drips under the car and grease near the grill need a degreaser and dwell time. We treat those spots first so they lift instead of just lightening.
Rust & Fertilizer
Orange staining from sprinklers, fertilizer, and metal furniture takes a dedicated rust remover. Pressure alone drives it deeper into the pores.
Algae & Moss
The green film on shaded walks and patios is alive and slick. We kill it rather than blasting it loose, so it stays gone through the season.
Care Around The House
Cleaning Concrete Without Wrecking Everything Near It
Runoff from a driveway carries whatever came off it. We route and rinse so it does not pool in beds or run into the garage, and landscaping along the edges gets wet down before we start.
Softer materials get softer treatment. Wood decks, older pavers, and stamped concrete come down in pressure, because a clean surface with furred wood or blown out joint sand is not a win.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Most residential jobs run $150 to $400 depending on square footage and condition. A standard two car driveway usually falls in the $150 to $225 range. Adding a patio or walkway in the same visit costs less than booking it separately.
Not when the pressure matches the surface. Concrete in sound condition handles a surface cleaner without trouble. Older, spalling, or previously sealed concrete gets lower pressure, and we tell you up front if a surface is too far gone to improve safely.
Usually. Fresh oil comes up well with a degreaser and hot rinse. Older stains that have soaked deep into the pores can lighten substantially without disappearing completely. We tell you what to expect before we start rather than after.
Sealing helps concrete resist staining and freeze damage, and cleaning is the right time to do it since the surface has to be clean and dry first. Ask when we quote and we will tell you whether your slab is a good candidate.
Yes, at much lower pressure than concrete. Wood needs a gentle approach and the right cleaner so the grain does not fur up. Composite decking gets a soft wash rather than a pressure wash.
Once a year keeps most driveways and walkways ahead of organic growth in this climate. Shaded areas under trees and north facing walks may need it more often, especially where moss makes the surface slick.
