A little regular maintenance keeps a patio looking sharp for years, whatever material it's made from. Here's what genuinely works for Highbridge gardens.
Routine Cleaning
Sweeping regularly to clear leaves and debris, followed by an occasional wash with water and a mild detergent, keeps most patio surfaces looking fresh without much effort.
Maintenance by Material
- Porcelain — minimal maintenance, occasional sweep and wash is usually enough
- Indian sandstone — benefits from periodic sealing every 2-3 years
- Block paving — occasional re-sanding of joints and weed treatment
- Resin bound — simple sweeping, with no joints for weeds to establish
Dealing With Moss and Algae
Damp, shaded areas of a patio are more prone to moss and algae build-up. A suitable patio cleaner, used according to instructions, along with improving drainage where possible, helps keep this under control.
When to Call in Help
Routine cleaning goes a long way, but if you're seeing widespread staining, sunken areas or significant weed growth across your Highbridge patio, it's worth having it properly assessed rather than working around the issues.
