Concrete Cleaning
in Jefferson & Surrounding Counties

We usually use the homeowner’s water supply for concrete cleaning because it provides the steady flow needed for larger concrete areas. We can bring up to 275 gallons if absolutely necessary, but this is only practical for very small jobs due to tank limitations.

Most concrete cleaning jobs take around an hour, depending on the size and layout. We can clean close to 2,000 square feet per hour when the concrete is well-suited for our larger surface cleaner. Intricate layouts or heavy buildup may extend the time slightly.

Concrete is the primary surface we clean because it’s the most common in East Tennessee. Other surfaces may require different methods or chemicals, so we evaluate them individually before accepting the job. If we can’t clean a surface safely, we’ll let you know upfront.

Severely cracked or broken concrete may not be safe to clean, as the surface cleaner can catch on loose areas. We inspect the concrete beforehand and let you know if any sections are too damaged to wash safely. This prevents unintended wear and protects our equipment.

Standard concrete cleaning won’t remove red clay stains, and even acid-based methods (which we don’t offer) usually don’t yield long-lasting results. In East Tennessee, red clay often returns after rain unless the underlying drainage issue is corrected. Most homeowners choose not to pursue red clay removal for this reason.

Oil stains can be lightened but not fully removed. Older or deeper stains normally leave a faint shadow even after treatment. We make sure you know what level of improvement to expect before beginning the cleaning.

We take steps to prevent runoff from reaching storm drains during concrete cleaning. If needed, we block or redirect flow so everything stays on the property. This is especially important in commercial settings where grease or oil buildup is more common.

Yes — once the concrete is fully rinsed, the cleaning solution is safe for plants and pets. We protect vegetation by rinsing before, during, and after application to avoid any chemical damage.

Yes, as long as the concrete surface is accessible and safe for our equipment. East Tennessee properties often have slopes, and we’re used to working around them. Cleaning becomes limited only when the incline prevents safe equipment operation.

Commercial concrete develops buildup more quickly and benefits from regular maintenance. We recommend a recurring schedule — weekly, monthly, or quarterly depending on traffic and grease levels. Routine cleaning helps avoid deep staining and reduces long-term cleaning costs.
