Eco Driveway & Patio "Dry Clean" | Worcester | XTX Limited
Water-Free Moss & Weed Removal for Driveways & Patios
Worried about water usage, local hosepipe restrictions, or wasting hundreds of litres on your driveway? You no longer have to put off cleaning your outdoor surfaces in the dry weather.
At XTX Limited, I offer an innovative, Water-Free "Dry Cleaning" & Biocide Treatment across Worcester, Malvern, and Droitwich. Using commercial rotary brush machinery, I clear away heavy moss, turf encroachments, and weeds at ground level - completely without high-pressure jet washing.
The Responsible, Eco-Friendly Alternative
-
100% Hosepipe Ban Compliant: The clean is carried out without the risk of breaching hosepipe restrictions.
-
Save Thousands of Litres: Traditional pressure washing uses between 800 to 1,500 litres of water per job. Mechanical brushing uses zero water*.
-
No Outside Tap Needed: Perfect for courtyards, rented homes, or properties without an external water supply.
-
Easy Access for Tight Spaces: Compact machinery wheels easily through standard doorways, narrow side gates, or directly through the house without dragging heavy, dirty hoses through your house.
-
Protects Joints & Mortar: Trims surface weeds cleanly at ground level without blasting out jointing sand or eroding delicate mortar.
-
Long-Lasting Defense: Finished with an HSE-approved professional biocide treatment that absorbs into surface pores to destroy microscopic spores and delay moss regrowth.
Why Choose "Dry Cleaning" Over Jet Washing?
Save Water While Protecting Your Outdoor Surfaces
During dry spells, high-pressure washing can feel wasteful - and traditional jet washing isn't always necessary for routine moss clearing anyway.
Mechanical dry brushing gives you a pristine driveway or patio without the environmental impact or water guilt or splashback:
How It Works: A 4-Step Process
1. Mechanical Weed & Moss Shearing
I run commercial rotary brushing machinery equipped with counter-rotating wire and poly brushes over your driveway or patio. This shears heavy moss, stubborn weeds, and edge turf down to ground level—reaching into block paving crevices without disturbing the sub-base or using water.
2. Debris Gathering & Disposal
Because high pressure water is not used, there is no splashback all over the house, windows, bins etc. like there can be when pressure washing. I thoroughly sweep, gather, and bag up the dry moss, weeds, and soil, leaving your property clean and tidy.
3. Professional Joint Topping
For block paving surfaces, I sweep fresh, kiln-dried jointing sand back into the joints where needed to maintain full structural interlock and stability. I also offer patio repointing if required.
4. HSE-Approved Biocide Finish
Brushing clears what you can see; biocide handles what you can't. I finish by applying a commercial, HSE-approved residual biocide treatment using a targeted low-volume spray. This absorbs into the surface pores, neutralizing invisible micro-spores to keep moss, algae, and lichen away for up to 12 months.
