H2o Restored is a family-run, fully insured exterior cleaning company covering Kirkby (L32 and L33) from our base in Fazakerley, Liverpool.
We use a 5000 PSI pressure washer with a twin-jet surface cleaner for even coverage, no stripe marks, and sodium hypochlorite where algae’s taken hold, killing it at the root rather than knocking the green off the top. Fresh kiln-dried sand goes back into block paving joints once everything’s dry. Fair pricing, no hidden costs, and if you check our reviews, you’ll see what we mean.
Kirkby homeowners trust us because we’re reliable, we turn up when we say we will, and we don’t cut corners. Whether it’s a driveway job, a patio clean or a full gutter clear, we treat every property like it’s our own. We’re proper local, fully insured, and we don’t pack up till you’re happy. You can see our latest work over on Facebook.
Kirkby grew fast after the war around the old Industrial Estate, and that means a genuine mix of terraced streets and semi-detached houses with decent-sized drives. Our service handles them all. Whether it’s a small yard, a front path or a full driveway, we get the job done properly and leave it looking spotless.
“Peter was very professional, he came down and did my front drive and back patio and they are gleaming. Great job. And at an excellent price.”
From a full driveway clean to restoring your patio and clearing your gutters, we cover all the bases. Keeping a property in good nick round here means staying on top of the moss, algae and dirt that Liverpool’s weather throws at it. Whether it’s a one-off clean or regular maintenance, we’ve got it covered.
A proper driveway clean doesn’t just make your house look better, it gets rid of slippery algae, stops weeds in their tracks and keeps your block paving solid. Pair it with a patio clean and your whole outdoor space looks the part. Add a gutter clean to the mix and your home’s protected from water damage too. It’s the complete package.
Patio Cleaning — We remove green algae and black spot from Indian sandstone, slabs and porcelain using a biocide soft-wash. Safe and thorough.
Driveway Cleaning — We shift moss, oil stains and weeds from block paving, concrete and tarmac with a twin-jet surface cleaner. Your drive will look like it’s just been laid.
Roof Moss Removal — Manual scraping and a biocide treatment to stop moss coming back for years, no pressure washing anywhere near the tiles.
Decking Cleaning — Soft-wash for timber and composite decks at low pressure. No damage, just a proper clean.
Gutter Clearing — High-reach vacuum clearing from the ground to keep your gutters flowing free, downpipes checked every time.
Commercial Washing — We do commercial properties too, by the way.
Don’t just take our word for it, have a read of our reviews to see what Kirkby residents think. We’re proud of our 5.0 star rating.
“Pete came out to give me a price for cleaning the driveway of all the weeds and moss. He said he’d had a cancellation and could do it that day if we wished, so we took him up on the offer. He jet washed the driveway to get rid of the weeds and moss, also treated the driveway with light bleach and biocide to keep the weeds from regrowing for a couple of years. It looks so good. He also threw in a a bit sand for free so we could brush it over ourselves, and he offered to clean our bins which was nice seeing as they were very dirty and stinky. Nice friendly fella, and did a very decent job! Would highly recommend.”

Kirkby is just up the road from our Fazakerley base, so we clean driveways, patios and gutters on every estate from Southdene to Tower Hill, plus the areas next door.
Yes, most of the time. Our driveway cleaning relies on high water flow and a twin-jet surface cleaner to lift dirt and moss without aggressive chemicals. On a typical Kirkby drive, that does most of the hard work on its own, especially on block paving and concrete that has a light to moderate build-up.
Where algae has really taken hold, we use sodium hypochlorite or a biocide in a controlled way, and only where it’s needed. That kills the growth at the root so it doesn’t just come straight back. For stubborn oil stains, we use a specialist degreaser on the affected patches. We always explain what we’re using before we start, and we rinse plants and borders nearby to protect them.
After the clean, we’d recommend driveway sealing to lock the colour in and make future cleaning easier. Every driveway or patio booking in Kirkby also comes with a free bin clean.
We can’t re-lay the patio, but we can certainly improve the situation. Dips usually come from the ground settling underneath over the years, and the low spot stays wet long after the rest has dried. That’s exactly where algae and moss get going, so the dip often ends up being the most slippery part of the whole patio.
Our patio cleaning removes the algae and moss that’s making the surface slippery when wet. Once it’s clean, standing water is at least visible and able to evaporate rather than being hidden under a layer of slime. We’ll also let you know honestly if we think the dip is bad enough to need a paving contractor.
We can also clear surrounding overgrowth with garden restoration to let more airflow and sunlight in, which helps the patio dry out faster. Cutting back overhanging shrubs and hedges makes a real difference in shaded Kirkby gardens.
We can, and we often do them together. Moss grows on the roof tiles, dries out in warmer weather and then slides down into the gutters when it rains. Over time it builds up into a thick mat that blocks the outlets and sends water spilling over the edge, often right above the front door or a window.
Our gutter cleaning vacuums out all the debris from the ground using high-reach poles, and we check the downpipes are running freely before we leave. Roof cleaning removes the source of the problem, the moss on the tiles, by hand scraping rather than pressure washing, followed by a biocide that slows regrowth.
Getting both done at the same time means your gutters stay clear for longer. If we only cleared the gutters, the moss still on the roof would soon wash down and block them again, so tackling both together saves you money in the long run.
Green staining on brickwork is caused by algae thriving in damp, shaded conditions, and Kirkby’s climate suits it well. It’s most common on walls that face north, sit behind hedges or get splashed by overflowing gutters. Once it starts, it spreads across the brick and into the mortar joints, making the whole house look older than it is.
Our brickwork cleaning kills the algae with a biocide and rinses it away using lower pressure, so the face of the brick and the pointing aren’t damaged. The change is usually obvious as soon as the wall is rinsed, and any remaining traces keep fading over the following days as the treatment finishes working.
We can also do fascia cleaning at the same time if the roofline has green streaks too. It’s worth checking the gutters while we’re there, because overflowing water is often what keeps the wall damp in the first place.
The problem is probably ingrained grime and oxidation on the UPVC frames, not the glass. White plastic frames slowly pick up a dull, chalky film from traffic, weather and pollution. When you clean the glass, dirty water from the frames runs straight back down, which is why the windows never seem to stay clean for long.
Our UPVC cleaning uses a specialist cleaner that lifts the dirt from the plastic, leaving the frames much brighter, and we clean the sills and glass too. We take care around seals and rubbers so nothing is damaged, and we can include doors, porches and conservatory frames on the same visit.
If you have a garden deck that’s gone green, decking cleaning uses a soft-wash system that removes algae without damaging the timber. Many Kirkby customers book frames, sills and decking together so the house and garden are finished in one go, with just the one visit to arrange.
Yes, every estate in Kirkby is well within our regular coverage area. We’re only just down the road in Fazakerley, so it’s one of the easiest places for us to get to. We clean driveways, patios and gutters across Southdene, Westvale, Northwood, Tower Hill, Simonswood and the streets around Kirkby town centre and the station.
We also work in the areas right next door, including Melling and Croxteth. Because we’re often in this part of Merseyside, we can usually get to you within a few days of your quote, and we can sometimes fit you in sooner if we have a cancellation nearby.
We’re open seven days a week from 7am to 7pm, so weekend slots are often available if you’re at work during the week. Just tell us what suits when you get in touch. We’ll confirm your slot the day before, and we’ll message you if anything changes, so you’re never left waiting around for us.
Driveways and patios start from £100. The exact price depends on the size of the area, the surface and how much moss, weeds or staining needs shifting. A small front path on a terraced house is quicker than a double drive on a semi, and a surface overrun with weeds takes longer than one with a light green film.
The easiest way to get a firm price is to WhatsApp us a few photos. We’ll take 10% off your quote for doing that, and we usually reply the same day. You can also get in touch through our contact page if you’d prefer. If you’re wondering whether a professional clean is good value, our guide on whether driveway cleaning is worth the cost explains what you get for your money.
Every driveway or patio clean also comes with a free bin clean. We’ll always tell you exactly what’s included before we start, so there are no surprises.
Yes, it’s a standard part of how we finish a block paving clean. Lots of the semi-detached homes in Kirkby have block paved drives, and a deep clean washes out the old sand, moss and weeds from the joints. If those joints are left empty, the blocks can start to move when cars drive over them, and weeds soon find their way back in.
Our driveway sanding refills the joints with kiln-dried sand once the drive is fully dry. The sand is fine and dry, so it flows right down into the gaps and packs in tightly. It locks the blocks together and gives the drive a neat, finished look.
We’ll brush the sand in, sweep off the excess and leave the drive tidy. If the weather turns wet before the surface has dried, we may come back on a dry day to finish the sanding properly, because sand won’t settle into damp joints.
For most homes, once a year keeps the drive in good condition. Drives near trees or hedges, or ones that sit in shade for most of the day, may need cleaning a little more often. Sunny, open drives tend to stay cleaner for longer, especially if they’ve been sanded and sealed.
Leaving it too long lets moss and weeds root deep into the joints, which makes the next clean more involved. A yearly clean keeps things manageable and stops the joints breaking down. Our guide on how often to jet wash your driveway goes into more detail on the signs that a drive needs attention.
Many of our Kirkby customers book their driveway clean in spring, then have their gutters cleared in autumn after the leaves have dropped. It’s a simple routine that keeps the outside of the house looking cared for all year round. We’ll give you an honest view on what your drive actually needs.
No, as long as we can get to the area and use an outside tap. Lots of our Kirkby customers are at work when we visit, so we agree everything beforehand and send photos once the job is done. If you’d rather be there, that’s fine too, and we’re always happy to walk round the finished work with you.
It helps if cars are moved off the drive and any bins, pots or furniture are cleared from the area. We can move small items if needed. Being based just down the road in Fazakerley means we can usually be flexible on arrival times as well.
If you’ve got pets, let us know so we can keep gates closed and work around them. Our driveway cleaning team will always confirm the time with you the day before, and we’ll tell you roughly how long we expect to be there. Most customers come home to a finished job.
Whether you need a driveway clean, a patio refresh or a full gutter clear, we’re here to help. Get in touch for a free, no-obligation quote, no hard sell, just honest advice and a fair price.
