Driveway & Concrete Cleaning in Mobile, AL
Concrete is where dirt shows most. Years of Gulf Coast rain and shade leave driveways blotched with black and green, sidewalks slick with algae, and patios stained by leaves, mildew, and the occasional rust ring from a sprinkler or a forgotten planter. It builds up so gradually most people stop seeing it — until the clean strip after a wash shows just how gray it had gotten.
We clean flatwork with a surface cleaner, not just a wand. That's the flat spinning tool that cleans concrete in even passes, so you get one uniform, bright surface instead of the zebra stripes a bare pressure-washer tip leaves behind. Driveways, sidewalks, patios, pool decks, and paver areas come back looking close to new — and we treat organic stains so the algae doesn't just grow straight back.

How it works
Send a photo or describe it
A picture of the driveway or patio usually gets you a ballpark price on the first call.
On-site quote
We measure the square footage, check for stains that need special treatment, and give you one written price.
Pre-treat and surface clean
Organic growth is treated, then the whole surface is cleaned in even passes for a uniform finish.
Rinse and detail edges
We rinse debris off, hit the edges and corners the surface cleaner can't reach, and clear the runoff.
Why Gulf Coast concrete turns black and green
The black and green on Mobile-area concrete is almost always organic — algae, mildew, and lichen feeding on constant moisture. Our rain, humidity, and heavy tree cover keep flatwork damp for days, especially anywhere shaded by live oaks or on the north side of the house. Add falling leaves and acorns that leave tannin stains, and pine pollen that yellows everything each spring, and concrete here gets dirty fast.
Because the staining is living growth, rinsing alone doesn't fix it — it comes right back. We pre-treat the surface so the cleaning actually kills the algae, which is the difference between concrete that stays bright for a year and concrete that greens up again by the next rainy month. Where a sprinkler or metal furniture has left a rust ring, that's a different stain and gets a different treatment; we'll tell you honestly what will lift and what won't.
Driveway & Concrete questions
How much does driveway cleaning cost in Mobile?
A standard two-car driveway typically runs $100–$200, with larger driveways, sidewalks, and patios priced by the square foot. Bundling the driveway, walkways, and a patio in one visit usually brings the per-area price down. You get a written price first.
Can you get the black stains and tire marks out?
The black organic staining comes up well with surface cleaning and pre-treatment — that's most of what makes a driveway look dirty. Rust, old oil, and deep tire marks are tougher; we treat them and set honest expectations, since a few stains have soaked in too far to fully lift.
Will you leave stripes on my concrete?
No. We use a surface cleaner that cleans in even, overlapping passes for a uniform finish — none of the zebra striping you get from cleaning with a bare pressure-washer tip.
Can you clean pavers without blowing out the sand?
Yes — pavers are cleaned at controlled pressure to protect the joints. If a lot of joint sand is already gone, we'll flag it and can talk about re-sanding so the surface stays stable.
