Patio Cleaning Rathmines
Clear Moss & Green Growth From Paving
Green growth can change the look and feel of a patio long before the paving itself needs replacing. Moss around joints, algae across damp sections and general weather grime can make an otherwise sound surface look tired. For patio cleaning in Rathmines, Reflect cleans suitable paving with the material, joints and condition in mind, using pressure or power washing where appropriate and additional treatment only where the surface calls for it.

No obligation. A few clear photos help us judge the paving, joints and level of organic build-up before we price the clean.
Moss and algae can make sound paving look neglected
Rathmines is an established Dublin 6 neighbourhood with older urban streets and mature residential areas around Rathmines Road, Leinster Road, Palmerston and Belgrave. On outdoor paving, green organic growth often shows first in joints, edges and areas that stay damp longer.
Moss building up through the joints
Moss can spread along joints and slab edges where fine soil and organic debris collect. We look at the joint condition before cleaning so worn or loose areas are not treated as if they were newly laid.
Green algae across damp paving
A green film can make the patio look dull and may feel slick when wet. The correct approach depends on the paving material, age and how established the growth has become.
Lichen sitting underneath the green layer
Once loose grime and algae are removed, older lichen or black marks may become more obvious. Their response to further cleaning depends on the surface and how deeply the marks have set in.
We assess the green growth before cleaning it
The surface material, joint condition and level of moss or algae guide the clean rather than using the same pressure everywhere.

Call or WhatsApp from Rathmines with wide photos of the patio plus close-ups of moss, algae, dirty joints or stubborn marks. Include connected steps or paths if you want them priced too.
We assess paving, joints and organic build-up
The quote considers area size, access, paving type, joint condition and how established the green growth is. Any optional re-sanding or additional treatment stays separate and clear.
We clean the agreed surface
Suitable patio pressure washing or power washing is used where appropriate, with extra treatment considered only where needed. The area is rinsed and checked against realistic expectations for older staining.

Organic growth needs more thought than “turn up the pressure”
Moss, algae and lichen can all look green or dark on paving, but they do not always respond in the same way. We assess the surface, joints and level of growth before deciding how the patio should be cleaned.
We check where the growth is coming from
Joints, edges and damp sections often hold more organic material than open paving. Looking at the pattern helps us decide where normal washing is enough and where extra attention may be useful.
Slippery-looking green film is assessed by surface
Concrete, sandstone, natural stone and porcelain can all carry algae differently. We do not assume the same pressure or treatment is suitable for every green patio.
Re-sanding stays separate if joints need it
If cleaning removes loose joint material from suitable block paving or similar surfaces, re-sanding can be discussed separately. It is not automatically included with every patio clean.

Questions about moss and algae on patio paving
Quick answers about green growth, slippery-looking paving, treatment, pricing and patio-cleaning coverage around Rathmines.
Can you remove moss from patio slabs and joints? +
Yes, loose moss and organic build-up can be removed from suitable patio surfaces and joints. We check the joint condition first, especially where older or loose material may be affected by cleaning.
Can patio cleaning remove green algae from paving? +
Patio cleaning can remove a lot of green algae and surface film. The method depends on the paving material, age, porosity and how established the growth is, so the same pressure is not used blindly on every surface.
Will moss and algae come back after cleaning? +
Organic growth can return over time, especially where paving stays damp or collects soil and debris. Cleaning resets the surface, but future growth depends on shade, drainage, surrounding conditions and ongoing maintenance.
