Driveway and Concrete Cleaning in Perth
BG Solutions cleans driveways, paths, patios, pool surrounds and other concrete surfaces across Perth. We remove oil stains, tyre marks, bore water rust, mould and built-up grime using commercial pressure equipment and rotary surface cleaners for an even, stripe-free finish. Stubborn stains are pre-treated, and every job ends with a full rinse.
Your driveway is the first thing people see when they arrive. When it’s grey, blotchy and oil-stained, it drags down the whole look of the house. A professional clean can take years off it in a few hours.

Driveway & Concrete Cleaning
Planning
We assess the surface, identify problem areas and determine the most suitable cleaning approach.
Execution
Using professional pressure washing equipment and suitable techniques, we remove dirt, grime, stains and build-up.
Finishing Touches
We complete a thorough final check to make sure the area is properly cleaned and the results meet our standards.
Surfaces We Clean
Plain concrete driveways:- The most common surface in Perth. Comes up bright with a proper clean.
Exposed aggregate:- Pebbles set in concrete need careful cleaning to lift dirt from between the stones without loosening them.
Coloured and stencilled concrete:- Cleaned gently to protect colour and patterns. A good time to reseal afterwards.
Brick and concrete pavers:- Joints cleaned of dirt and weeds. We can advise on re-sanding afterwards. For brick walls and fences, see our brick and paver cleaning page.
Limestone paving:- Soft and porous, so we use lower pressure and the right technique.
Paths, patios and pool surrounds:- Slippery, stained areas made clean and safe.
Garage floors and carports:- Oil and grime removed. If you want a long-term fix, ask us about garage floor coatings.
How We Clean Driveways
Pre-treatment:- Oil, rust and mould stains are treated with the right product before pressure cleaning. Pressure alone won’t shift them.
Surface cleaning:- We use a rotary surface cleaner, a spinning bar with jets under a round hood. It holds the jets at a fixed distance from the ground, so the whole driveway gets the same treatment. This is how we avoid the stripes and swirl marks you see after a DIY job with a hand wand.
Edges and detail:- Edges, steps, corners and areas the surface cleaner can’t reach are done by hand.
Rinse:- Dirt and cleaning solution are rinsed off the driveway and away from your gardens, walls and doors.
Post-treatment:- Where mould was present, we can apply a treatment to slow it coming back.
Oil Stains: What to Expect
Oil stains are the most common question we get. Here’s the honest answer. Fresh stains, up to a few months old, often come out completely. Old stains that have soaked into the concrete for years usually lighten a lot, but may leave a faint shadow. Very porous concrete holds oil deeper than dense concrete.
We’ll look at your stains and give you a straight answer before we start, so you know what to expect.
Rust Stains
Bore water rust is a very Perth problem. Rust doesn’t respond to pressure alone, because it’s a mineral stain bonded to the surface. We use a rust treatment that breaks it down, then rinse it off. Most rust stains fade dramatically. Severe, long-term staining may need more than one treatment.
The best long-term fix is to adjust or filter your reticulation so it doesn’t keep spraying the same areas.
Should You Seal After Cleaning?
A clean driveway is the best time to seal. A good sealer helps protect concrete from oil, stains and mould, makes future cleaning easier, and can bring out the colour in coloured concrete and exposed aggregate. Ask us about sealing when you book, and we’ll advise whether it suits your surface.
How Often to Clean Your Driveway
Most Perth driveways look their best with a clean every 12 to 18 months. Driveways under trees, near the coast, or with several cars parked daily may need it every year. Regular cleaning stops stains setting deep, which makes each clean faster and more effective.
Why Not Use a Hire Machine?
Domestic and hire pressure washers have much lower water flow than commercial units, so the job takes far longer. Without a surface cleaner, it’s very hard to avoid stripes. Pre-treatments for oil and rust are often skipped. And it’s easy to etch soft surfaces like limestone, or blast sand out of paving joints. Hiring a professional high pressure cleaner in Perth is faster, more even and safer for your surfaces.
Why Choose BG Solutions
We use commercial-grade equipment, proper surface cleaners and the right pre-treatments. We’re fully insured, we turn up on time, and we’re honest about what can and can’t be removed. We can also clean your walls, roof, house exterior or garage floor on the same visit.
