Question 1

Will pressure cleaning damage my surfaces?

Accepted Answer

No, when performed by experienced operators, pressure cleaning is safe for concrete, pavers, brick, stone, and rendered surfaces. We select the correct pressure setting, nozzle type, and technique for every surface to deliver a thorough clean without causing damage. Different materials require different approaches — for example, exposed aggregate needs lower pressure than standard concrete, and painted surfaces require careful handling. Our team assesses every surface before starting and adjusts the equipment accordingly. DSK Cleaning is fully insured with $20M public liability for your protection.

Question 2

Can you remove oil stains?

Accepted Answer

Yes, oil stain removal from driveways, garage floors, car parks, and workshop areas is a common part of our high-pressure washing service across Sydney and the Central Coast. We apply a professional-grade degreasing pre-treatment to break down the oil at a molecular level before high-pressure cleaning lifts it from the surface. For older or deeply penetrated stains that have soaked into porous concrete, we may use multiple treatment passes to achieve the best possible result. The combination of targeted chemical pre-treatment and calibrated pressure cleaning is far more effective than pressure washing alone and delivers a noticeably cleaner, more uniform finish.

Question 3

Is it safe for timber decking?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we clean timber decking regularly using lower pressure settings specifically calibrated for wood. High pressure can splinter and damage timber fibres, so we use a controlled fan spray at reduced PSI to remove dirt, mould, and algae without causing harm. After cleaning, the deck can be left to dry and is ready for oiling or staining if desired. We clean all types of timber decking including hardwood, treated pine, and composite boards across properties in Sydney, the Central Coast, and Newcastle.

Question 4

How long does it take to dry?

Accepted Answer

Concrete surfaces such as driveways and pathways typically dry within 2-4 hours after pressure cleaning, depending on temperature, airflow, and direct sunlight exposure. Timber decking and porous surfaces like sandstone or exposed aggregate may take slightly longer to fully dry, especially in shaded areas or during cooler months. We recommend keeping foot and vehicle traffic off freshly cleaned surfaces until they are completely dry to avoid tracking dirt back onto the clean area. For time-sensitive jobs like pre-sale property presentation or strata common area cleaning, we can schedule the work to allow adequate drying time before inspections, photography, or resident access.

Question 5

Can you clean the full property?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we can pressure wash your entire property exterior in a single visit — driveways, footpaths, patios, pool surrounds, retaining walls, fences, building facades, bin areas, and more. Bundling multiple areas into one visit is more cost-effective than booking separate jobs and ensures a consistent, uniform finish across the entire property. Full-property pressure cleaning is particularly popular for pre-sale presentation, end of lease requirements, and strata common area maintenance across Sydney and the Central Coast. We provide a detailed, fixed-price quote covering all areas you want cleaned, so you know the total cost upfront before any work begins.
