Dallas Concrete Cleaning Services
Your driveway sees more daily traffic than almost any other part of your Dallas home, from summer thunderstorms rolling off White Rock Lake to oil drips after a long commute down Central Expressway, and over time that traffic leaves behind stains most homeowners assume are permanent. We provide concrete cleaning Dallas homeowners rely on, covering driveways, patios, and walkways across neighborhoods like Preston Hollow, Lake Highlands, and Oak Cliff, using hot water equipment strong enough to lift oil, algae, and rust without damaging the surface underneath. If your concrete looks tired, gray, or slick after rain, you are not stuck living with it.

Who We Are
We are a concrete cleaning Dallas crew focused on one thing: getting driveways, patios, and walkways clean and safe again. No upsell pressure, no vague quotes. Just a clear process and honest pricing.
Common Problems We Fix
Not all concrete stains come from the same cause, and treating them the same way rarely works.
Oil and Grease Stains
Oil soaks into porous concrete fast. A garden hose won’t touch it. We use a degreasing pre-treatment that breaks down oil at the surface level before hot water lifts it out.
Rust Stains
Rust usually comes from patio furniture, sprinklers, or fertilizer. In older homes, it can also come from rebar bleeding through cracks near the slab edge. We treat each cause differently.
Algae, Mold, and Mildew
Dallas humidity is perfect for algae growth on shaded concrete. This isn’t just ugly. It makes the surface slick, especially near pool decks and covered patios.
Tannin Stains
Leaves and mulch near oak and pecan trees, common across Dallas yards, leave brown tannin stains that regular cleaners can’t touch.
How do I clean mildew off a concrete driveway?
Mildew needs more than surface scrubbing. It grows into tiny pores in the concrete, so a proper clean uses a mildewcide treatment first, then hot water extraction to remove the roots, not just the surface film.
Our Process
We look at stain type, surface condition, and access before quoting anything.
Stains get treated with the right solution before any pressure is applied.
We flush each run with water and confirm every downspout drains freely.
We rinse landscaping runoff away and check the finished surface before we leave.
Why can’t you pressure wash new concrete?
New concrete needs about 28 days to fully cure. Pressure washing too early can pit or discolor the surface before it has hardened enough to resist the force.
Surfaces We Clean
Standard poured concrete driveways
Stained and stamped concrete
Limestone and Austin stone patios
Concrete Sealing
Cleaning removes what’s already there. Sealing keeps new stains from setting in. Concrete is porous, so an unsealed driveway absorbs oil and rust again within months of a clean. A penetrating sealer closes those pores without changing how the surface looks.
Pricing Transparency
Price depends on three things: stain severity, surface size, and how hard the area is to access.
How much does it cost to clean concrete?
Most concrete cleaning Dallas jobs run $250 to $500. Heavier oil staining or sealing afterward can push that to $400-$1,200 depending on square footage.
| Service | Typical Price Range |
| Standard driveway cleaning | $250 – $500 |
| Oil/rust stain treatment | $300 – $600 |
| Sealing (after cleaning) | $400 – $1,200 |
| Patio or walkway cleaning | $150 – $400 |
Difficult access, like a driveway blocked by landscaping or a gated side yard, can add 20-40% to labor time.
The Real Cost of Waiting
Slips on wet or algae-covered concrete aren’t rare. The CDC links falls to roughly $50 billion a year in medical costs nationwide, and one in five falls causes a serious injury like a broken bone. That risk sits right outside your front door every time it rains.
Waiting also costs more than cleaning does. A $250-500 cleaning now is far cheaper than what neglect turns into later:
| If You Wait, It Can Become | Estimated Cost |
| Surface spalling (flaking, chipping) | $500 – $2,000 |
| Full resurfacing | $1,920 – $6,40 |
| Slab replacement | $8-$18 per sq ft |

Equipment We Use
Would a 1800 PSI pressure washer work on my driveway?
A consumer unit at that PSI can clean light dirt, but it struggles with set-in oil and rust. Our commercial hot water units combine higher flow rate with heat, which does the real work that pressure alone can’t.
A Recent Job
Lake Highlands
Oil & Algae Buildup
The situation: A Lake Highlands driveway had years of oil buildup near the garage entry and green algae across the shaded north side. Previous pressure washing had only lightened the stains.
What we did: We treated the oil and algae separately, using a degreaser for the oil and mildewcide for the algae, followed by hot water extraction.
The outcome: The driveway returned to near-original color in a single visit.
✓ Oil buildup treated
✓ Green algae removed
✓ Near-original color restored

Before You Book: Questions Worth Asking
How can I get my concrete driveway clean without using a pressure washer?
For light dirt, a stiff broom and a degreasing solution can help. For set-in oil, rust, or algae, hot water extraction is the only method that fully removes the stain instead of just fading it.
What does vinegar do to concrete?
Vinegar is acidic and can etch or discolor concrete over time, especially sealed or decorative surfaces. It’s not a safe long-term cleaner for driveways.

Beyond concrete, we handle other exterior cleaning jobs across Dallas homes and properties.
