Hi Ashley, been trawling through all your brilliant videos in preparation of setting up my own cleaning business....currently install fascia, soffits and cladding at mo but looking to get into something a little less labour intensive but will keep me out doors in the fresh air and bring some job satisfaction. Just wanna say how much I've appreciated your posts and tips, I did window cleaning for 8yrs way back in the says of scrim n squeegee, you have shown how much more varied the work can be. I'm in ya mum n dad's hall (although I know they are somewhere far more glamorous than Sittingbourne) Cheers bud 👍🏽👍🏽

Go easy on the pressure over the tarmac so you don’t damage it. It will clean up more easily if you pre treat it with a biocide first.😃👍🏼

The new fence was the final nail in the drives coffin. Can't afford to replace it & after watching your vids I feel confident that it can be made to look a little more fresh. Many thanks bud.

Nice job!!. I have had lots of junk in my garage for years and lots of dust and debris has settled in their including spilt concrete, sand another building dust. I had my drivewat done in tarmac 3 months ago and over the weekend was walking in and out my garage to dump paint cans and trash to the skip. This has left creyish stains all where my feet have been. Fistly, can a pressure washer remove these stains or can a detergent be used and a good stiff brush? And partly why I am here is that if this scrubbing doesn't remove it, the resiblock can bring the drive back to an even colour again? There are no 'lumps' of what I think is cement based dust, just footprints.
