Patio cleaners don’t require fierce scrubbing or excessive elbow grease. In fact, they often require next to no work from you at all. The best patio cleaner will simply require that you mix the solution and spread/spray it over the patio. Some cleaners will need to be applied with a brush, and in some cases you will have to rinse the area with the garden hose. You do need a little patience with this one. While the effect varies, you might find that, for the first day or two, nothing much seems to have changed. However, as time goes on, all that slippery algae and stubborn mould will disappear, and the longer you leave it, the better it gets. And while it seems expensive for what it is, this one bottle of concentrate makes 30 litres of spray, so you won’t need any more for a while unless you’ve got vast, palatial gardens. It’s the most effective of the spray-and-go cleaners.

To use this product simply dilute it at 1-part Algon to 3-parts water then apply with a garden sprayer, soft broom or watering can. With no need to rinse, application time can be kept short and sweet. Routine brushing will keep patio surfaces free from leaves and debris, but removing stubborn stains on dirty patios will require the help of a patio cleaner. You can use either a pressure washer or patio cleaning product; however, be mindful that pressure washers can easily damage patio grout. Another option is to use a stiff broom and washing up liquid as this acts as a degreaser, removing pollution from the surface. Weeds, of course, are perhaps the most common natural nasties in any garden or on any driveway. But does patio magic kill weeds? Yes, to an extent.It took about two weeks before I saw a noticeable improvement and about 45 days until the difference was striking. If there are trees in close proximity that may be damaging your coating or sealant products with sap then you’ll want to wait at least 72 hours before applying more coats.

All is not lost. And don’t think you will be spending a day scrubbing, down on your hands and knees, as there’s a wide range of patio cleaners out there to make the job easy. These detergents and specialist fluids are designed to cut through the grime to make your patio look as good as new. Patio Magic is entirely biodegradable. That means it’s free from coarse chemicals, bleach and acid – great news if you have pets or kids around and want to keep them safe. You’ll need to dilute before use, but otherwise, everything in the bottle is good to go. As experienced paving and patio experts, we have cleaned and sealed 1000’s of garden surfaces and driveways. Removing all weeds, moss, algae, and the occasional oil stain is essential before sealing.Next scrub with soap and water — it’s important not to let anything dry before moving on because once dried, stains are much more difficult (and sometimes impossible) to remove. Rinse thoroughly in cold water.

It is particularly ruthless on moss and algae and should spruce any drive or patio suffering from these.It reacts with other chemicals, where it can give off fumes. It can’t be mixed with weedkiller for example. Wear rubber gloves to avoid getting the product on your hands (doing this will also help you clean more effectively). Patio Magic is a product that you apply to your outdoor furniture and it will protect against mold, mildew, frost damage, dust mites, allergens from leaves or pollen. Algon does also make a ready-to-use version of this product which has a sprayer. It’s not as cost effective but it is useful if you just have a small area to spray and don’t want to invest in a garden sprayer.

Rain, snow, sun, and wind can all take a toll on your lawn mower, causing rust, damage, and reduced lifespan. However, with the right tips and tools, you can store your lawn…
