Pressure washing for terraces and patios

The terrace is the surface we are asked for most: ceramic tiles, outdoor stoneware, natural stone or terrazzo that has lost its colour under a layer of dust, sea salt and green film. We clean terraces of homes, penthouses, villas and holiday-rental apartments across the Costa Blanca and in Valencia.

Light tiled outdoor terrace with furniture, an example of the surfaces we pressure wash (demonstration image)

What we clean

  • Terraces and patios in ceramic tile, porcelain and rustic stoneware
  • Natural stone (limestone, sandstone, slate) and outdoor terrazzo
  • Sun decks and walkable roof terraces reached by stairs or lift
  • Mortar joints with green film, mould or embedded limescale
  • Skirting and low walls belonging to the terrace itself

What we do not do

  • Roofs, pitched roofing or any work at height needing a harness or scaffolding
  • Wooden or composite decking: pressure damages the fibres; we tell you beforehand
  • Waterproofing, sealing or joint repair: we only clean
  • Moving heavy furniture or large planters: we prepare that together

How the price applies

Up to 20 m² — €129
Fixed price, whatever the dirt level. One surface per service. Travel within our service area included.
€200 / hour
Per team · two-hour minimum (€400). Final price confirmed from your photos.

Launch offer (up to 20 m²)

If the terrace is 20 m² or less, the launch offer applies: a fixed €129, whatever the dirt level, one surface per service, travel included within our area. The two-hour minimum does not apply to the offer.

Standard rate (over 20 m²)

Above 20 m² the standard rate applies: €200 per team hour with a two-hour minimum (€400). The calculator estimates hours from the area, surface type and dirt level; a manager confirms them after seeing your photos and nothing is charged before that.

What affects the hours

  • Dirt level: a terrace with years of green film needs slower passes and sometimes a pre-treatment
  • Material: porous stone absorbs more and cleans more slowly than stoneware
  • Access: carrying equipment up stairs or through a narrow gate adds time
  • Water supply: without an outdoor tap we bring a tank, which adds set-up time
  • Furniture and planters: the clearer the terrace, the fewer hours

What to expect from the result

A tiled or stoneware terrace almost always recovers its original colour; on very porous natural stone, shadows may remain where green film has penetrated, and old rust or paint stains do not come out with pressure alone. We send you before and after photos. We do not promise a specific result without having seen the surface — that is why the price is confirmed from your photos.

How to prepare the surface

  • Remove light furniture, outdoor rugs, small planters and loose objects
  • Close windows and shutters facing the terrace; water splashes
  • Tell us whether there is an outdoor tap and where the terrace drain is
  • Warn us about wooden decking, loose joints or broken tiles: we adjust the pressure
  • Keep the access (entrance, lift or stairs) free at the agreed time

Frequently asked questions about this service

Does pressure washing damage tiles?

Not with the right pressure and nozzle. We adjust power to the material: less pressure on soft stone and old joints. If we spot loose or broken tiles, we tell you before going over them.

Does green film come out of the joints?

In the vast majority of cases yes; surface algae and mould come away with pressurised water. On badly worn joints, cleaning can make the joint more visible, but it does not repair it.

My terrace is 18 m² but very dirty — is it still €129?

Yes. The launch offer covers up to 20 m² at any dirt level. Dirt only changes the hours on surfaces above 20 m².

What if I have two small terraces?

The offer covers one surface per service. Two terraces add up in square metres: if the total exceeds 20 m², the hourly rate applies. Say so in the calculator and we confirm from the photos.

How long does a 30 m² terrace take?

As a reference, at medium dirt the calculator estimates about 2 team hours (the minimum). With heavy green film or hard access it can be more; we confirm from your photos before booking.

Can I use the terrace the same day?

Yes, as soon as the paving dries, usually within a few hours depending on sun and wind.

Do you work on holiday-rental terraces?

Yes, often between bookings or before the season. We can coordinate access with the property manager and send them the result photos.
