Driveway and concrete cleaning in Chattanooga, TN
Oil, tire marks, algae and years of gray buildup.
What actually happens
Concrete goes gray slowly enough that you stop seeing it. The edges where it meets grass go green, the center where the car sits goes dark, and the whole slab dulls a shade at a time until a clean strip next to it looks like a different material.
It is worse where water sits. The apron at the bottom of the slope, the strip along the garage door, anywhere a downspout empties. Those areas go green first and stay green, because concrete is porous and holds moisture long after the rest of the slab has dried.
How we do it
A surface cleaner rather than a wand. A spinning bar under a hood, even pressure across the whole width, no zebra striping. Stubborn oil gets pre-treated and worked before the pass.

Questions
Will it leave stripes?
No. A surface cleaner puts even pressure across the full width, which is what prevents the zebra striping you get from a wand.
Can you get oil stains out?
Usually. Oil gets pre-treated and worked before the pass. Old, deep stains may lighten rather than disappear.
How long does a driveway take?
Most take under two hours.
How soon will it look dirty again?
Bare concrete is porous, so it starts taking dirt back immediately. Sealing after the clean is what changes that.
