Driveway, paver and patio cleaning cost in Perth

By the WTD team · Updated November 2026

A standard concrete driveway clean in Perth is $160–$420 in our Perth table, typically $260. Paved areas, pool surrounds and patios are priced as their own jobs, so your total depends on which surfaces go on the quote and how much mould, grime or staining is on them.

Driveway, paver and patio cleaning prices in Perth

Rows from our Perth pressure washing table. Oil or rust stain removal, re-sanding paver joints and sealing aren't priced there, so get them quoted.

Three worked totals for a Perth clean

Most Perth quotes cover more than one surface. These three combine the rows above at their typical figures.

Each total adds the typical figures of the rows named in our Perth pressure washing table; a quote moves within each row's range with the area and the condition.

What moves the price

Four things decide where a Perth job lands in its row: the surface, the area, what is growing on it or staining it, and how easy the site is to work.

• Surface. Plain concrete is the quickest clean. Exposed aggregate, brick and limestone pavers and liquid limestone each need their own pressure and more care.
• Area. The standard driveway row covers a single to double car driveway; a long or wide drive, or the path and crossover added in, moves it up the range.
• Mould and staining. Black mould, lichen and algae need a treatment before the wash. Oil, tyre marks and rust stains are spot-treated and quoted on top.
• Water and access. No outside tap, no side access or a steep drive adds time.

Small jobs are sometimes charged by the hour rather than by the surface, at $42–$105 per hour in our Perth table (typically $68). That suits a short path or a single patio; a full driveway is usually priced as a job on its size, so ask which way the operator is pricing before you compare.

Pavers and patios need a gentler clean

Pavers are the slower clean. They are washed at lower pressure so the sand in the joints and the paver face are not blasted out, which is why paving and pool surrounds sit at $295 typical in our Perth table against $260 for a concrete driveway. Limestone pavers, exposed aggregate and liquid limestone each take their own pressure setting, so tell the operator which you have.

Ask whether re-sanding the joints is included after a paver clean, and whether the operator recommends a sealer. Both are separate services, so they should appear as their own lines on the quote.

Getting a driveway cleaning quote you can compare

Give every operator the same picture: which surfaces you want cleaned, a rough size for each in square metres, photos of any oil, rust or mould, and whether you want sealing or re-sanding. Ask for each surface as its own line, so the quotes line up against the rows above.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to pressure clean a driveway in Perth?

A standard concrete driveway, single to double car, is $160–$420 in our Perth table, typically $260. A front path ($105–$230) or a paved patio ($160–$470) is priced as its own row, so each surface you add goes on top.

Does paver cleaning cost more than a concrete driveway?

Usually, yes. Paving and pool surrounds are $160–$400 in our Perth table, typically $295, against $260 typical for a standard concrete driveway, because pavers are washed at lower pressure to keep the joint sand in place. Re-sanding and sealing afterwards are quoted separately.

How much is patio cleaning in Perth?

Deck and patio cleaning is $160–$470 in our Perth table, typically $295. A small patio done on its own may be charged by the hour instead, at $42–$105 per hour.

Is a mould-inhibitor treatment worth adding?

On shaded paving, a south-facing patio or pool surrounds that go black between cleans, an inhibitor applied after the wash is worth asking about. It is an add-on at $52–$160 in our Perth table, typically $74. A sunny, open driveway rarely needs it.
