Driveway Cleaning and Sealing FAQs
How often should a driveway be cleaned and sealed?
That depends on traffic, shade, weather and the type of sealer used. Some driveways benefit from
cleaning every year or two, with sealing on a longer cycle. When you post your job, ask tradies
what schedule they suggest for your climate and surface type.
Will pressure cleaning damage my driveway?
When used correctly, pressure cleaning can refresh many surfaces without damage. Very high
pressure, poor technique or fragile surfaces may cause issues though. Experienced tradies adjust
equipment and methods to suit your driveway material and condition.
Do I need to move vehicles and items off the driveway?
Yes. Cars, trailers and loose items should be moved to give clear access. This helps tradies work
more safely and reach the full surface. Many will also ask you to keep vehicles off the area for
a set time after sealing to allow proper curing.
Can sealing change the colour of my driveway?
Some clear sealers slightly deepen colour or give a wet look, while tinted sealers can change
appearance more. You can ask to see sample areas or product examples so you know what to expect
before the whole driveway is coated.
