Stains, Oxidation, Oil, Rust
Concrete you thought was ruined, revived
Deep cleaning and restoration for concrete that a normal wash cannot fix. We treat oil, rust, and oxidation with targeted chemistry, then finish with an even, edge to edge clean. Priced with pressure washing at 50 to 75 cents per square foot plus stain treatment.
Restoration, Not Just Rinsing
The stains other companies leave behind
Oil does not rinse out of concrete. Neither does rust, fertilizer staining, or years of oxidation. Each one needs its own chemistry, its own dwell time, and a crew that knows the difference. That is the restoration part of what we do, and it is why our afters look the way they do.
- Oil and grease extraction from pores, not smearing
- Rust, irrigation, and fertilizer stain treatment
- Efflorescence and oxidation removal
- Gum, paint, and tire mark removal
- Optional penetrating sealer to keep it bright
- Pet safe and kid safe product options

How we do it
Diagnose
Every stain gets identified. Oil, rust, organic, mineral. The chemistry only works if the diagnosis is right.
Treat
Targeted treatments dwell on each problem area and pull the stain up out of the concrete's pores.
Deep Clean
Commercial surface cleaners even out the whole slab so treated spots blend into one uniform finish.
Seal (Optional)
A penetrating sealer locks out future stains and keeps the surface brighter, longer.
$250 service minimum. Stain treatment and sealing are quoted per job based on condition. Start with the instant estimate calculator, then book your free estimate for an exact quote.
Even our heavy duty treatments are applied, contained, and neutralized with pet safe and kid safe options available. Aggressive chemistry, handled professionally.
Ten years of stains. Gone in an afternoon.
Beyond Clean
We paint concrete too
Cleaning brings concrete back. Paint takes it somewhere new. Slide to see a restored slab finished in a deep slate porch coat.
Bare
Painted
Driveways, patios, pool decks, and walkways can all take a coating once they are properly cleaned and prepped. We use durable porch and patio systems in colors that fit your home, applied over a surface we have restored ourselves, so the coating bonds and lasts.
Concrete painting is scoped alongside your cleaning, with prep, color, and square footage priced as one written number before any work begins.

Questions
Concrete cleaning FAQ
How much does concrete cleaning cost in Orange County?
Concrete cleaning in Orange County runs 50 to 75 cents per square foot with a $250 service minimum. A typical two car driveway of 500 to 800 square feet runs $250 to $600, done in 2 to 4 hours, and the same rate covers patios, walkways, and pool decks. Targeted stain chemistry for oil, rust, and oxidation is quoted on top where the concrete needs it. Get a real range now with our instant estimate calculator, then an exact written quote at your free on site estimate.
Are the cleaning products safe for pets, kids, and landscaping?
Yes, we use pet and kid safe product options on every concrete job. Landscaping gets pre soaked and protected before we start, treated areas are rinsed when we finish, and surfaces are typically dry within 1 to 2 hours. Our crews are insured and every job carries a workmanship warranty in writing.
How often should concrete be cleaned in Orange County?
Most Orange County concrete looks its best cleaned every 12 months. Homes within about 2 miles of the coast benefit from every 6 to 9 months because salt air and the marine layer feed algae and grime, and oceanfront homes do best on twice a year. If we seal your concrete, plan on a reseal every 2 to 3 years.
Can old oil stains really come out of concrete?
Yes, most oil stains come out of concrete completely. Targeted degreasers and hot water extraction pull the oil up out of the pores instead of spreading it, and very old stains may leave only a faint shadow. We look at the stain in person at your free on site estimate, about 20 minutes, and tell you exactly what to expect before any work begins.
Should I seal my concrete after cleaning and how long does sealer last?
Yes, sealing is worth it for driveways and patios that see heavy use, and a penetrating sealer lasts 2 to 3 years before it needs a fresh coat. Sealer slows future staining and makes every cleaning after this one easier. You can walk on freshly sealed concrete immediately, just keep vehicles off for 24 hours. We quote sealing as an add on at your free estimate.
What is the difference between concrete cleaning and pressure washing?
Pressure washing is the general wash, run at 1,500 to 3,500 PSI on concrete, while concrete cleaning and restoration adds targeted chemistry for oil, rust, and oxidation on top of it. Both start at the same rate of 50 to 75 cents per square foot with a $250 service minimum. Restoration is the deeper treatment for concrete that looks beyond saving. Our instant estimate calculator gives you a real range for either one.
Can you remove rust and irrigation stains from concrete?
Yes, rust and mineral stains from irrigation, fertilizer, and metal furniture come out with dedicated chemistry, not more pressure. We treat each stain type with the right product and blend the area into a uniform finish. Stain treatment is quoted on top of the 50 to 75 cents per square foot base rate at your free on site estimate.
How soon can we walk or drive on the concrete after cleaning?
You can walk on cleaned concrete immediately, the moment we finish. Most driveways take 2 to 4 hours start to finish. If we apply a penetrating sealer, keep vehicles off for 24 hours before parking on it.
Will pressure washing damage or discolor my concrete?
No, professional cleaning will not damage or discolor your concrete. Damage comes from blasting at the wrong pressure, which we never do. Our crews run calibrated equipment in the correct 1,500 to 3,500 PSI range for concrete and pair it with the right chemistry, so the surface brightens evenly, corner to corner.
Do you paint concrete?
Yes, we paint concrete. After cleaning and prep we finish driveways, patios, pool decks, and walkways with a durable porch and patio coating in a color that fits your home. Painting is scoped and quoted at your free on site estimate, about 20 minutes, with one exact written number before any work begins.
What products and brands do you use on concrete?
We use targeted degreasers from Oil Eater, Concrete Crew, and Walttools, plus penetrating silane siloxane sealers from W.R. Meadows and SealGreen. The right chemistry does the work, not just pressure, from 50 to 75 cents per square foot with a $250 minimum. Sealing is quoted as an add on and lasts 2 to 3 years.
