Pressure washing & power washing in Chilliwack for driveways, walkways and hard surfaces
Controlled pressure washing — often called power washing — for durable exterior surfaces: concrete, exposed aggregate, pavers, brick, patios and walkways. Used exactly where pressure belongs, and nowhere else.
Pressure washing, also called power washing, uses controlled water pressure to clean durable hard surfaces such as concrete, exposed aggregate, pavers, brick, patios and walkways. Lucid Pressure Washing uses it only on surfaces that can take it; siding and roofs are soft washed instead.

Just need your driveway cleaned?
Our dedicated driveway cleaning page covers concrete and exposed aggregate driveways, the walkways and entry pads around them, and what cleaning can realistically do for older stains.
Understanding pressure washing
Why concrete and pavers handle pressure fine
Unlike siding or roofing, concrete, brick and pavers are dense, rigid materials built to take real force — that’s the whole reason controlled pressure washing is the right tool here rather than a soft wash. The technique still matters: even nozzle distance and consistent passes prevent the visible "striping" that comes from rushing the job.
What builds up on hard surfaces
Driveways and walkways collect tire residue, organic staining from nearby trees, algae film, and general grime that builds up gradually enough most homeowners don’t notice until it’s pointed out. Paver joints are especially prone to weed and moss growth once dirt accumulates between the stones. For driveways specifically, see our driveway cleaning service.
Where we draw the line
Pressure washing is for hard, durable surfaces only — never roofs, siding, or delicate finishes. If a property needs both, we treat each surface with the method actually built for it rather than using one setting for everything — siding and exterior walls get soft washed instead.
For businesses and larger properties
The same principle scales up for storefronts, walkways and parking areas — see our commercial exterior cleaning page for how we approach pressure washing on business and multi-unit properties.

Signs your property may need pressure washing
- A driveway that’s gone from grey to a dingy brown or black tone
- Green or black algae film that makes surfaces slippery when wet
- Weeds or moss taking hold in paver joints
- Oil stains or tire marks that have never come up
Maintenance: An annual pressure wash keeps most driveways and walkways looking sharp. Shaded or tree-lined properties often need it more often to stay ahead of algae and organic staining.

Common questions about pressure washing
Is pressure washing safe for my driveway?
Yes — concrete, aggregate, brick and paver surfaces are well suited to controlled pressure washing, which is the correct technique for these durable materials.
Do you pressure wash siding or roofs?
No. Siding and roofs are cleaned with soft washing instead, since high pressure can damage those more delicate surfaces.
How often should concrete be pressure washed?
Most Fraser Valley driveways and walkways benefit from a cleaning once a year, though shaded or heavily treed properties may need it more often.
How much does pressure washing cost in Chilliwack?
Every job is quoted individually — the surface type, the square footage, how much algae and staining has built up, and access all affect the price. Text a few photos of the area and your address for an itemized quote; most pressure washing quotes are done from photos.
