Did you know?

For the best results, the surface should be sealed after dirt and dead moss have been brushed off. There are a variety of paints or transparent sealers commercially available for this type of application. An effective sealer may consist of a mixture of 33% sodium silicate in water with the addition of 1% ammonium chloride as coagulator. This sealer allows growth to be washed off easily, but will not prevent its formation. Other dealers such as 0,21kg by weight of magnesium fluosilicate or zine fluosilicate in 4L of water are also helpful.

3. Moss
Exterior concrete surfaces that are not exposed to sunlight and remain I a constant damp condition may exhibit signs of plant growth such as moss. These growths have been successfully removed by application of ammonium sulfamate. Should an unsightly powdery deposit be left on the surface, it can be removed by washing with water.

Did you know?

Removing stains from concrete:

1. Micro-organisms
Organisms such as algae and lichens can be destroyed by the application of a sodium hypochlorite solution (5%), a household bleach solution, 2% formalin (formaldehyde with a small amount of methanol in an aqueous medium), or by a 3% to 5% aqueous solution of copper nitrate or sulfate. Biocides such as isothiazolinone chloride can be used to destroy bacteria.

Tip 3: Choose your weapon

If you resort to w**dkiller, avoid general products which will indiscriminately kill anything on contact. It's better to use a product that has been developed for parts as it is likely to be less indiscriminate.

Tip 2: Removing Moss and W**d
However if moss and w**d have got a hold already, or you move into a property where basic maintenance and cleaning has been neglected, what's the best way to get rid of them?

The jet washer can be used on moss but it may pull out more than the roots, meaning, you'll have to reinstate sand in gaps. Mechanical scraping and levering with a hoe, being careful not to scratch the block Faces, is the most permanent way of removing moss and mist w**ds.
Some moss killers will kill the moss but you will still have to get rid of the dead stuff left behind, so you're back to scraping again. So you might as well not bother with the moss killer bit, particularly as some of them will stain the blocks orange as a result of the iron sulphate content..

Tip 1: Keeping sweeping away

Regular sweeping is the best way to stop these w**ds getting a hold in the first place, but if you begin to get algae bloom over the drive then a jet washer can be used. Take care with these though, and it's not for nothing that many manufacturers of concrete Paving products are barring jet wash use in their guarantee documents...
Hold the jet wash wand at a shallow angle and try not to direct the jet into crevices, particularly if they are filled with loose sand as it will be washed away.
Try the jet washer on an inconspicuous corner of the drive if you are concerned that it might start to break up the top surface of your Paving or blocks.
