Interlock · Cleaning

A professional clean, without the pressure-washer damage.

Moss, algae and grime washed out with commercial OxyShock MAX chemistry, joint weeds killed with saturated steam — and your polymeric sand left where it belongs. A one-off service for surfaces whose joints are still sound.

What's In The Visit

Four things, done properly.

OxyShock MAX professional wash

A commercial-grade oxygen-activated wash that lifts moss, algae and organic staining out of the surface and the joint lines — chemistry chosen for organics, not a pressure washer blasting sand out of your joints.

Saturated steam where weeds have moved in

Joint weeds are killed with commercial saturated steam — over 100°C at the nozzle, roots included — then removed. No herbicides on your property.

Controlled rinse and tidy finish

A controlled rotary rinse that respects your joints, followed by a proper tidy-up: the surface, the edges, and everything we worked around.

A condition report you can act on

While we're on the surface we see the joints up close. You get a plain-language read on their condition — and if they're failing, we'll tell you cleaning alone won't hold them.

One thing the visit never includes: same-day sealing. Sealer belongs over cured, verified joints — if yours qualify, Interlock CAT5 Seal & Renew is booked as its own visit. And if the joints themselves are failing, the fix is Interlock Restoration — Natural Finish, not a wash.

Real Jobs

What a proper clean looks like.

Good To Know

Common questions.

Is cleaning enough, or do I need restoration?

It depends entirely on the joints. If the polymeric sand is intact and the surface is just dirty or mossy, a professional clean brings it back. If joints are eroded, loose or growing weeds from below, cleaning improves the look but not the structure — that's Interlock Restoration — Natural Finish territory, and we'll say so plainly after seeing it.

Will it remove stains?

Organic staining — moss, algae, leaf tannins, general grime — is what the OxyShock wash is built for. Deep-set rust or oil marks are a different chemistry; we assess those on site and quote any specialty treatment separately, before work begins.

Can you seal it while you're there?

No — and that's deliberate. Sealer belongs over cured, verified-sound polymeric sand, and that verification happens at an assessment, not mid-wash. If your joints qualify, Interlock CAT5 Seal & Renew is booked as its own visit. We never seal same-day.

How is this different from the Annual Maintenance & Warranty visit?

Same professional wash, different context. The Annual Maintenance & Warranty program is a yearly visit that keeps restoration warranties in force — cleaning, inspection and a written condition report. Standalone cleaning is the one-off version: right for a surface we haven't restored, a newer installation, or getting a property ready for sale.

What does it cost?

Most cleans start at $285 +HST. The exact number depends on surface area, condition and access — confirmed at the free assessment before any work begins.
