I received an enquiry regarding a set of Brick Steps at a property in Ascot that had fallen victim to the elements and had become ingrained in years of ingrained dirt, algae, and lichen.

This Indian Sandstone patio at a property in Gainsborough was covered with a film of green algae ruining its appearance. I must admit I come across patio’s all the time with a build-up of lichen and grime but rarely anything as lime green as this. Indian Sandstone is full of character and looks great when […]
This is a great example of a Block Paved Patio at a house in Weybridge that I was asked to renovate. Garden patios are exposed to a multitude of elements in this country, wind, rain, snow etc. They are often surrounded by vegetation. The rough nature of block paving and stone attracts dirt so it […]
This Indian Sandstone patio renovation was completed in Chiswick during the summer. I thought I would share it with as there was ten years of lichen and grime built-up on the stone that needed removing. Also, patio cleaning is not something that people generally associate with Tile Doctor but the fact is our stone cleaning […]

This Indian Sandstone Patio in Bolton-Le-Sands near Lancaster had not been cleaned successfully for several years. Although the owner had power washed it on occasion, that won’t rid you of Black Spot, Mould, Lichen etc and this will build-up over the years. It does clean the stone up to a certain standard but at some […]

These photos of a Slate Patio were taken in 2019 at a property in Wantage.

Although structurally sound the stone looked bleached by the weather and the owner […]
