Driveway Cleaning & Re-sanding Cambridge
So here I am on another driveway clean. Was called up for the lovely Mr & Mr Agar, to bring this old and tired looking driveway back to it's former self. Got some lovely feedback from the customers at the end of the job which I managed to record (audio only) probably going to start doing more of that on future videos if I can.
Hope you enjoy this transformation, cheers, Nick 🙂

Discovered you. Enjoy your videos. You are hardworking with solid integrity. You motivate my husband and I to get a little work done outside each day. I’m 67 and he is 73. Thank you for what you do. You beautify many homes with your skills. Best wishes from Wyoming.
Awesome! Thank you! Greetings from Cambridge UK ❤️
That turned out great! Was pretty bad before you got there. Have a great week! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching Toni, all the best, Nick.
You made that paving look brand new. Nice video .
Many thanks Chrissy ❤️
Beautifully done. Watching you sand it afterward is so relaxing to watch. And no problems with the camera this week. Thanks for sharing, Nick. Fabulous work as always. Hope you have a wonderful week. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hey Coppertop, thanks so much for the great feedback as always 😊. Lol yes no issues with the camera, but give it time, i've no doubt something will happen to it while recording the next few vids 😁. Have a great week too 🤗💕
Thank you for explaining the importance of wearing a mask with the hypo and that it's dangerous to the lungs. I've seen one creator using it with no mask of any kind, and laying down 2 layers, and I was just shocked. It's nice to see professionals like yourself using ppe, and even telling us why it is so important. ❤❤❤ many blessings towards you and your kin
So kind, many thanks 😊
Hello Nick, well done! Don't let the lungs take a hit, keep protection on (coming from a beekeeper, we use organic acids for Varroa). Cheers
Interesting, would love to keep bees myself one day. Thanks mate 👍
Ah, block paving my personal favourite.
excellent!! take care of your health. good to see you have safety gear to do your work. crack on, like you in the UK always say.
Many thanks Jeri 😊. Lol, yes we do say that quite a lot here 😄
Re-sanding is always my favourite part of your videos, Nick. You have the most amazingly precise technique - so therapeutic to watch...lovely job...
Absolutely brilliant job. Nice to hear their reaction too, hope for more of that! Thanks for the upload Nick :)
Hiya Al, thanks bud. Yeah I think it brings a nice end to the video, will definitely try to record more of that in the future, thanks again mate ☺️
You did a great job 👏🏻👍🏻 Beautiful 💪🏻💕
Thank you so much 😀
Ya another one! Getting up to watch on my big screen.
Another great wash, black spots gone and it's a sunny day - HAPPY DAYS Nick.
Watching from New Zealand.
Heeey Barbarella, hope you enjoy watching on your big screen. I've been filming in 4k lately to try and make it look better for people watching on their TV's lately. I hope it's making a difference. Many thanks as always, Nick ❤️
@@PrestigeExternalCleaningIt was perfect, thanks for that!
Hey, Nick! Beautiful job. It was pretty straightforward for you - no daring tree trims or other acrobatics this week! 😄 But your client was so right - it looks like new! I was surprised to see the frame of dark tiles all round the edges. It wasn't really visible in the "Before" shots, but after brightening everything up as you did, that dark frame really pops and adds such a nice touch.
Glad to see you alll the love from your customers! Have a great week, Nick! 💙
Hey Lucinda, yes indeed, quite a nice straight forward job with no dramas 😁. Aw cheers, it never gets old hearing nice things about the work I do. Gonna try and get more reactions from now on, think it's something people want to hear/see .
Have a great week too ❤️
@@PrestigeExternalCleaning
Yes, I think we all enjoy hearing you get the praise you deserve!
I love the look of brick pavers all fresh and clean!
Hi Pat, many thanks ❤️
What a beautiful day and lovely customers 💕 I agree it does look new 👍🏼👍🏼 You never disappoint! Please don’t feel like you have to take off your mask, we can hear you just fine. I hope you are ok ? 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for your concern Randi, but i'm okay ❤️. Thanks for the lovely comment as always 🤗
Amazing job as always 😃
Thanks Locky 🤝
Brilliant job well done ❤❤❤
Thank you Sheila 😊
Stunning results, it looks newly laid 🤩
Thank you Michelle 😊
What a huge difference. Awesome job 👍
Thank you so much 💕
Beautiful job Nick. 👏 another satisfied customer 😊
Cheers dude ☺️
Another great job, Nick! Interesting about the hypo--I thought you needed the mask because of the chemical itself instead of the chemical reacting to what it's cleaning. Learn something new every day. Stay safe!
Awesome, many thanks Cleopatra
Looks beautiful! I notice they have a back patio.....you might need to come back for that now that they know how good you are. Stay safe. 😊
Fingers crossed 🤞
Absolutely beautiful! Just lovely really. That was brilliant! Much love to you and yours from Oklahoma USA. 🇺🇸❤
Hi Shay, a huge thanks for the lovely comment 😊
We use a ploymer sand here which must be the same thing by a different name. I love the complete job that is given to the customers. Great outcome. Looks brand new again.
Awesome, thanks 🙂
Awesome job nick and great to be appreciated by lovely customers
Absolutely, cheers mate 👍
A Great job as usual. The customer's seem very pleased
Many thanks John, they were indeed 👍
Great job! It looks really beautiful! Hope your back feels better soon. Take care.
Thank you so much!
What a great job you have and do. The feeling of satisfaction at the end of a project must be good. To see the results of your efforts as you go , I envy you .
Hi Nick well what a transformation cleanest that's been for years comes up lovely like new well done mate !
Cheers buddy 👍
Nick what a transformation. Lovely job. Greetings from New Zealand.
Hey dude, thanks for tuning in as always 🤜🤛
Another smashing video sir. I am also really enjoying your choice in music. Cheers!
Awesome, thank you!
Stunning transformation, a lovely job...Nice one Nick 😊
Thank you so much Angie, so lovely to hear from you ❤️💕😊
You're a miracle worker!
Great work, brings the paving to life. Thank you. 🇦🇺
Hey Ollie, huge thanks 💕
Great job and as the lady said it looks like it’s just been laid, can’t get a better compliment than that!
Keep that mask on we can still hear you ❤
Thanks so much Patty, really appreciate the kind feedback. Yes, i won't be doing that again, i'm not sure what I was thinking, just felt the urge to talk to the camera, then realised what a silly thing I was doing ❤️
Smashed it again Nick never in doubt 👏👏👏
Cheers mate, luv ya 😀
Nice real nice.Your expertise shows on every job you do Me who can't abide the smell of bleach or even insect spray cringe when you spray the hypo.Though it's necessary.Take care of yourself.Thanks for the videos.🇹🇹
Thanks for the great comment Ellena 😍
All the pressure washing videos I watch you are the only one I see plop down on you bum and tend to little detail areas while sanding! Attention to detail is clear, what a professional job! Love the customer reaction, especially “the boss” 😂 beautiful job!
Lol, thanks for noticing that Kelli, I'm not afraid to get down in the dirt if I need to, although my dodgy back and knees wouldn't agree 😄. Thanks for the awesome comment ❤️
Well done. 😀
Thank you mate 😃
Always a treat to watch!
So kind, thanks so much Alina
Came out beautiful!! Becareful, please don’t take your respirator off around those chemicals. Very dangerous!❤
Lovely!!
Thank you! 😊
That came out gorgeous!
Many thanks 😊
Great looking, beautiful job ❤
Oh wow what a transformation 👏, great vid as always bud, keep up the awesome work, may I ask when you put down the SH do you do that as an extra or just price it in to the job, just asking as I'm just starting out myself and wondering what others do, thanks bud 😎👊
Hi Zed, I used to separate it, but now I just include it in my quote, because 99% of the time there's always black spot to some degree. If on the rare occasion there isn't, then i'll charge less than the original quote, which is always a nice surprise for the customer, and always very much appreciated by them. But like I said, it's very rare that happens 👍
@PrestigeExternalCleaning ah cheers bud really appreciate your input and help 😎👊
@@Southernprojetwash Pleasure 👍
Wow great job, always so impressed with your work. Cheers from the pacific northwest (Canada side).
So kind 💕
Absolutely beautiful truly ❤
May I ask did they not want the front bricks cleaned? That would had been beautiful 😍
Please keep your mask on while the chemicals are active 🙏🏼
Do voice over if you need to yah 🥺🙏🏼
Many thanks Deanna, no I won't be doing that again in a hurry, slap on the wrist for me 🙁😁. The customer didn't say anything about the brick wall, and if i'm honest, I didn't really notice it. All the best, Nick 👍
👍Awesome job and thanks for sharing
Cheers dude ✊
More great results mate, keep smashing it
Much appreciated dude 🤜🤛
Best pressure washer on RUclips.
Aw cheers ☺️😊
Awesome job as ALWAYS Nick 👏 👍 👌 you need to be more careful around those chemicals.
I just a huge area of mine like that but haven 't bothered with sand. I suppose I should but the thought of scrubbing it all in... can't we get a robot to do it these days? Such hard work as I've already scrubbed in the hypo (I don't use surfacant in it which I think is why mine doesn't have the chemical reaction we perhaps see in the video)
You got those poor bricks from looking like they'd been brushed with *_tar_* in some places, to looking brand-new and freshly-laid. You aren't a cleaner; you, sir, are a goddamn _sorcerer~_ 💯👍👍👍
🤣🤣 many thanks as always Alexis 💕
Top job again bro 👍👌keep your mask on when your soft washing lol 🤣🤣🙈👍
🤣👍❤️
Totally transformed for them. Great work!
Thank you! Cheers!
Firstly what a result 😊 it came up so much better than I could have imagined, it looked really bad although I have seen much worse ao should have known really.
Lastly Big Sister voice here (ok I am probably just old enough to be your mum but being kind to myself 🤣🤣).
DON'T YOU EVER PUT YOURSELF AT RISK LIKE THAT AGAIN. YOU ARE FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN THAT 🤬🤬🤬 Lecture over now 😂
Ah bless 🥰. I don't mind being lectured about that sort of thing, especially when I know it's genuine concern from a lovely genuine person like yourself. That was silly of me to have talked right in the middle of a freshly sprayed treatment without my mask on, I know better than that, I was just being lazy and didn't want to walk back to my van 🤦🏻♂️. So feel free to call me out anytime you see me doing something stupid like that again. Big hugs, Nick 💕
Brilliant 🎖
Amazing transformation and absolutely lovely reactions too, great vid
Thank you so much 😁
Wow that was really dirty, but as always you make look brand new.
Aw cheers Marlena 😍
JOB WELL DONE ❤
Perfect result. I’m curious though…why do you think the pavers under the window didn’t clean up like the rest of them?
Many thanks mate. The pavers under the window still had their original top coating on them, so they looked darker, so they appear less clean compared to the worn blocks. The rest of the blocks look much brighter because when blocks are exposed to the wind, rain and sun, it wears that layer off and exposes the lighter colour underneath 👍
Great job Nick. 👍👍
Thanks mate 👍
If that was my driveway, put your hand out. Well done looks as new.
Beautiful work as always❤
Many thanks Fiona ❤️
Very nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful!
It is fun when you can restore something to "like new". That was a lot of damage you got reversed, even the dreaded Black Spot, and it looks good. I could pass the quiz on sand use but the solid material (repointing) sometimes used could use more explanation if you would.
Many thanks Robert, but my apologies, i'm not quite sure what you're asking me?
@@PrestigeExternalCleaning Some places you go and "the pointing" has worn out. Apparently it matters what it is replaced with/repaired with. Also, why is a more solid filler used compared to sand?
Awesome thanks
Welcome 😊
Top job lad !!
Beautifully done! So I know this is an older video, and I’m new to your channel but I’m curious as to if the customer is paying for the sand you have to lay down? The only reason I’m asking is cuz you said sand is lost when you pressure wash, and the sand is what holds the pavers together for stability? So do they have to pay for the sand or is that something you do on your own?
Fantastic job! What actually is black spot? It seems to be the hardest thing to remove?
Hi Mishka, many thanks, black spot is a type of lichen 👍
Wonderful job! ❤ The leftover sand do you just get the trash/leaves out and keep using it? I mean I’d think it would still be good to use.I noticed you filling up a bin past couple of ones. Do you always do that? I thought you just used the customer’s outside tap.
Hi Rebecca, thank you kindly ❤️. Yes I just bag it back up again and use it on the next job. As long as it's still dry it's good to use again even if there's a few sticks and leaves in it.
Yes i've always filled up a bin. I do use the customers tap, but i fill up the bin with it, then draw the water from the bin, which slowly drops down as i work. The tap is always open/on, but it can't keep up with the amount of water i'm using. So I have to keep an eye on the bin to make sure it doesn't run out, as it can damage the pump on the machine if it runs dry 👍. This can be a huge cause for contention with us pressure washing guys, as slow water pressure from the customers tap can really slow us down. 👍
Awesome
❤️
Hey Nick, firstly great videos …because of you I’ve now decided to start up my own exterior cleaning business. I used to have a business in the flooring industry but unfortunately I was diagnosed with stage 2 COPD at 32. So I became medically unable to work for a long while and then Fibromyalgia got a hold of me too. Now at the tender age of 42 haha I’m starting up a new business. However I’m in need of some advice from a professional. How would we go about talking about this without public viewing ?. Regards Dan 😊
Be nice if someone made a circular pressure washer , where you could disconnect the sprayer wand so you could use one device to clean your car.
Another great video and superb job. Hope you don’t mind me asking, but what sort of pressure do you have on your jet wash for the initial clean?
Many thanks
Thanks Barry 👍. Don't mind at all, full 200 bar from my Honda 👍
@@PrestigeExternalCleaning hey many thanks for the reply that’s great. My Kranzle will only do 130, so I suppose that’ll have to do. Cheers👍🏼
Absolutely love watching your videos m8 great work how do you price your jobs
👍👍👍.Thank you
Thank you too
I'm surprised they didn't have you clean the cap on top of the wall, it looks to have plenty of Lichen, and black spots on it, it doesn't go well with the great job on the driveway.
Do you ever treat the brick pavers with anything to bring back the colour
Hi mate,
What hypochloride do you use? And how long do you leave it for?
Cheers in advance
Sean
Hi, what sand did you use ? I can sometomes see poeple rince the sand with water after putting it between the slabs, and sometimes poeple dont rince it. Does it depends on the type of sand you are usin g?
Hi there! I asume you charge your job by square feet? And how much? Thanks! Keep on with your excelent job.😊
Take care of your lungs man! Keep up the great work!
At 11:35 you gave yourself a hint!
Standing in your shoes and lungs incl? I would try salt. Look it up if you will on which type. Good luck dude
I don’t understand what you’re trying to say. Please explain? Thanks
"Mr. Sandman bring me a dream...please turn on your magic beam, Mr. Sandman bring me a dream" So I was pondering what kind of mischief could we get into if we put Sir Nick, Ben from Flawless, and Sid from Partridge in the same van, for one massive clean up ??
🤣, lol yes that would be a very interesting day Jeremy 👍
That would be so cool to put them altogether, I have seen Ben & Nick work together.
Keep your mask on! It came out great!
Thank you! Will do!
Didn't mentioned the name of organic solution which was sprayed...
Hypo, hypothetically ;)
What made the spray so foamy?
I don't think its organic, I could be wrong but isn't Nick using Sodium hypochlorite with a jet sprayer? Hence " Hypo "
Spot on Alina 💕
Sodium hypochlorite, aka hypo
Top Job Mate 😉👍🏻 us subscribers won't have any of your videos to watch if your not around to upload them ☹️... 👉🏻Stay Safe👈🏻 Brother 🙂👍🏻
Aw thanks brother, that genuinely means a lot 🤜🤛
What type of Ratio do you use
...
What about the chemicals that you use? Is it harmful to plants, etc?
Not if pre and post soaked
Did you know that poolwater can have glorine in it for days and not smell like glorine, untill dirt from skin and or pee comes in contact? Creating the classic smell
No I didn’t know that. Very interesting. I’ve learned something new today, love it 😍 👍
One thing I can honestly say about you, you are meticulous. If you have to broom and bucket the whole job, YOU will do it. You even critique your own work, lol. I like you. Lotsa ❤
Wow, thank you!
What mask are you wearing?
How many times must I scold you about not taking off the mask while softwashing? :( You're definitively too reckless to your health. Also, you don't need to worry about speaking through the mask, I can understand you there just fine. So stop that :(
