Patio Cleaning in Uniontown, Ohio
And the large expanses of relatively young concrete — driveways, aprons, patio and pool surrounds — are the surfaces owners notice first, because organic growth and rust bleed read obviously against light gray concrete.
New suburban construction means large footprints, stone and vinyl combination elevations, three-car garages with wide aprons, poured patios, and fresh concrete that stains fast because it has not cured a decade of sealant into itself yet.
How we do it
Patio surfaces vary — pavers, natural stone, or poured concrete — and each drains and cleans differently. Matching the treatment and pressure to the material is what prevents joint erosion or surface damage.
- Work Around Furnishings. We work around accessible patio furnishings rather than requiring a full teardown.
- Identify Material & Drainage. We identify the patio material and drainage points before starting.
- Suitable Treatment & Controlled Pressure. We apply a suitable treatment and use controlled cleaning pressure for the material.
- Careful Rinse. We rinse surrounding surfaces carefully.
The method does not change from one town to the next — what changes is what we find when we get there. The full patio cleaning page has the rest of it.
What it costs in Uniontown
Uniontown is mostly newer suburban construction, and newer here means larger — a 2,500 square foot home is {{price:house-wash:2500}} and 3,000 square feet is {{price:house-wash:3000}}. A second story does not change that; the price follows the square footage. Ten-year-old vinyl still collects the same north-side algae as anything older, so being newer changes the price only by changing the size.
Here is the whole table. Find the size that matches and that is the price in Uniontown — not a starting point, not an average, and not a figure that moves when we arrive.
Patio & Paver Cleaning
Patios, pavers and decorative concrete, by measured area.
| Size | Price | Added to a house or roof wash | Typical time on site |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to 500 sq ft | $169 | $135 | 1 hr 15 min |
| 501 - 1,000 sq ft | $249 | $199 | 1 hr 45 min |
| 1,001 - 1,500 sq ft | $339 | $271 | 2 hr 15 min |
| 1,501 - 2,000 sq ft | $429 | $343 | 2 hr 45 min |
Added to a house wash or roof soft wash, this comes at the add-on price. The saving is real rather than a discount dressed up: the drive, the hookup, the mix and the pack-down are paid for by the first service on the visit, so the second one genuinely costs us less to do.
Included: Surface cleaning and an algaecide post-treatment.
Not included: Polymeric sand replacement is quoted per job and is done after cleaning, before any sealing.
The patio material and its drainage are identified, accessible furnishings are moved clear, a suitable treatment is applied and the surface is cleaned at controlled pressure. On pavers the passes run across the joint lines rather than along or into them, and the surrounding surfaces are rinsed carefully afterward.
A paver patio is held together by the sand in its joints. Pressure aimed into a joint removes that sand, and once enough of it is gone the pavers start to shift, rock underfoot and open up further every season. Cleaning across the joints gets the growth out of them without excavating them. Cleaning across the joints gets the growth out without excavating them, which is the difference between a clean patio and a patio that now needs re-sanding.
What to expect: If the joints were already depleted before we started, re-sanding will be needed either way and we will say so at the walkthrough rather than after. Polymeric sand replacement is quoted per job and is done after cleaning and before any sealing.
Worth adding: Concrete Sealing. Sealing a paver surface locks the joint sand down and slows the growth from coming back into it, which is where growth on a patio always starts.
Ohio does not charge sales tax on flatwork — driveways, walks, patios and concrete — so the figure above is the figure, in Uniontown and everywhere else we work.

Patio Cleaning in Uniontown — common questions
I have a long driveway and outbuildings near Hartville. Do you handle that kind of property?
Yes. Larger properties with long concrete drives, gravel-to-concrete transitions, outbuilding aprons, and open exposure are common around Hartville, and they are quoted by measured area and condition rather than as a flat house-and-drive package. Open exposure and nearby fields usually mean more organic staining on roofs and siding and more tracked soil on the concrete. On a property that size the walkthrough covers all of it, because the outbuildings and the drive are usually where the surface area actually is. You can get your own number right now: the [instant estimate](/instant-estimate) prices your property from the address in about two minutes, and what you accept is what you pay.
Do you cover the Stark County suburbs around Canton?
Yes. North Canton, Massillon, Louisville, Uniontown, and Hartville sit close enough together that a property in any of them can usually be seen in person without that becoming its own trip. The housing across them ranges from century brick near the Canton core to new-build stone and vinyl in Lake Township, so the method is set house by house rather than by which suburb it sits in. Put your address into the instant estimate for a price in about two minutes, or call if you would rather talk it through.

My Uniontown house is only about ten years old. Does it really need cleaning?
Newer suburban homes are not low-maintenance homes; they are differently-maintained homes. Vinyl and stone-veneer elevations need chemistry matched to the panel and to the mortar joint, not one pressure setting run across both — and a veneer joint is easier to damage than the panel next to it. What owners here notice first is almost always the concrete: driveways, aprons, patio and pool surrounds where organic growth and rust bleed read obviously against light gray concrete. So on a house this age it is usually the hardscape that is due, with the siding close behind.
My roof looks fine from the street but I was told it has algae. Which is it?
Both can be true, and on the newer Uniontown houses that is common. Architectural shingle roofs on wide, complex rooflines hold moisture in the valleys and on the north planes, and that is where the first algae establishes while the rest of the roof still looks new. So the visible face of the roof is the last place to check, not the first. We look at the valleys and shaded planes on the walk-through and tell you whether you are looking at early growth worth treating now or a roof that can wait — treating early is cheaper and easier than treating a fully streaked roof later.

I own a sit-down restaurant on Cleveland Avenue. What matters most out front?
Patio slabs, entry concrete and canopy appearance — in that order, because that is the order a customer standing outside takes them in while deciding whether to walk in. A stained slab or a streaked entry reads as neglect before anyone has seen the inside of your building. The commercial base here is smaller and more local than in Canton or Akron and skews toward sit-down restaurants and service businesses along Cleveland Avenue and Edison Street, which means your frontage is being compared to your immediate neighbors' rather than to a big plaza. We quote a one-time clean and a recurring interval so you can see the difference. The [maintenance plan](/maintenance-plan) is built for exactly this: an autumn visit, next year's price held, and a longer roof warranty.
The rust stain on my concrete keeps coming back. Why?
Because rust staining has a source, and until the source is dealt with the stain returns no matter how well it was treated. On light gray concrete it reads obviously, which is why owners here notice it early. Common sources are fertilizer with iron content, a metal fixture or railing shedding onto the slab, well water with iron in it running through an irrigation head, or something metal that was left sitting. On the estimate we treat the stain and tell you what we think is feeding it, because otherwise you are paying for the same removal every season.
Is our patio and pool surround part of a house wash or a separate job?
Separate, and priced that way. The Canterbury-era estates carry the heaviest hardscape load anywhere in Hudson — patios, covered outdoor living areas, pergolas, outdoor fireplaces, built-in grills, in-ground pool surrounds and stone elevations. That is stone-and-masonry cleaning rather than house washing: different solutions, different pressure, joint-safe technique, and considerably more time on site. Bundling it into a house-wash number would either overprice the house or underprice the hardscape. So the estimate breaks them out and you can take either one on its own. You can get your own number right now: the [instant estimate](/instant-estimate) prices your property from the address in about two minutes, and what you accept is what you pay.
Do you really travel to the outer cities, or mostly stay near Canton?
We travel. Cleveland, Solon, Youngstown, Mansfield, and Dover are regular work rather than exceptions. Because they are a longer drive, jobs in those directions are scheduled as full days or grouped with other work heading the same way, so there is a little less flexibility on exact dates. Larger and multi-surface scopes are the easiest to fit at that distance. Build the estimate and you have the price; we confirm a realistic window when you accept it.

I heard some houses here are made of concrete panels. Does that change the cleaning?
Significantly, and it is the first thing we check for in this valley. The Buckeye Land Company estate is nearly 250 houses built in 1918 from factory-produced precast concrete panels, National Register listed since 1982, and precast concrete needs a very different approach than brick or siding — misidentifying it is how a house gets damaged. So the construction type is identified during the estimate rather than on the day, and it is written down along with the method that follows from it. Precast is recognizable once you know to look: large flat panels with regular vertical joints, and no wood anywhere in the wall.
Can I get my price without talking to anyone?
Yes. Put in your name, a way to reach you and the property address, and the next screen has your prices on it. We look your home up from the address — we are able to determine the square footage, and we measure your roof from aerial survey data, so the roof price is measured rather than guessed. Choose what you want cleaned, and you get an itemised estimate on its own page: every line, the sales tax at your county's rate, and what the price assumes. It is texted and emailed to you as well, so you can think about it and come back. Nothing is booked until you accept it, and you can leave off anything you do not want first.
