Driveways, walkways, patios, concrete - restored.
Hot-water rotary surface cleaning at controlled high pressure. The mechanical force lifts embedded dirt, oil, tire-mark stains, and biological growth that soft wash chemistry alone won't touch. We reserve true high-pressure for hard surfaces only.
Driveways, walkways, patios, sidewalks, garage floors, brick paths, paver entries, pool decks, concrete steps.
Annual cleaning recommended for Metro Atlanta climate. After storms or pollen-heavy spring, mid-year refresh keeps surfaces presentable.
Workmanship guaranteed against streaking, missed sections, and uneven results - we return and address at no charge.
Pressure washing at Sunshine means hot-water rotary surface cleaning on hard surfaces. The mechanical force lifts embedded dirt, oil, tire-mark staining and biological growth that chemistry alone will not move. We use it on driveways, walkways, patios, sidewalks, garage floors, brick paths, paver entries, pool decks and concrete steps.
What we do not do is point a pressure washer at something that cannot take it. Siding, paint, window screens and roofs get our soft wash method instead. Twenty-two years in metro Atlanta means the job is matching the method to the surface, not turning the pressure up.
They are two different jobs and the difference matters more than most homeowners are told.
Pressure washing uses mechanical force. Hot water at controlled high pressure, driven through a rotary surface cleaner. It is the right answer on concrete, brick and stone, where the dirt is physically embedded and the surface is hard enough to take it.
Soft washing uses chemistry at low or zero pressure. It kills algae, mildew and organic growth at the spore level and rinses it away without mechanical contact. It is the right answer on siding, painted surfaces, screens and roofing, where high pressure forces water behind the surface, strips paint, or drives granules off shingles.
A company that only owns one of those will recommend it for everything. We run both, so the recommendation follows the surface.
No, and this is the most common thing we are asked to do that we talk people out of. High pressure on vinyl, wood or fiber-cement siding can force water behind the panels, damage caulking and seals, and strip paint. The water that gets behind siding does not dry quickly, and that is where the expensive problems start.
Dirty siding is an algae and mildew problem, not an embedded-dirt problem, so it responds to chemistry rather than force. Our house soft washing handles siding at low pressure and gets a better result than a pressure washer does, without the risk. If someone quotes you pressure washing for your siding, ask them which method they are actually bringing.
For oil, grease and embedded organic staining, hot water does work cold water cannot. Hot water dissolves what cold water rinses around. Most residential operators run cold-water-only systems because they are cheaper to buy and run. We use hot water, which is why oil spots and tire marks on a driveway come up rather than just fading.
There is no flat rate that survives contact with an actual driveway. Price moves with square footage, the surface, how accessible it is, and how heavy the staining is. A lightly soiled walkway and a fifteen-year-old oil-stained driveway are not the same job even at the same size.
Sunshine scopes the final number from a free on-site quote rather than publishing a range that changes the moment someone sees the property. If deep set-in oil staining will not fully lift, we tell you that during the quote instead of after the invoice.
Annual cleaning is the right cadence for this climate. Pollen season, summer storms and tree debris put more organic load on hard surfaces here than in drier parts of the country. Most driveway and patio results hold 12 to 18 months before build-up calls for a refresh, and a mid-year pass after a heavy pollen spring keeps surfaces presentable through the year.
Sunshine Cleaning Service has been family-owned and operating in metro Atlanta since 2004, with 190 reviews at 4.9 stars on Google. Mark is on the jobs. Workmanship is guaranteed against streaking, missed sections and uneven results, and if something is not right we come back and address it at no charge.
No - when the right PSI and tip selection is used for the surface. Concrete and brick handle high pressure well. Soft surfaces (siding, paint, screens) get our soft-wash method instead. Our 22 years of experience means we don't mismatch method to surface.
Yes. Hot-water rotary cleaning combined with degreaser pre-treatment removes most oil stains and tire marks. Deep, set-in oil staining (years old) may not fully remove - we provide an honest before/after expectation during quote.
Most driveway and patio pressure-wash results last 12-18 months in Metro Atlanta before pollen, algae, and tree debris build-up calls for refresh. Recurring annual customers get the best long-term presentation.
For oil, grease, and embedded organic stains - yes. Hot water dissolves what cold water just rinses around. Many residential pressure washers use cold-water-only systems; we use hot water for the hard cases.
Pressure washing uses mechanical force, hot water at controlled high pressure through a rotary surface cleaner, and belongs on hard surfaces like concrete, brick and stone. Soft washing uses cleaning solution at low or zero pressure to kill algae and mildew at the spore level, and belongs on siding, painted surfaces, screens and roofs. Sunshine runs both, so the method is chosen by the surface rather than by what happens to be on the truck.
We do not recommend it and we will not do it. High pressure on siding can force water behind the panels, damage caulking and seals, and strip paint, and water trapped behind siding is where the expensive problems begin. Dirty siding is an algae and mildew issue rather than embedded dirt, so it responds to chemistry. Sunshine cleans siding with the soft wash method instead, at low pressure.
There is no flat rate that holds. Price moves with square footage, the surface type, access, and how heavy the staining is. A lightly soiled walkway and a fifteen-year-old oil-stained driveway are different jobs at the same square footage. Sunshine scopes the number from a free quote rather than publishing a range that changes on arrival.
Driveways, walkways, patios, sidewalks, garage floors, brick paths, paver entries, pool decks and concrete steps. Hard surfaces where the dirt is physically embedded and the surface can take mechanical force. Siding, paint, screens and roofing get soft washed instead.
Yes. Residential driveways, patios and walkways are the core of what Sunshine does, alongside small commercial work. We are family-owned and have been working in metro Atlanta since 2004, with 190 reviews at 4.9 stars on Google.
Annually for metro Atlanta. Pollen season, summer storms and tree debris put more organic load on hard surfaces here than in drier climates. Most driveway and patio results hold 12 to 18 months, and a mid-year pass after a heavy pollen spring keeps things presentable.

No. Sunshine Cleaning Service is family-owned and has operated in metro Atlanta since 2004. Mark is on the jobs, which is why the quote and the crew tell you the same thing.
Hot-water rotary cleaning with degreaser pre-treatment removes most oil staining and tire marks. Deep set-in oil that has been there for years may not lift completely, and we give an honest before-and-after expectation at the quote rather than after the invoice.
