Remove oil stains, tire marks, mold & algae from concrete. Power washing cost, process & maintenance for Central Florida driveways and garage floors.
Garage floors and driveways in Kissimmee accumulate oil stains, tire marks, mold, algae, and dirt over time. Power washing removes these stains and restores the concrete's appearance. Here's what works based on 15+ years of cleaning driveways and garage floors in Central Florida.
Oil stains don't come out with water pressure alone. We apply a degreaser (biodegradable cleaner) to oil spots, let it sit for 10-15 minutes to break down the oil, then agitate with a stiff brush. Fresh oil stains lift easily; old stains may lighten but not disappear completely.
For general dirt, mold, and algae, we apply a cleaning solution (sodium hypochlorite or concrete cleaner) across the entire surface. This kills mold and loosens grime. Solution sits for 5-10 minutes.
We use a surface cleaner attachment (rotating bar with dual nozzles) for even cleaning without streaks. Pressure: 3,000-4,000 PSI for concrete driveways and garage floors. The surface cleaner prevents "tiger striping" (uneven lines from a wand). Edges and corners are cleaned with a wand.
Final rinse removes all cleaner residue. We inspect for stubborn stains and re-treat if needed. Most driveways look 80-90% restored after one wash; deep stains may need a second treatment or sealing.
Deep oil stains that have soaked into porous concrete for years may not fully lift with power washing alone. Options:
Our take: Most Kissimmee driveways and garage floors look dramatically better after power washing—mold and algae come off completely, oil stains lighten 50-80%. If you have deep oil stains from years of parking, set realistic expectations. Power washing improves appearance; it won't make old stained concrete look brand new.
Driveway (2-car, ~400-600 sq ft): $100-$200
Large driveway (3-car or long, 800-1,000 sq ft): $200-$350
Garage floor (2-car, ~400-500 sq ft): $100-$200
Both driveway + garage floor: $200-$400
Pricing depends on size, stain severity, and whether degreasing or multiple treatments are needed. Heavy oil stains add $50-$100 for extra cleaning. See our power washing cost guide for more pricing.
Central Florida humidity encourages mold and algae growth on shaded driveways and garage aprons. Green or black patches appear in damp, shady spots (under trees, along north-facing sides). Power washing with mold-killing cleaner removes it completely. Mold will return over time if the area stays shaded and damp—annual or bi-annual power washing keeps it under control.
Sealing concrete driveways and garage floors after power washing provides several benefits:
Cost to seal: $0.50-$1.50 per sq ft. A 2-car driveway (500 sq ft) costs $250-$750 to seal. Sealer lasts 2-5 years depending on traffic and sun exposure. Not required, but recommended if you want long-term stain protection.
Fresh oil stains lift easily. Old, deep stains lighten 50-80% but may not disappear completely. Multiple treatments or sealing after cleaning helps.
No, if done correctly. We use appropriate pressure (3,000-4,000 PSI) and a surface cleaner to avoid etching. Old, crumbling concrete can be damaged by high pressure—we adjust technique for delicate surfaces.
Concrete driveways and garage floors dry in 2-4 hours in sunny Florida weather, longer in shade or high humidity. You can drive on it as soon as it's dry.
Yes. We power wash garage floors, but we don't clean walls or organize items. Move cars, motorcycles, and items off the floor before we arrive.
