What moves the price
- What is being washed — a path is a small pressure washing job, the outside walls of a house a large one
- The area — most pressure washing is priced by the square metre once the minimum call-out is passed
- Surface type — tarmac, sandstone and render need lower pressure or a soft wash, which takes longer
- Run-off — dirty wash water has to be kept out of surface water drains, which adds work on some sites
- London — pressure washing labour in the capital runs about a third above the UK average
- Aftercare — re-sanding block paving or sealing a surface after the wash is priced on top
Domestic cleaning prices in the UK are up 24% over five years (ONS Consumer Price Inflation, Domestic services and household services, to 2026 August). Five years ago a typical pressure washing would have cost about £200 — an estimate from today's guide price and that index, not a recorded price. Source: ONS MM23 D7E6 →

How to pay less
- Group the drive, patio and paths into one pressure washing visit to clear the minimum call-out once
- Ask for a price per square metre so you can compare pressure washing quotes like for like
- Seal surfaces after pressure washing so they stay clean longer between washes
Before you book
- Only clean water may go into a surface water drain, so ask the pressure washing contractor where the run-off will go
- Public liability insurance is not a legal requirement for pressure washers, but it is worth asking about
- Shut windows and move cars, pots and garden furniture away from the area being washed
- Point out render, sandstone or old pointing, which a high-pressure wash can damage
Pressure Washing cost: questions people ask
£100–£900 per job, about £300 on average. A garden path or small patio is the cheapest; the outside walls of a detached house, or a large mixed job, is the dearest.
A couple of hours for a path or patio and up to a full day for the outside of a whole house.
No. Tarmac, sandstone, render and roof tiles need low pressure or a soft wash, because high pressure can damage them or force water underneath.
Only clean water may go into a surface water drain, which runs to rivers. Water carrying cleaning products should go to the foul drain or be collected.
Re-sanding, sealing, roof cleaning and repairs to the surface are usually priced separately.
