General Forum - cleaning slabs. - Page 1
Elite
My cleaning fest continues. The slabs on my balcony are looking a bit tired. There is a light covering of mossy type stuff in places. Will a brushing with a light bleach solution work? Or is that to be avoided. Any thoughts?

Care in the football community is proved not to work.
It's not easy being different. It's not easy being cool....but somehow I manage....

I'm assuming with it being a balcony that a power washer is not an option

There is no one below me so I could. Can I be bothered to hire one though?

You don't need to hire a pressure washer, Doc.
Mine only cost £27 from B+Q and it's perfectly fine for cleaning slabs.
It's small enough to be easily stored in a flat as well.
About the same size as a small hoover.

I shall have a look.

You'd need a hose as well, of course.
Long enough to get from a tap to the pressure washer, and allow some movement.
Get a good anti-kink hose though, a cheap one will do your head in as it cuts the supply off to the power washer and you're left dribbling like a 70 year old with prostate trouble.

Do you have an outside tap if not then you'll find connectivity a problem

Why?
All he'd need to do is run a hose from an inside tap to the outside area, then connect it to the pressure washer outside, using click on/off hose connectors.
Piece of p***.

Depends on what tap you're trying to connect to
Ever tried fitting a standard hose pipe to a mixer tap?
