Cleaning a shared driveway with a neighbour
Shared drives cause a specific problem: cleaning one half leaves a visible line down the middle that looks worse than leaving the whole thing alone.

Why half a drive looks wrong
Cleaning changes tone, not just dirt. A cleaned half against a weathered half reads as a hard edge, and it stays visible for as long as the weathered side keeps ageing. Doing the whole surface avoids it entirely.
Agreeing it before we arrive
The practical questions are who is paying for what, whether both households can clear their vehicles on the same morning, and whether the surface is the same material throughout. Sorting that first makes the job straightforward.
One visit, one setup
A shared surface done in one visit uses one setup and one water run, which is the reason it works out better per household than two separate bookings on different days.
Common questions
- Can you invoice both households separately?
- Yes, split invoicing for one visit is fine.
- What if the neighbour will not take part?
- We can still do your section, but we will be honest that the join will be visible.
- Does the sand get replaced across the whole drive?
- On block paving, yes, across whatever area was washed.
