How to Clean Your Patio Without Harsh Chemicals

The smarter way to refresh your outdoor space—without damaging your garden or your peace of mind.

A clean patio can completely transform your outdoor space—making it brighter, safer, and more inviting. But many patio cleaning products rely on extremely harsh formulas that can damage surrounding plants, irritate pets, or cause lasting wear on delicate surfaces.

At Brook & Bramble, we believe cleaning shouldn’t come with compromise.

Why Rethink Conventional Patio Cleaners?

Many traditional outdoor cleaners rely on high-strength bleach or aggressive acids that deliver fast results—but at a cost:

  • Damage to natural stone, timber, or composite decking
  • Runoff that harms nearby grass, flowerbeds, or soil
  • Fumes and residue that can irritate skin, eyes, and paws

That’s why we’ve developed a more balanced, surface-safe solution that’s designed to be tough on grime, gentle on outdoor surfaces when used as directed.

How to Clean Your Patio (The Brook & Bramble Way)

Here’s how to get the best results while protecting what matters around your home:

🧹 1. Clear and Sweep

Move furniture, pots, and decor. Sweep away loose debris to prepare the surface.

💧 2. Lightly Wet the Area

Hose down your patio to help loosen dirt and prevent the cleaner from absorbing too quickly—especially on porous stone or concrete.

🧼 3. Apply Brook & Bramble Outdoor Cleaner

Spray the cleaner evenly across the surface. Our formula has been developed over years of R&D to tackle algae, grime, and weather stains across a wide range of outdoor surfaces:

  • Works on: stone, concrete, brick, timber, resin, and composite decking
  • Use with care around: flower beds, lawns, and wildlife areas (rinse thoroughly)

🪣 4. Scrub with a Stiff Brush

Use a stiff broom or patio brush to agitate the surface and work the formula into textured areas and grooves.

⏳ 5. Let It Dwell

Allow the cleaner to sit for 10–20 minutes. This gives the active ingredients time to break down dirt and organic build-up.

🚿 6. Rinse Well

Thoroughly rinse the area with clean water, using a hose or watering can. Avoid over-spraying onto plant beds.
