"They did a good job. They answered all my questions and had good communication. My driveway was an old two-lane road about 1700 feet long. They patched what they could I did a good job sealing it up. I will use them again when the need arises!!"
"Just a quick shout out to Combs Custom Concrete about how happy I am with their services and the transformation they made on my garage floor. I have included some before and after pictures. Not only were they pleasant to work with, I felt their charges were fair. They also explained the procedure and what to expect along the way; I had color choices, and they finished in a timely manner. I highly recommend them"

"They got my drive way finished as quickly as they said it would be done and it looks amazing. Everyone working was very kind and respectful to the rest of my property. I would definitely recommend going with them for your concrete and construction needs."
"Job was done quickly and professionally. Price was very fair and the quality was outstanding! I would highly recommend him for all your concrete needs!"
"Removed deteriorating and damaged driveway and replaced it with a beautiful new and improved driveway. Completed within the agreed upon time period and beyond expectations for quality!"
"Very professional from start to finish. They were able to sneak us in between other projects because of the recent crazy weather we have had. They had to split the job, 2 days work, gone for a few days and finished up in 2 days. Communicated with me to let me know what was going on and why they took this break. They try to focus on one job at a time, but since they were able to get us in so early in the season, I had no problem with them taking a break. The break came at a natural time in the process and did not affect the outcome of the pool deck. They did a great job of cleaning up during and after their work. Very professional group. They were so good, we plan on getting them back to fix our driveway later this summer."

The best driveway cleaner for oil stains depends on the type of surface and the severity of the stain. An absorbent abrasive like baking soda works for many circumstances. By following up the baking soda with a white vinegar rinse, you can increase the effectiveness and ideally remove the stain for good. Concrete oil stains may respond better to oil stain removers designed specifically for concrete if the stain is tough to remove with at-home ingredients.
If your epoxy application ended up a bit messy and left spills behind, there are several ways to clean epoxy off of a concrete floor. You can use a power washer with at least 3,000 PSI. However, it may be easier to use a scraping tool or an acidic cleaner, like vinegar, to remove unwanted epoxy.
If the entire floor has epoxy and you want to remove just excess epoxy stains, these methods could still strip parts of the epoxy floor. Move carefully and in small areas to minimize damage, or call a pro for an expert finish.
The ideal PSI (pounds per square inch) for a pressure washer depends on the surface you are cleaning. For general home use, a pressure washer with a range of 2,000 to 3,000 PSI is recommended and powerful enough for most residential projects.
The specific PSI you should use varies by task:
High-Pressure Tasks (2,500-3,000 PSI): Tough materials like concrete, stone, masonry, and brick can handle higher pressures. This is suitable for removing stubborn stains from driveways or cleaning graffiti.
Low-Pressure Tasks (around 600-1,300 PSI): Softer surfaces require a gentler touch to avoid damage. Use a low PSI setting for cleaning wood decks (especially softwoods like pine and cedar), vinyl siding, outdoor furniture, and stucco.
For best results, choose the right nozzle for your surface, such as a 15-degree nozzle for siding or a surface cleaner attachment for driveways. Using an extendable wand can also make the work easier and more ergonomic.
Some homeowners have luck using pressure washers, but this only works for old or weaker concrete sealants and with very powerful pressure washers. You’ll get better results by pressure washing water-based sealants. However, it’s worth trying on any sealant if you’re hoping for the least toxic, least expensive, and most DIY-friendly option. To try this method, rent or buy the most powerful pressure washer you can find and take several passes at the concrete, completely pressure washing the entire area. You may need to repeat the process multiple times to see results.
The best ways to increase the lifespan of your driveway are to carry out proper maintenance and get repairs done quickly. First, reseal your driveway every one to three years to protect it from the elements. If you start to notice significant cracks, hire a professional to diagnose the problem before it gets more serious. You can also use sand instead of salt when de-icing your driveway (since salt is corrosive) and clean your driveway annually using a pressure washer to keep it in tip-top shape.
