Power Washing & Garden Services in Kildare
PD Power Washing provides high-pressure washing, low-pressure softwashing, roof biocide treatments, and full garden maintenance across County Kildare. Owned and operated by Patrick Doherty with over 10 years of hands-on experience.
Cleaned Safely. Treated Properly. Results That Last.
There is a world of difference between blasting away surface dirt and actually treating the root cause of organic growth on your property. High-pressure washing alone is like mowing a lawn—it strips away visible moss and algae on top, but leaves microscopic spores alive deep inside porous roof tiles, K-Rend plaster, and cobblelock paving. In Ireland’s wet climate, those hidden spores feed on dampness, bringing green slop and red streaks right back within months.
Patrick Doherty takes a smarter, longer-lasting approach across County Kildare. With over 10 years of hands-on experience, Patrick inspects every job first to match the exact cleaning method your home requires. Instead of forcing high pressure onto delicate surfaces, he utilizes specialized low-pressure softwashing combined with targeted biocidal treatments. This process sterilizes the surface, neutralizing moss, lichen, and algae spores at the root so your roof, walls, and driveway stay spotless for years, not just weeks.
You will always get an honest, upfront recommendation on what your property needs before any work starts. Because PD Power Washing is Patrick's own business, every job gets his personal attention, delivering a deep, safe clean that protects your home and stands up to the Irish weather.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Services
Power washing uses high-pressure water to physically strip away moss, lichen, and dirt instantly. Softwashing uses low water pressure paired with specialized biocidal treatments that sink deep into tiles to kill organic spores at the root. Softwashing is far gentler on delicate or aging tiles, eliminates the risk of forcing water under your roof space, and keeps moss from coming back much longer than high pressure alone.
No. Plant and property safety is a top priority on every single job. Surrounding lawns, hedges, and flowerbeds are pre-rinsed with clean water before any treatment begins, protecting the roots from chemical absorption. Once the biocide solution dries on the target surface, it is completely safe for pets, wildlife, and children.
Because a biocide softwash sterilizes the surface and kills microscopic root spores, results last significantly longer than standard power washing. In Ireland's damp climate, a softwashed roof or exterior wall typically stays free of red algae, black spot, and moss for 2 to 3 years before needing a light maintenance touch-up.
Yes. Patrick Doherty and PD Power Washing carry full public liability insurance covering all high-pressure washing, roof softwashing, gutter repairs, tree surgery, and garden maintenance across County Kildare. You have complete peace of mind while work is being carried out on your home.
We provide a solid workmanship guarantee on all gutter repairs, seam seals, and joint replacements. For roof, wall, and driveway cleaning, Patrick evaluates your property beforehand and gives you an honest expectation of longevity based on whether you select a standard wash or a long-lasting biocide treatment.
Yes, absolutely. We operate under a 100% zero-mess pledge. When cleaning roofs or driveways, we clear all moss debris, flush out downpipes, rinse down windows and doors, and hose off any overspray on neighboring properties. For hedge trimming and garden tidy-ups, every single leaf, branch, and scraping is packed up and hauled away.
Yes. High-pressure cleaning strips out the moss and weed roots growing between pavers, but it also washes away the original sand holding the blocks together. Once the driveway dries completely, we brush in fresh, kiln-dried sand to re-lock the paving blocks in place and prevent new weeds from taking root.
Not necessarily. As long as we have access to an outdoor water tap, an electrical socket, and clear access around the exterior, you do not need to take time off work. Patrick can complete the job, secure the property, and send you clear before-and-after photos along with a direct call when finished.

Patrick’s reputation is built job by job across County Kildare—and he treats every home with the exact same level of care as his own.
Over 10 Years of Real, Hands-On Experience: This isn't a new hobby or a franchise setup—Patrick has spent over a decade working directly on Irish roofs, walls, driveways, and gardens. That experience means knowing the precise pressure a cobblelock driveway can take without stripping the sub-base, and knowing when a roof requires delicate softwashing instead of high pressure. You will never be pushed into an expensive treatment your property doesn't need, only given practical advice based on ten years of real trade experience.
The Exact Right Method for Every Surface: Blasting maximum water pressure at every surface might look impressive for five minutes, but it often causes hidden damage to plaster, tiles, and joints that shows up months later. Patrick assesses the condition of your property before quoting, choosing between high-pressure washing, low-pressure softwashing, or targeted biocide treatments. That honest, transparent advice is built into every job before work ever begins.
