What do patios and terraces in Sintra need?
In the hills around Sintra a terrace can stay damp for days after rain. Moss grows in the joints, lichen sits on the stone steps, and the green film makes the surface slippery.
Many patios here are laid in granite or local stone, next to old walls and big trees. Leaves stay wet on the stone and leave dark marks when they finally dry.

How does patio cleaning work in Sintra?
Moss out, stone intact
We lift moss from the joints at low pressure, so the stone and the mortar stay put.
Lichen softened first
Lichen holds on tight. A treatment softens it before we rinse, which spares the stone.
Steps done by hand
Stone steps get a brush and a gentle rinse, so the edges do not chip.

Questions about patio cleaning in Sintra
What does patio cleaning cost in Sintra?
It depends on the size, the stone and how much moss and lichen there is. Send a wide photo and a close-up of the joints. You get a free quote, and we confirm it on site before we start.
Why is my terrace in Sintra slippery?
That is the green film algae make on damp stone. It comes off with the clean, and the terrace is safer to walk on straight away.
How long does the clean last up here?
Usually a season or two before the first green comes back. Shade and mist decide how fast.
Can you reach houses up the narrow lanes?
Mostly, yes. Tell us how close a car can get when you send the photos. Some lanes above the town are too narrow for a van.
