But with frequent rain, humidity and surrounding greenery, these surfaces can quickly build up dirt, mould and slippery algae. A simple deep clean every few months can make a big difference. #### 1. Start with a Good Sweep Before washing anything, remove loose dirt, leaves and debris using a broom or blower. Organic matter holds moisture, which encourages moss and mould growth, a common issue in tropical weather. #### 2. Wash Away Built-Up Grime Once the loose dirt is gone, a pressure washer can make quick work of grime on hard surfaces. This image shows the same patio being pressure-washed. - ![Pressure Wash](https://blog.vinodpatel.com.fj/hs-fs/hubfs/Gemini_Generated_Image_xcq6clxcq6clxcq6%20(1).png?width=1408&height=690&name=Gemini_Generated_Image_xcq6clxcq6clxcq6%20(1).png) Hover message #### 3. Tackle Slippery Green Growth For areas with persistent algae or mould, a good scrub with a cleaner is often necessary.
