Algae, Mould and Lichen Remover FAQs
How do I get rid of algae, mould and lichen on my patio?
The easiest way to remove algae, mould and lichen from a patio is to apply a dedicated remover that dissolves the growth, with no scrubbing, rinsing or pressure washing needed afterwards.
Green growth tends to appear on shaded or damp areas of paving, particularly through the warmer months, and it can make surfaces slippery and unsafe underfoot. The HSE guidance on slips and trips highlights contaminated surfaces as a common cause of falls, which is why keeping paving clean matters for safety as well as appearance. Resiblock Algae, Mould and Lichen Remover clears growth from driveways, patios and walkways and continues to work as a disinfectant after application.
Once your paving is clean, consider protecting it with a product from the Resiblock patio sealer range to help keep stains and algae at bay for longer.
What surfaces can algae, mould and lichen remover be used on?
Resiblock Algae, Mould and Lichen Remover can be used on concrete block paving, concrete slabs and flags, natural stone, porcelain paving and tarmac.
This versatility means one product can treat almost every outdoor hard surface around your home, from the driveway to the patio and garden paths. It is a practical choice if you have a mix of paving materials, as there is no need to buy separate cleaners for each. If you are unsure whether your surface is suitable, the product details and Resiblock technical data sheets give full specifications.

Is algae remover safe for plants and pets?
Resiblock Algae, Mould and Lichen Remover is biodegradable and free from harsh acids and bleaches, making it safe for surrounding plants and wildlife when used as directed.
Many traditional paving cleaners rely on harsh chemicals that can harm lawns, borders and garden wildlife. Resiblock’s remover uses an environmentally friendly dissolving technology instead, so you can clean your paving without compromising the health of your garden or pets. The Royal Horticultural Society offers wider advice on gardening in ways that protect plants and wildlife.

Do I need to scrub or jet wash after applying algae remover?
No. Resiblock Algae, Mould and Lichen Remover requires no scrubbing, rinsing or pressure washing after application.
You simply apply it to the affected area and let it work, as the growth gradually dissolves and disappears. Avoiding pressure washing also has a practical benefit for block paving, as high pressure jets can wash out jointing sand and loosen pavers over time. The remover’s disinfectant qualities also help protect the surface from microbial regrowth for longer.
For step by step instructions, follow the Resiblock application guidelines, or contact Resiblock on 01268 273344 for advice.
How much algae, mould and lichen remover do I need?
Resiblock Algae, Mould and Lichen Remover covers 5 to 10 square metres per litre, depending on how heavily the surface is affected.
Lightly affected paving needs less product, so each litre goes further, while areas with thick or established growth may need more. Measuring the area first and allowing for the level of growth will help you order the right quantity. Because a small amount covers a good area, it is an economical option for larger spaces such as driveways and extensive patios.
