Real pricing for driveways, walkways, patios, siding, fences, and decks in the M1C area. Serving Highland Creek, West Hill, Centennial, and Rouge.
Highland Creek is one of the best-kept neighbourhoods in Scarborough. Big detached homes, mature lots, and streets that look great when homeowners stay on top of maintenance. After a Toronto winter, though, every driveway, walkway, and patio takes a beating. Here's what it costs to bring yours back.

| Driveway (2-car, concrete) | 300 to 500 sq ft | $149 to $199 |
| Driveway (3-car or large) | 500 to 800 sq ft | $199 to $299 |
| Interlock driveway | 300 to 600 sq ft | $199 to $349 |
| Front walkway + steps | 50 to 150 sq ft | $99 to $149 |
| Patio (concrete or stone) | 100 to 300 sq ft | $129 to $199 |
| Deck (wood or composite) | 100 to 300 sq ft | $149 to $249 |
| Fence (wood or vinyl) | 50 to 150 linear ft | $149 to $299 |
| House siding (soft wash) | 1,500 to 2,500 sq ft | $299 to $499 |

If you live in Highland Creek, you already know what winter does. Road salt from Military Trail and Ellesmere gets tracked onto driveways. De-icer chemicals leave white residue that eats into concrete over time. Sand from the city plow trucks fills every crack and joint. Oil drips from cold engines sit all season and soak in deeper every week.
Then there's the ravine factor. Highland Creek sits right along the ravine system, and that means extra moisture, shade, and organic matter. Walkways and patios on the north side of homes, or near tree lines, develop moss and green algae faster than almost anywhere else in Scarborough. If your backyard patio has that slippery green film by spring, you're not imagining it. That's the ravine doing its thing.
Spring pressure washing clears all of it. Salt residue, embedded sand, oil stains, moss, algae. Your surfaces go from winter-battered to looking like the day they were poured or laid.
Most homes in the established parts of Highland Creek, especially along Old Kingston Road and near Centennial, have poured concrete driveways. Years of road salt create surface pitting and white staining. Oil drips from winter cold starts soak in and darken over time. We pre-treat oil spots with commercial degreaser and use a surface cleaner attachment for even results across the whole slab. Expect $149 to $299 depending on size.
Newer builds and renovated homes in Highland Creek love interlock. It looks incredible when the joints are clean and the pavers pop with colour. But winter pushes sand out of joints, weeds take root in spring, and dirt fills the gaps. We wash at controlled pressure to protect joint sand, then recommend re-sanding with polymeric sand to lock everything back in place. $199 to $349 for driveways, $99 to $149 for walkways.
The homes backing onto the Highland Creek ravine have some of the nicest backyards in Scarborough. They also have the most algae. Shaded stone or concrete patios near the ravine develop green film, black mildew spots, and moss in the grout lines. We soft wash these with a biodegradable solution that kills algae at the root, not just on the surface. $129 to $199 for patios.
Wood fences along property lines grey out and develop mildew after a few seasons. Decks in shaded yards get slippery with algae. Soft washing brings back the natural wood tone without splintering or raising the grain. Great prep if you're planning to stain or seal this summer. Fences run $149 to $299, decks $149 to $249.
North-facing walls and walls near mature trees collect green algae and black streaks. We soft wash siding at under 500 PSI with eco-friendly solution. Never high pressure on siding. $299 to $499 for a full house wash.

Not usually. We just need access to an outdoor water spigot and the areas being cleaned. If your backyard has a locked gate, we'll need it unlocked. Many Highland Creek customers leave a note and go about their day.
Yes. We use biodegradable, eco-friendly solutions. We pre-wet plants near work areas and rinse them after. Once the surface dries, it's completely safe for kids and pets.
If we can access both sides, absolutely. Shared fences between neighbours are common in Highland Creek. We just need access to the other side, whether through your yard or a neighbour granting permission.
