Driveway Pressure Washing Cost Per Square Foot
in Dacula, GA
What Dacula homeowners actually pay for driveway cleaning — broken down by material, condition, and size so you know what to expect.
Driveway pressure washing in Dacula typically costs between $0.10 and $0.25 per square foot, though most companies - including Kidd's ProWash - quote by the job rather than by square footage. A standard two-car concrete driveway runs $100 to $250, while larger driveways or those with heavy oil stains, red clay buildup, or years of neglect may cost $250 to $400. The condition of the concrete matters just as much as the size.

Per-Square-Foot Pricing for Dacula Driveways
Per-square-foot pricing gives you a useful frame of reference, but it's important to understand that most pressure washing companies don't actually charge by the square foot. The reason is that condition, material, and accessibility all affect the time and resources needed, and two driveways with the same square footage can require very different amounts of work.
That said, here's what the per-square-foot math looks like for typical driveways in Dacula and Gwinnett County:
Light cleaning (annual maintenance): $0.08 to $0.15 per square foot. This is for driveways that are cleaned regularly and only have surface-level dirt, light pollen staining, and minor discoloration. These jobs go fast because there's minimal buildup.
Standard cleaning (1–3 years since last wash): $0.12 to $0.20 per square foot. This covers most driveways we see in Gwinnett County. There's visible mold, some tire marks, and general weathering that needs a proper surface cleaner to remove.
Heavy cleaning (3+ years or severe staining): $0.18 to $0.25+ per square foot. These are driveways with deep oil stains, thick red clay, heavy mold growth, or rust discoloration. They require pre-treatment chemicals, longer dwell times, and sometimes multiple passes with the surface cleaner.
What Dacula Homeowners Actually Pay by Driveway Size
To put per-square-foot numbers into perspective, here's what actual job pricing looks like based on common driveway sizes in the Dacula area:
Single-car driveway (200–300 sq ft): $75 to $150. These are common in older neighborhoods around downtown Dacula and along Dacula Road. Small footprint, quick job.
Two-car driveway (400–600 sq ft): $100 to $250. This is the most common driveway size we clean. Most homes in Hamilton Mill, along Fence Road, and in the Auburn Road corridor fall in this range.
Three-car driveway (600–900 sq ft): $175 to $350. Larger homes and newer subdivisions often have wider or longer driveways that push into this price range.
Extended or circular driveways (1,000+ sq ft): $300 to $500+. These are the driveways that curve around, have turnaround areas, or run a significant distance from the road to the garage. The price scales with the square footage, but the per-square-foot cost actually decreases on larger jobs because setup time is spread across more area.
Save money by bundling your driveway with other concrete surfaces. If we're already cleaning your driveway, adding your sidewalks, patio, or pool deck to the same visit is more efficient and usually costs less per surface than booking each one separately.
How Driveway Material Affects the Price
Poured Concrete
The most common driveway material in Gwinnett County. Standard pricing applies. Surface cleaners work efficiently on poured concrete, and it handles high-pressure cleaning well.
Pavers
Pavers require more careful cleaning because of the joints. Sand can wash out if pressure is too aggressive. Paver driveways often benefit from re-sanding and sealing afterward, which adds to the cost.
Stamped Concrete
Stamped concrete is popular in newer Dacula subdivisions. It requires adjusted pressure settings to clean without damaging the texture or color. Resealing after cleaning is recommended.
Asphalt
Asphalt is softer than concrete and requires lower pressure. We clean asphalt driveways but need to be more careful with the settings, which can add a small amount to the time and cost.
What Can Add to Your Driveway Cleaning Cost
Why Per-Job Quotes Are Better Than Per-Square-Foot Pricing
We don't charge by the square foot at Kidd's ProWash because it's not the most accurate way to price driveway cleaning. A 500-square-foot driveway with heavy oil stains and three years of mold growth costs significantly more to clean than a 500-square-foot driveway that was washed last year. Per-square-foot pricing doesn't account for that difference.
Instead, we come out to your property, look at the driveway, assess the condition, measure the area, and give you a flat-rate quote that covers everything. If there's oil removal needed, it's included. If there's red clay treatment required, it's included. You know your total price before we start, and there are no surprises when the job is done.
