What Is Professional Oil & Rust Stain Removal?
Oil and rust are two of the toughest stains on exterior surfaces. Motor oil seeps deep into porous concrete and spreads with rain. Rust forms when metal fixtures, patio furniture, or irrigation leave orange-brown trails that ordinary soap won’t touch. Our service pairs targeted detergents with controlled pressure to break bonds, draw out contamination, and rinse stains away. The result is a cleaner, brighter surface that improves curb appeal and helps surfaces last longer.
Why It Matters For Your Home Or Business
- Restores curb appeal so your property looks welcoming and well-kept.
- Helps protect concrete and pavers from long-term discoloration and etching.
- Reduces slip risk from fresh oil on driveways, parkades, and walkways.
- Prepares surfaces for sealing or painting so coatings adhere properly.
- Creates a better first impression for guests, tenants, and customers.
If you’re also refreshing siding, patios, or fences, you can bundle service with our residential pressure washing for a smoother, single-visit cleanup.
How Our Process Works
1) Inspection And Surface Test
We walk the area, confirm surface type, and note stain age and depth. A small test spot helps us select the right cleaner and pressure.
2) Targeted Pretreatments
Oil stains are treated with emulsifying cleaners that pull hydrocarbons out of pores. Rust marks get specialty removers designed for minerals and orange oxidation on concrete, stone, or vinyl. Dwell times are carefully monitored for effectiveness and surface safety.
3) Controlled Pressure Rinse
We rinse with the proper tip, temperature, and PSI for the surface, keeping water and detergents contained. On large areas like parkades or drive lanes, a surface cleaner delivers consistent results with tidy edges.
4) Post-Clean Care And Prevention Tips
You’ll get simple aftercare pointers to keep stains from returning quickly. That can include drip trays under vehicles, gentle cleaning for the first 24–48 hours, and optional sealing recommendations if you want extra protection.

Local Conditions We Tackle Across Vancouver, BC
From Kitsilano and Mount Pleasant to East Vancouver, Fairview, and Shaughnessy, we see oil drips from daily parking, rust below metal railings and irrigation, and tracked grime after winter storms. In coastal air, metal fixtures can rust faster, leaving orange streaks on concrete or siding. We also service garages and small parkades where vehicles sit longer and leaks settle into porous slabs. Whether it’s a single spot on a new driveway or a patchwork of older stains, we adapt the approach to your surface and the age of the stain.
Home And Commercial Options
Homeowners often pair stain removal with a broader refresh. If you’re cleaning siding, patios, or fences too, ask about scheduling with residential pressure washing so we can treat stains and wash large areas efficiently in one trip.
Business owners and strata managers can cut downtime by grouping entrances, sidewalks, and loading zones together. See our commercial pressure washing options to keep storefronts, lots, and walkways looking clean and professional.
What To Expect On Service Day
- Arrival window and walk-through to confirm priorities.
- Cone or barrier placement where needed for safety.
- Pretreatments and dwell time based on stain type.
- Methodical rinse and detail pass for edges and grooves.
- Final check with you to review results and next steps.
Scheduling is flexible. We can work mornings or afternoons and coordinate around vehicle access. For multi-unit sites, we’ll map a simple plan so residents have clear parking guidance.
Care Tips To Keep Stains From Coming Back
- Place drip trays or mats under vehicles that tend to leak.
- Address fresh spills quickly by blotting, not scrubbing hard.
- Consider sealing high-traffic concrete to slow down absorption.
- Rinse off winter de-icing residue and spring pollen to reduce dulling and rust transfer.
Satisfaction-first service means we focus on real improvement and clear expectations for tough, set-in stains. Some deep oil or long-standing rust may lighten significantly rather than disappear in a single visit; we’ll discuss realistic outcomes before work begins and suggest follow-up options if needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Many stains come up dramatically with the right pretreatment and rinse. Older, deeply set stains in porous concrete may need a second pass or may lighten to a faint shadow. We’ll test, explain expected results, and get your go-ahead before we proceed.
We choose detergents and methods for the specific surface and keep runoff controlled. Landscaping is covered or rinsed as needed, and we protect nearby materials like glass, wood, and soft stone.
Pricing varies by stain size, surface type, and access. Small spots go quickly; larger areas or older stains can take more dwell time and detail work. Call 778-951-8565 and we’ll provide a clear estimate after a few quick questions or photos.
