Professional Oil Spill & Stain Cleaning Across Canterbury
Oil spills, grease, fuel marks and stubborn stains can quickly make commercial properties look neglected and can create slip hazards in high-traffic areas.
Southern Wash Worx provides professional oil spill and stain cleaning across Canterbury for businesses, property managers, builders, commercial property owners and larger sites. We assess the surface and contamination before selecting the most suitable cleaning method and treatment.
Depending on the type and severity of the contamination, cleaning may involve:
- Commercial pressure washing
- High-flow exterior cleaning
- Suitable cleaning and degreasing solutions
- Surface agitation where appropriate

Remove Oil, Grease & Stubborn Surface Stains
Oil and other contaminants can be difficult to remove with standard pressure washing alone. Without the right preparation and cleaning method, stains can remain visible or spread across surrounding areas.
Our oil spill and stain cleaning service is designed for suitable hard surfaces including concrete, driveways, car parks, loading areas, paths, entrances and other commercial outdoor areas.
