How can I prevent algae growth on stone surfaces?

A common issue with patios, paths, and other outdoor stone surfaces is the recurring green buildup. This is mainly caused by algae, which thrive in damp and shady conditions. Even after thorough cleaning, the algae often return quickly – especially during autumn and winter. It not only makes your patio look unkempt but also creates slippery and unsafe surfaces. Causes include poor drainage, limited sunlight, and lack of protective coating. Traditional cleaning methods like scrubbing or pressure washing may offer short-term results, but they can also damage the surface. An effective long-term solution requires a product that not only cleans but also prevents future growth. Lithofin Patio Cleaner provides just that, offering lasting protection against algae and moss.
