Sandra Boynton –
20 year old large Indian sandstone terrace looks like new! Product was recommended and I am glad to say we hadn’t purchased other products only to find they hadn’t worked, which would have put us off buying Floorseal’s product. I have some great before and after pix if you are interested in having them. We have bought the preserver so will review that later.
Christopher Hanwell –
Excellent product. Removed black spot lichen from my block paving with a dwell time of 30 mins and from my off white Praal M render in 2 hours.
David Ward –
Absolutely superb. I put a review on trust Pilot too, just stunned at how good this is. Follow simple instructions and wait to be amazed
Geoff Twiss –
Brilliant product and service! I ordered it on Wednesday morning – the standard delivery arrived at Thursday lunchtime – and the blackspot had all gone that same afternoon!
I had jet-washed the patio a couple of days earlier (which had only served to highlight the blackspot!) and wetted it thoroughly before applying the Remover using a back-pack sprayer. Our Indian sandstone patio is six years old and measures 90 sq.m. – I applied the Remover liberally all over the patio and used just over half of a 20 litre drum. I left it for a full hour to do its stuff, then jet-washed the patio again.
It has transformed the patio, returning it to its original condition – this is definitely the stuff to use, and it really WORKS!!
iain Schofield –
The best black spot remover !!
I used Black spot remover on my Indian sand stone with excellent results. Definitely does what it says very well and will used again when / if required. I did note that i got best results when using on a none windy and none sunny day. The coverage a got was a lot more than quoted so that was great and i did constantly ensure the surface remained wet by applying more when required. So i didn’t skimp on using the product at all! So just great stuff 🙂 Have already recommenced to several friends.
I have now just purchased the Sealer and will leave a review in the next few weeks.
Amy Russell –
Amazing results! A must buy if you have black spot! This product came recommended by a friend, and the results have surpassed expectations. My Yorkshire stone patio was covered in black mould, with the patio colour shades of black and grey. Within a few hours, you would think it was a new patio – amazed by the results, it looks fantastic and is totally transformed!! The product covered the area quoted (20-25m) and I’ve just purchased the Natural Stone sealer, so I can ensure the black spot stays away!
Jill Harris –
Delighted with my ‘new’ patio! I can’t believe how well this product worked! I used it on both my patio and garden wall and both have come up like new!
The patio was laid and wall built around 14 years ago and over time the wall had become blackened and patio had black spots. One use of this and completely disappeared, I could actually see it disappearing in front of my eyes! Some parts were completely clear within half an hour, others took slightly longer. Quick wash down with the power washer (more a rinse/wash off than an actual clean) and all done.
Excellent service too, fast delivery and questions I had answered promptly.
Thank you
Gary Mason –
I have used this product today after many years of trying others. I have to say that this stuff is amazing, my sandstone patio looks better than when it was first laid.
All the the black spots and lichen has completely gone, cannot recommend enough!
Lawrence Vosper –
There are so many patio cleaners on the market that it was hard to make a choice but I was delighted – and astonished – at how effective this was on both Indian sandstone and concrete slabs. I had power hosed the patio several times over the years but there were lots of black spots as well as a sort of grime. I simply watered it on (Tip: a fine rose is much more economical) and left it for a couple of hours (not very scientifically – they just looked clean by then). I then hosed it off with a power washer set on a wide spray i.e. not a power wash as such. The sandstone came up like new – really good; the concrete slabs were very good but could have done with a little longer. I’ll know next time. Generally, a first class experience. The ultimate test – my wife is very pleased too!
Pat Flynn –
THIS STUFF REALLY WORKS
After using some very cheap and some very expensive patio cleaners the black spots were still there. I though I would try Black Spot Remover Plus after reading some encouraging reviews. I have not been disappointed, the blacks spots I have been scrubbing with a pressure washer for 3 weeks with a scrubbing attachment have gone great. I used a garden spray to apply and left for around 2 hours then scrubbed/hosed it off, slabs look like new. This is a potent chemical be sure to wear full PPE gloves goggles wellies. Now to buy another can!!!
Ben Broome –
WOW!! This product is amazing! My patio is circa 20 years old and was ridden with lichen. I’d had a professional cleaning company come and jet wash it, they tried some chemicals to no avail. I was worried about the £80 outlay but was comforted by the reviews on this website and the photos on Amazon. The response to a query from the company was very quick too. Overall incredibly impressed and I would recommend anyone to use this product!! It looks brand new again!!! 5*****
Craig –
Brilliant stuff – patio looks really good again
Les –
Blackspot what blackspot absolutely brilliant.My 3yr patio looks like it was just laid.Instructions were (excuse the pun) spot on.Graham was really helpful.I cannot praise this product enough.
Barbara –
27 Aug 2019. Have tried other cleaners for my block pavers and concrete paving slaps with very little effect, so wasn’t expecting very much but WOW! The block paving path was not just dirty but full of black spot and it came up like brand new…all clean and sparkly! The concrete slabbed patio was 40+ years ex council pavement slabs….with lichen, paint spots, moss and really black in places. Pressure washer took some off, but this cleaner has made it look cleaner than it’s ever been, and uniform in colour!
I’m SO pleased and can’t thank Graeme for all his help and advice too. Totally recommend Floorseal products
Scott Robson –
My Indian sandstone patio was laid about 5-6 years ago, and it has had a number of pressure washes during that time, but it was looking dull and dirty and full of black spot, which pressure washing alone doesn’t shift. I found Floorseal and thought I’d give it a go.
For a start, Graeme at Floorseal was super helpful with what I needed in terms of products and what quantity I should buy, and he was full of help and advice on the application of the products too. And the products are delivered by Fedex next day when purchased direct from Floorseal.
I started off with the Black Spot Remover, which is truly an amazing product. The instruction on the pack and the website are really good, but I also spoke to Graeme at Floorseal, who talked me through what to expect, which prepared me really well (I’m no pro at this sort of stuff, by any means!).
I used a low pressure sprayer to apply (bought on Amazon for about £10), which was super easy to use. I bought the 25L quantity for about 50 sq m of patio and had about 4L left when finished. I’m know I could’ve used less product, but as this was the first time I’ve used it, I aired on the side of caution and applied more than I needed to make sure of the coverage. Also, the 25L option is cheaper than 3x 5L tubs, so it was a no brainer for me to go for the 25L option.
The basic process was to moisten the patio, then liberally apply the Black Spot Remover. You can see it starting to work immediately, but Graeme at Floorseal was very specific to ensure a decent “dwell” time, i.e. how long the product is kept on the patio. It is important to keep the patio moist during this time, by either topping up with more product or spraying lightly with water. I chose to apply more product to keep the patio moist, which is probably why I went through so much product, but I don’t regret that at all, as the results are phenomenal.
After the product has “dwelled” for about 60 mins, I washed it off with a hose and then followed up with a pressure wash. The results were unbelievable, with all black spot gone!
I followed up with the Indian Sandstone Sealer & Colour Intensifer treatment which is a fantastic product too, which I have also reviewed.
I’m so happy with the finish and it’s brought my 5-6 year old patio back to life. I can’t recommend Floorseal’s products and company more. Thank you Floorseal.
Mrs Daines –
WOW.. This product is simply amazing. If I could give 6 stars out of 5 I would. My patio looks like the day it was laid.
I was so keen to use I forgot to wet the surface first, but I could see instantly the lichens disappear.
Amazing product. I only bought 5 litres which was a little shy of what I needed but you can see how dramatically different the untreated slabs are. I’ll be ordering more.
June –
So pleased with this product. Read the other reviews and was encouraged and I wasn’t disappointed. It’s taken away all the black spot and brought the patio back to life. Going to use the sealer and colour intensifier as well to finish the job properly
Adrian Walter –
Like everyone else I found this product to be really effective at removing black spots from my Indian sandstone. Sadly I spent 30% more for 25% less of a competitive product before I tried this, and when I did I wasn’t confident enough to order 25litres so I’m going to have to buy some more!
One thing to note is that the instructions are correct when they say not to apply it too sparingly. We had to do a second application in some areas where it was obviously sprayed on too thinly. The other thing is, don’t wear anything you want to keep, unless you want that 60’s tie-dyed look afterwards!
Dean –
Bought some floor seal black dot remover what a product just received another order for my second patio as I was a little sceptical so only ordered 5 ltr if your after your patio to look like the day it was laid this is the product and on top of this the service is first class got some patio sealer as well not used yet if it’s as good as the remover happy days
Peter murphy –
My review is the same as everyone else’s. Needed the 25l size for the amount of stone I had and could not believe the results. I had used a pressure spray every couple of years but was never happy with the outcome. They now look exactly how they did when I laud them in 2003. Thank you.
David Woodward –
Rang the number and talked to someone about my black dots and lack of colour on my Indian sandstones great help did what he told me to do what a result and transformation so pleased with this product it’s looks like it did 4 years ago all the black dots have gone and the colours looks amazing used a high power jet wash at the end 10 out of 10????ps got the grandson to fine mist it when it was getting dry for 1 hour when I was drinking wine in the sunshine ???? 5 litres =18×10 foot patio area out of a watering can
graeme –
Thank-you for such a positive review and taking the time out to write it.
Paul Derbyshire –
First of all, let me thank-you for the excellent service. Ordered on Sunday night (in effect, Monday morning); received the order at 9.30 on Tuesday morning. I made a phone call query about the product, and was given a very comprehensive and helpful answer. Thank-you once again.
The product has now been used and is excellent. The vast majority of black spot was removed with the first application. A few stubborn spots went with the second “spot” applicaion. Overall an excellent product.
graeme –
Thank-you for a great review it is appreciated.
Olivia Heywood –
Unbelievably good. I have never had a sandstone terrace before and did not know what to do about the black marks that had appeared. Scrubbing and pressure washer did not shift them but this amazing product cleared them all up in under one hour – so quick and easy to use and brilliant results. I am so grateful and want everyone who has the same issue to know about it!
graeme –
Thanks for the review and the time taken to send one.
graeme –
Thank-you for such a positive review!
graeme –
Thank-you for such a great review – it is appreciated, glad you liked the product.
Tony E –
My review is almost identical to that of Steven H. Our terrace has been down around twenty years and due to the blackspot on the sandstone slabs and surrounding wall we were thinking about a complete overhaul. Decided that it was worth the £120 to see if the chemical would make a difference. Delivery came the next day after ordering. Absolutely incredible results. Wall is back to the original bathstone colour and Indian sandstone paving stones are blackspot free. Have some great before/after photos which we’ve been sending out to all our family. Can recommend 100%. Many thanks.
Dilys Grindley –
We used this product this morning on our patio,the results were amazing.Flags returned to their original colour.
Very pleased.Next day delivery great.
Susan Reeve –
Haven’t used the item yet but if it’s as good as their customer service then I’ll be very pleased. Helpful staff and quick free delivery.
Steven H –
Totally transformed my Twenty year old Patio. I thought I would have one last try to remove the black spots before giving up and replacing the paving completely but thanks to this product My Patio looks great and it has saved me a fortune not having to buy a new one. Well worth the money because cheaper products simply didn’t work.
