It’s been a gruelling winter, but with spring gradually approaching on the horizon, gardening enthusiasts who are desperate to venture outdoors again are beginning to consider brightening up their spaces. A troublesome issue that plagues numerous properties throughout the dreary UK winter period is moss and algae developing on surfaces like fencing and patios.
It’s typically especially severe in spots that receive limited sunlight, resulting in an unattractive, hazardous green film. Whilst a pressure washer is commonly the preferred solution for tackling such problems, they’re usually rather expensive to purchase, and operating one creates quite a lot of mess.
That’s why certain gardeners are exploring alternative remedies, such as Patio Magic – a fungicidal treatment engineered to eliminate green moss and algae with “long lasting results”. It contains no bleach or acid and requires approximately three days to take effect.

One delighted customer said: “After trying many different makes to clean patio slabs, I have found one that works brilliantly. Used a watering can and spread it as evenly as I could. Didn’t seem to do much at first, but a few hours later moss and grime was definitely disappearing. Ended up looking good next morning. It’s good to find something that actually does what it says. Will be using again next year’s spring clean up. Highly recommend this product.”
Another raved: “I bought this patio cleaner a couple of weeks ago so I’ve had time to evaluate it – sprayed our front path which is just rough concrete outside our front door and always goes green in the winter as it gets no direct sunlight, within a couple of days the green had completely gone. We have used this product before, normally buy smaller containers, so this 5ltr will last a long time and works out cheaper in the long run – highly recommended.”
A third customer enthused: “I really enjoyed using this product. My patio came up really nice. I would buy this again. My neighbours asked which product I was using and now they use this as well.”
Meanwhile, a fourth chimed in: “Used product on old tiles and they have come up like new.” However, despite the glowing feedback, some users did voice minor concerns.
One purchaser mentioned: “I will have to use it again after couple of weeks as first time it didn’t clear the algae completely. But still happy with the results I achieved for the first time.” Another shopper commented: “Good but could be better.”
There are plenty of comparable products available at other stockists as well, including on Amazon where a 5L bottle of Green Growth Remover comes with a modest reduction, bringing the cost down from £19.95 to £16.96. That’ll tackle roughly 125m2 and is claimed to deliver results within 5 days.
Alternatively, for those after immediate outcomes, a pressure washer could be the best bet. Argos has a wallet-friendly choice with the McGregor Pressure Washer – 1400W, that’s priced at £80. It can pump out 306 litres of water at 75bar per hour and comes with a 5m cable, plus a 3m hose.
