Oil and rust stains are some of the toughest blemishes to remove from concrete, pavers, and other outdoor surfaces. Whether caused by a leaky vehicle, irrigation system, or tools left out in the rain, these stains can be a real eyesore—and often resist traditional cleaning methods.
At SHV Pressure Washing, we specialize in professional oil and rust stain removal in Guilderland. Our proven cleaning techniques and powerful commercial-grade solutions break down and lift tough stains without damaging your surfaces.
Oil and rust stains are more than just ugly—they’re also damaging if left untreated.
Motor oil, transmission fluid, and grease seep deep into concrete and asphalt. Over time, they can weaken the surface, attract more dirt, and cause long-term staining. We use commercial degreasers and hot water pressure washing to break down and remove the oil fully—not just mask it.
Rust can appear from metal furniture, irrigation systems, or even battery acid. These orange and brown stains are highly acidic and difficult to clean without causing damage to the surface. Our rust removal process safely dissolves rust without etching or discoloring your concrete, siding, or pavers.
Our oil and rust stain removal services are ideal for:
Whether you’ve got one small stain or large areas that need attention, we’ve got the tools and experience to restore your surfaces safely and effectively.
We take a detailed, surface-safe approach to every job:
We identify the type of stain and surface to determine the best removal method. We also take steps to protect nearby landscaping or features.
For oil stains, we apply industrial-grade degreasers to break down petroleum and hydrocarbon-based contaminants. For rust, we use a professional rust remover specifically designed for use on concrete, siding, and pavers.
Our hot water pressure washers break down and lift oil from deep within the surface’s pores. The high temperature combined with targeted pressure ensures a deep, even clean.
We thoroughly rinse the area and inspect the surface. Most oil and rust stains are removed on the first pass—any remaining discoloration is treated again for complete removal.
You don’t have to live with unsightly oil and rust stains. Let SHV Pressure Washing restore your concrete, pavers, and siding with our professional stain removal services.

Guilderland, a vibrant suburban town west of Albany, blends historic charm with modern suburban appeal. Named for the Dutch province of Gelderland, it was settled in the 17th century as a farming community, with remnants of its past preserved at sites like the Mynderse-Frederick House, a historic landmark. Today, Guilderland’s economy thrives on its commercial corridors, notably Crossgates Mall, a regional retail powerhouse drawing shoppers from across the Capital Region. The town also benefits from proximity to Albany’s government, healthcare, and tech sectors, making it a commuter haven. The Guilderland Central School District is a draw for families, known for academic excellence and robust arts and athletics programs. Housing options range from cozy mid-century homes to spacious new developments, with median prices reflecting the town’s desirability. Recreation is a cornerstone, with Tawasentha Park offering trails, a pool, and summer concerts, while the nearby Pine Bush Preserve provides unique ecosystems for hiking and nature study. Guilderland’s dining scene is diverse, from the cozy Capital City Diner to upscale eateries like Athos Restaurant, catering to varied tastes. Community events, such as the Guilderland Farmers Market and annual Fourth of July festivities, foster local pride. While traffic along Western Avenue can be a challenge, the town invests in infrastructure to ease congestion. Guilderland’s location near I-90 and I-87 ensures seamless access to Albany, Schenectady, and beyond, appealing to professionals and families alike. Cultural attractions, like the Guilderland Public Library’s community programs and nearby Altamont Fair, enrich the area. The town’s low crime rate and ample green spaces, including Western Turnpike Golf Course, enhance its livability. Guilderland faces the balancing act of growth versus preservation, particularly in protecting the Pine Bush, but its commitment to sustainability shines through. With a welcoming vibe and access to both urban amenities and natural beauty, like the nearby Helderberg Escarpment, Guilderland offers a high quality of life for residents seeking suburban comfort with a touch of history in the Capital Region.
