A WOMAN has shared how she gets her patio sparkling, leaving many open-mouthed.
A traveller named Pashy, 42, who is known online as ‘Gypsy Queen Pashy’, has revealed her top tips for getting a grubby patio sparkling.
According to this cleaning fanatic, who recently opened up on facing discrimination in her community, there’s a 55p buy from Tesco that will do just the trick.
And while it’ll take a bit of elbow grease, you won’t need to invest in a pricey jet washer, making this hack super affordable.
Posting on social media, Pashy shared her advice – and according to her, you’ll only need three things – bleach, a washing-up bowl and a scrubbing brush.
As she knelt on her patio, the mother said: “I’m on my hands and knees outside scrubbing the pavement because I don’t have a jet wash.
“I’m getting all the green up – I always do things by hand, it comes up better.
“Every day, I get out here with a bit of disinfectant and a bit of bleach, because my boy plays out here.
“I’ve put a bit of bleach down to kill the germs.”
Pashy simply poured bleach onto the patio, and used her scrubbing brush to clean it.
If you fancy giving this a try, you can buy extra thick bleach, which you can nab from Tesco, for as little as 55p.
Pashy then used her hose to wash down the pavement, as she explained: “The thing is, some people don’t have money for jet washers, with the price of everything going up.
“So if you can save money and do it all on your hands and knees, wouldn’t you prefer doing that?”
As the hose washed off the bleach, Pashy added: “Look at all the green coming up.

ALGAE: If your fence is covered in stubborn algae, Mrs Hinch fans swore by white vinegar to get it looking brand new.
MOSS: If moss is causing you problems, soda crystals will do just the trick.
PATIO: IF your patio slabs have seen better days, bleach could be just the thing for you.
“Things like this, you can do by hand. The old ways are the best ways. That’s why I always say it comes up handsome.”
Pashy explained that she was always brought up to clean, as she continued: “Today, girls don’t want to get their nails broken, but I was brought up the hard way, but I’d rather do it this way.

“There’s always something to do in my home. I bleach the kitchen twice a day, I clean my floors twice a day, morning and night.”
As she proudly showed off her clean patio, Pashy concluded: “It comes up much better.
Here are some tips to help you clean your home like a pro:
“All you need is a bit of bleach and a scrubbing brush. How much does that cost? 70p?
“How much does a jet wash cost? A couple hundred quid for a cheap one?”
