"Hi Sharon,
The best and only way to clean a tarmac drive is by using some products that are available just google tarmac cleaning product I believe B&Q do one off the shelf also in conjunction with a jet wash and even a good stiff brush for the awkward bits…
Hope this is of some help to you .

Regards,

Michael"
