PATIO CLEANING / LONDON

Patio Cleaning in London

We wash patio paving to remove built-up dirt and surface deposits. We check the paving material, clean the areas you book and look over the remaining marks with you, including any damaged paving that needs separate repair.

Paved areas to washWe price washing the outdoor hard surfaces you need cleaned. Give the patio dimensions and include any steps, paths or separate paved sections. Photographs help us see the condition and deposits across the area before we confirm the total.
Repairs and finishingRepointing, re-sanding, sealing and repairs are separate from washing the paving. Tell us about damaged joints or loose paving beforehand. We can discuss the cleaning around those areas without including a new surface finish or repairs in the patio-washing price.
Final totalWe confirm the area, the patio cleaning included and the booking total before the visit, including any applicable minimum. Let us know about additional paths or steps so they can be included when we price the outdoor space.

PATIO WASHING

The paving, edges and outdoor areas we clean

Checking the paving and cleaning its exposed surface
TaskOur work
Your patio surfaceWe look at the paving material, its condition and where dirt has collected. Photographs and dimensions show the size of the patio and the edges or separate sections needing attention, including any part hidden behind furniture.
Surface washWe wash the paved surfaces included in your booking, working on accumulated dirt and surface deposits. We take account of the paving finish and existing damage, with the clear areas and the edges you need cleaned listed together.
Final checkWe look over the washed paving and discuss marks that remain. You can point out the position of a concern across the patio, path or steps. Damaged paving or worn joints may need separate attention after the cleaning.

Part of the patioOur cleaning work
Paving material and conditionWe check the surface before washing, including the material, finish and visible damage. Dirt across sound paving and a mark beside a damaged joint need different attention. Show any care information you have for the paving, together with photographs of the deposits and the surrounding surface, so we can discuss cleaning it.
The measured areaWe include the paved sections you need washed, with their dimensions checked when pricing. Add a connecting path, steps or a separate sitting area if these also need cleaning. The area list helps us work on the whole outdoor section you have booked, rather than only the paving nearest the door.
Furniture and practical accessWe clean the exposed paving around items that will stay, with any movement discussed beforehand. Tell us about tables, planters or other belongings covering the surface and which ones will be cleared. Show narrow entrances and nearby structures as well, so we know how to reach the patio and its edges.
Finishing work is separateWe wash dirt and deposits from the paving; repointing, re-sanding, sealing or repairing it needs separate agreement. A cleaned patio can still have worn joints or damaged slabs. We discuss these existing issues when looking over the area, so you can separate the washing from any finishing work needed afterwards.

WORK ON THE PAVING

How we clean a patio

Patio Cleaning — surface detail
Surface checks, washing and the cleaned outdoor area
StageWhat we do
Looking at the dirtWe look across the paving and at the deposits you need removed. A wider photograph shows how dirt is spread over the patio, while a close-up explains a particular mark. We discuss both with the paving material, so attention is given to the surrounding surface as well as the darkest patch.
Clear sections and edgesWe check which sections are exposed and where furniture or stored items still cover the paving. The patio edges are included in the discussion, along with any path or steps you have added. This gives us a clear picture of the outdoor surfaces to wash on the day.
Checking the pavingWe take account of the paving material and existing condition before cleaning. Tell us about loose pieces, damaged joints or a delicate finish. Washing is discussed for the surface as it stands, with repair needs kept separate from the dirt-removal work.
Washing the surfaceWe wash the suitable paved areas booked for cleaning, removing accumulated surface dirt and deposits. A patio with several sections is treated as the list of areas you have included, with attention to the edges and connecting paving that can be reached.
Persistent marksWe look at marks that remain after washing and explain where further attention may be needed. A discoloured or damaged piece of paving may still look different from the adjoining surface. We discuss that difference directly, without adding a repair or sealing treatment to the cleaning visit.
Joints and damaged areasWe take care around the condition of the paving and joints already present. Show any crack, loose section or previous repair before cleaning. Removing the dirt does not replace lost joint material or mend a damaged slab, so those parts may still need separate work afterwards.
Looking over the patioWe review the washed sections with the area list for your patio. You can point out a remaining patch by its position near a step, edge or path. We discuss any section that stayed covered or could not be reached, along with the paving that has been cleaned.

GETTING READY

Before your patio cleaning visit

Measurements, photographs and space to reach the paving
Before we arriveDetails to share
Dimensions and paving typeSend the patio measurements and tell us the paving type if you know it. Include the dimensions of separate paths, steps or other paved sections needing washing. If measurements are approximate, say so and send a wider photograph to show the shape of the area.
Deposits and existing damagePhotograph the patio as a whole and add close-ups of the marks that concern you. Show cracked paving, damaged joints or a previous repair too. Any care instructions for the material are useful before we discuss washing the dirt from its surface.
Gates and furnitureExplain how to reach the patio and who will open any locked gate. Tell us which furniture or planters will stay on the paving and which will be cleared beforehand. A photograph of a narrow passage helps show the way into the garden.
Your preferred dateGive your preferred date when enquiring and tell us about any time you need the outside area available again. We confirm the appointment before arriving. If another person opens the gate or provides entry through the house, include their availability when arranging the visit.
Adding another paved areaLet us know before the visit if you add a path, steps or another section of paving. Send updated dimensions and photos where possible. We can then discuss the additional washing and the total, including any change to reaching the patio or clearing it.

OUTDOOR AREAS TO INCLUDE

Your patio
and connecting paving

Patio Cleaning — property and access
Patio sections, steps, paths and paving around furniture
Area to washCleaning to discuss
One patio sectionWe can discuss cleaning a particular paved sitting area or patio section. Give its dimensions and show its material and condition, including the edges and any furniture covering it. We wash the area listed for that visit and discuss stubborn marks afterwards, with repairs or finishing treatments priced separately if needed.
Patio, path and stepsWe can include steps, a connecting path or separate paved sections when you list them with the patio. Show each area and mention different materials or damaged parts. We discuss the washing across those outdoor sections together, so the area-based price includes the paving you need rather than just the space by the door.
Paving with items stayingWe discuss the clear paving around furniture, planters or other items that remain. Show their position and say what will be moved before cleaning. This lets us explain which sections can be washed and which stay covered, while keeping any heavy-item movement, repairs or finishing work separate from the patio clean.

SERVICE QUESTIONS

Patio cleaning questions

Paving, furniture and remaining marks
QuestionAnswer
Do you need to know the paving material before washing my patio?Yes. Tell us the material if known and send photographs of the surface. A finish, existing damage or care instruction can affect the cleaning, so these details help us discuss the patio before giving a price.
Can I include the steps and garden path with the patio?List each area and send its measurements and photographs when enquiring. We can discuss the washing together and confirm which sections are included. Mention any different paving or damage on the steps and path.
What if a heavy planter has to stay on the paving?Show where it stands before booking and tell us it will remain there. We can discuss cleaning the exposed paving around it; the covered surface cannot be washed while the planter stays in that position.
Will patio washing also seal the paving afterwards?Sealing is separate from patio washing and needs its own discussion. The cleaning price does not include applying a new finish, re-sanding or repointing the joints unless that additional work has been arranged separately.
Can a mark remain after the patio has been washed?Some marks can remain, particularly where the paving is damaged or discoloured. Point out the patch when looking over the cleaned area so we can discuss it directly and separate any repair need from the washing.
Should I show a loose slab before arranging patio cleaning?Yes. Send a picture of the loose or damaged area before the visit. We take existing paving condition into account when discussing cleaning; fixing slabs or repairing joints is a separate job from removing dirt.
