Balham gardens work hard, especially around Balham High Road and the busy routes to Balham station. Mud, leaf litter and airborne grime can compact the pile and dull the colour, while shaded corners encourage moss and algae. Our cleaning service restores appearance and drainage, making your lawn feel like new again. We also tackle stains and lingering smells so the space stays pleasant year-round.
From Victorian terraces on Balham Hill to Edwardian houses near Nightingale and mansion conversions off Bedford Hill, many homes have compact rear gardens where every square metre counts. Artificial turf is popular for family play areas and low-maintenance courtyards, but it still needs periodic care. We’re based just 15 minutes away, so you get responsive scheduling and local know-how. Regular upkeep helps protect the backing, seams and infill from premature wear.
We start with a thorough inspection, then remove debris, treat moss and algae, and carry out a deep clean with specialist equipment. Pet odour treatment and an antibacterial rinse are applied where needed, followed by pile restoration and an infill top-up to improve cushioning and stability. We work neatly, protect borders and paving, and leave the area ready to use. Homeowners choose Fine Landscaping for consistent results, clear advice and an annual maintenance option to keep standards high.
Balham’s mix of shaded gardens and high footfall can encourage algae and compacted pile, especially after wet spells. We plan visits with SW12 access in mind, including narrow side returns and shared pathways common in period terraces. Where parking is limited near Tooting Bec Common and key routes, we arrive with efficient kit and minimise time on-site. Our methods suit small courtyards and larger family lawns alike, with tidy edges and careful rinsing.

Pricing in SW12 usually depends on lawn size, contamination level and whether you need extras like pet odour treatment, stain removal or an infill top-up. As a guide, small areas often start around £90–£140, medium gardens commonly fall between £150–£250, and larger lawns can be £260–£450+. Annual maintenance visits are typically lower per visit than one-off restorative cleans.
Most jobs take 1–3 hours, with larger or heavily soiled lawns taking half a day. Time depends on access, amount of debris, moss/algae coverage, and whether we’re carrying out pile restoration, stain removal and infill top-up. Pet areas can add time because treatments need proper dwell time to neutralise odours. We’ll confirm an estimated duration after a quick assessment or photos.
Artificial grass cleaning is maintenance work and doesn’t normally require planning permission or council approval in the London Borough of Wandsworth. That said, if you live in a listed building, a managed mansion conversion, or have specific leasehold rules about contractors, there may be site requirements or access restrictions. We’re happy to check any building management guidance and work within agreed hours and noise limits.
