If your lawn is looking flat, patchy or smells after rain, our specialist cleaning service restores it without harsh disruption. We work across Elephant & Castle, including near Elephant Park and the Strata Tower, where high footfall and shaded corners can encourage algae. From quick refreshes to full deep cleans, we tailor the treatment to your turf and how it’s used. The result is cleaner, brighter grass that feels better underfoot.
Elephant & Castle’s mix of modern high-rises, Victorian terraces and new-build apartments means artificial lawns often sit in courtyards, roof terraces and compact gardens. In Walworth and Kennington, we regularly see turf affected by urban dust, leaf litter and pet use. Around SE17, enclosed spaces can stay damp, leading to moss build-up and slippery fibres. We bring the right equipment for tight access, shared entrances and timed slots.
Our process combines deep cleaning, moss & algae removal, stain removal and targeted pet odour treatment, followed by antibacterial treatment for added hygiene. We then carry out pile restoration and, where needed, an infill top-up to improve drainage and bounce. You’ll get clear aftercare advice and optional annual maintenance to keep things consistent year-round. Homeowners choose Fine Landscaping for careful workmanship, tidy visits and reliable scheduling from our Norbury base (around 25 minutes away).
In the London Borough of Southwark, regeneration sites and busy roads can mean more dust and debris settling into turf. Many homes near Elephant & Castle Shopping Centre have limited parking and shared access, so we plan loading, equipment choice and timings to minimise inconvenience. Shaded courtyards and north-facing terraces can stay damp, increasing algae risk, so we adjust products and drying time accordingly. We also work carefully around drainage channels common in newer developments.




Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs in Elephant & Castle typically range from £90–£180 for small areas such as balconies or compact courtyards, and £180–£350 for average gardens. Larger lawns or heavily soiled turf (moss, algae, stains, or strong pet odours) can be £350–£650+. Price depends on square metres, access, level of contamination, whether infill top-up is needed, and any optional annual maintenance plan.
Most jobs take 1–3 hours for small to medium areas, while larger gardens or intensive treatments can take 3–6 hours. Timescales depend on the amount of moss/algae, staining, pet odour treatment requirements, and whether we’re also completing pile restoration and an infill top-up. Access also matters in Elephant & Castle flats where equipment may need to be carried through communal areas or up lifts.
Artificial grass cleaning is classed as maintenance, so planning permission is not normally required in the London Borough of Southwark. We still work responsibly: we protect nearby planting, manage run-off, and use appropriate products for domestic settings. If your property has specific management-company rules (common in new-build apartments) or you’re in a conservation area, we’ll help you check any site guidelines before booking.
Yes. If Fine Landscaping supplied and installed your artificial lawn, it comes with a 10-year warranty covering installation-related issues such as lifting edges or joint separation (subject to normal use and correct care). Cleaning itself is a maintenance service, so results depend on existing wear, drainage and contamination levels, but we stand by our workmanship. We’ll also advise on aftercare to keep the lawn fresher for longer.
For Elephant & Castle homes, popular options include softer, child-friendly piles for family gardens, shorter piles for balconies and roof terraces, and denser, hard-wearing turf for pets. We can advise on pile height, face weight, drainage rate and infill type to suit your space. If you’re upgrading, we’ll help choose edging details, curves around planters, and practical solutions for shaded courtyards common in SE1 and SE17.
