Brixton’s busy streets and leafy pockets can leave driveways looking tired fast, especially after wet spells and heavy footfall. We clean block paving, concrete and resin surfaces with professional pressure washing and targeted treatments. Whether you’re near Windrush Square or heading up towards Brixton Hill, we’ll remove moss, weeds and embedded dirt safely. The result is a brighter entrance that looks cared-for again.
Homes across SW2 and SW9 range from Victorian terraces with narrow front gardens to modern developments with shared access and parking bays. These different layouts affect drainage, staining and how we manage run-off during cleaning. We’re used to block paving that needs re-sanding, as well as concrete drives that show tyre marks and oil drips. Our approach is tailored to the surface and the age of the driveway, not a one-size-fits-all blast.
We start with an inspection, then apply moss removal and weed treatment where needed before controlled pressure washing. Oil stain removal is tackled with specialist products, followed by a thorough rinse and tidy-up. For block paving, we re-sand once fully dry and can apply sealing to help resist future staining. Local homeowners choose us for careful workmanship, clear communication and dependable results, with a 10-year warranty available on qualifying sealing and restoration work.
In the London Borough of Lambeth, many driveways sit close to the pavement with limited space for equipment and run-off control. We plan around parking restrictions and access, especially on busier routes near Electric Avenue and Stockwell. Brixton’s mix of older paving and newer surfacing means pressure levels and detergents must be chosen carefully. We also factor in shaded areas that encourage moss growth and adjust treatments accordingly.

Most driveway cleaning in Brixton is priced at around £3–£8 per square metre, depending on the surface type and how heavily it’s stained. Typical total costs often fall between £150 and £400 for an average domestic driveway. Oil stain removal, weed treatment, re-sanding for block paving and optional sealing can affect the final figure. We’ll confirm the best approach after a quick site check.
Most jobs take around half a day, which suits many Brixton properties with limited off-street space. Timing depends on the driveway size, the amount of moss and weeds present, and whether we’re doing oil stain treatment. If re-sanding is needed, the paving must be dry enough before kiln-dried sand is applied, which can extend the visit or require a return trip. Sealing also adds drying time.
Driveway cleaning is usually permitted and doesn’t require planning permission, as it’s maintenance rather than construction. However, in the London Borough of Lambeth you may need to be mindful of run-off, noise, and keeping pavements clear, especially on busy streets. If you’re in a managed development or have specific site rules, we’ll work within them. We also take care to control water and debris responsibly.
Yes. Where we carry out qualifying restoration work such as re-sanding and sealing, Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on the applied sealant system and workmanship, subject to correct aftercare and normal wear. Cleaning results can vary depending on the type of staining and the driveway’s condition, but we always aim for the best achievable finish. We’ll explain what’s realistic before starting and how to maintain it.
After cleaning, we can tailor the finish to your driveway material. For block paving, re-sanding is recommended and we can apply a matt or satin seal to help lock in the sand and reduce weed growth. For concrete, we can advise on stain-resistant sealing where suitable. Resin-bound and tarmac surfaces need gentler methods and compatible products. We’ll recommend options based on appearance, slip resistance and maintenance needs.
