Driveway Cleaning in Clapham that lifts grime, algae and oil without damaging your surface. We restore block paving, tarmac and resin driveways with professional pressure washing, re-sanding and sealing options.
Response within 24 hours
Clapham’s busy streets and leafy edges around Clapham Common can leave driveways looking tired fast. Our cleaning service removes slippery algae, moss and traffic film so your frontage looks sharp again. We work across SW4 and SW11, including Clapham North and Clapham Old Town. Expect a noticeable difference after a single half-day visit.
From Georgian townhouses near the Common to Victorian terraces and newer apartment developments closer to Clapham Junction station, surfaces vary widely. We tailor our approach to block paving, tarmac, concrete and resin-bound finishes. Older properties often have compacted joints and uneven levels, while modern driveways may need gentler pressure settings. That local experience helps us clean thoroughly while protecting the substrate.
We start with a site check, then apply targeted moss removal and weed treatment before pressure washing. Oil stain removal is tackled with specialist detergents and agitation, not just blasting with water. For block paving, we re-sand joints once dry and can apply a quality sealer for longer-lasting results. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, tidy work practices and clear aftercare guidance.
We regularly carry out driveway cleaning in the London Borough of Lambeth/Wandsworth, where mixed property ages and narrow access are common. In Clapham Park and Clapham South, we plan equipment and water use to suit tight front gardens and shared crossovers. We’re mindful of parking restrictions and keep hoses and walkways managed for neighbours and pedestrians. Different paving types also mean we adjust pressure, detergents and drying time accordingly.

For driveway cleaning Clapham area homeowners typically pay around £3–£8 per square metre, depending on surface type and how ingrained the staining is. Most jobs come out at roughly £150–£400 for an average-sized front drive. Extras such as oil stain treatment, re-sanding block paving joints, or sealing can increase the price, but they also extend the finish and reduce regrowth.
Most driveway cleans in Clapham take around half a day, including setup, pre-treatment and a thorough rinse. Time can increase if there’s heavy moss, deep oil staining, or lots of weeds in joints. Larger driveways, awkward access, or the need to re-sand and then seal block paving can also extend the visit or require a return once the surface is fully dry.
In most cases, driveway cleaning is permitted and doesn’t require planning permission in the London Borough of Lambeth or Wandsworth. The key considerations are safe working practices and responsible wastewater handling, especially where runoff could reach surface drains. If your property has specific restrictions (for example, listed status or special frontage requirements), we’ll flag it during the site check and adapt methods accordingly.
Yes. We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on applicable follow-on treatments we install, such as sealing systems, subject to correct curing conditions and normal wear. Cleaning results themselves vary with usage, shade and weather, but we guarantee a professional standard and will address any missed areas reported promptly. We also provide aftercare advice to help keep the surface cleaner for longer.
We clean and refresh block paving, tarmac, concrete and resin-bound driveways, adjusting pressure and detergents to suit each material. Popular finish options include re-sanding kiln-dried sand into block paving joints and applying a breathable sealer to enhance colour and reduce weed regrowth. If you’re unsure what you have, we’ll identify the surface on arrival and recommend the safest, best-value approach for your frontage.
