Crystal Palace driveways take a battering from leaf fall, traffic film and damp shade—especially around Gipsy Hill and Anerley. Our team cleans and revives tired paving without the harsh, patchy finish you can get from DIY jet washing. We’re regularly working near Crystal Palace Park and the National Sports Centre, so we understand the local mix of slopes, steps and shared access. Expect a noticeably brighter driveway and improved grip underfoot.
Homes across SE19 and SE20 often have period frontage details, with Victorian villas, Edwardian houses and conversions where the driveway is part of the property’s character. We tailor the approach to the surface—block paving, resin-bound, natural stone or tarmac—so joints, edges and drainage channels are treated properly. If your drive sits under trees or in a shaded dip, we’ll prioritise moss removal and a suitable treatment to slow regrowth. For parking bays and forecourts, we focus on even cleaning with minimal disruption.
Our process starts with a site check, then controlled pressure washing to remove embedded grime, followed by targeted moss removal and weed treatment. For oil stain removal we use specialist products designed for hardstanding, then rinse thoroughly. On block paving we can re-sand joints and, where appropriate, apply a sealant to help resist staining and algae. Homeowners choose us for clear pricing, careful surface handling, and a tidy finish with no mess left behind.
Crystal Palace spans boundaries, so we’re used to working across driveway cleaning in London Borough of Bromley/Croydon/Lambeth/Southwark/Lewisham with differing parking controls and access quirks. Hilltop gradients and older drainage runs mean we manage water flow carefully and avoid washing debris into gullies. Many properties have narrow frontages and shared paths, so we plan equipment placement and protect neighbouring areas. Our driveway cleaning Crystal Palace area service is designed to suit period homes and busy residential streets.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most driveway cleaning in Crystal Palace is priced by area and surface type, typically £3–£8 per square metre. As a guide, many homeowners pay around £150–£400 for a standard front drive, depending on size, level of soiling, and whether you add extras like oil stain removal, re-sanding for block paving, or sealing. We’ll confirm the most suitable approach after a quick assessment.
Most jobs take around half a day, which suits typical front driveways in SE19 and SE20. Timing depends on the driveway size, the amount of moss or lichen, and whether we’re doing oil stain treatment, re-sanding, or applying sealant. Shaded drives near trees can take longer due to heavier growth and extra rinsing. We’ll give you a realistic time window before we start.
Driveway cleaning is usually classed as routine maintenance, so planning permission isn’t normally required. However, local rules can still affect practicalities such as parking suspensions, noise expectations, and how wastewater should be managed, especially across the Bromley/Croydon/Lambeth/Southwark/Lewisham borders. We work with controlled runoff and keep the area tidy. If there are site-specific restrictions, we’ll flag them before booking.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on sealing works where we’ve prepared the surface correctly and applied the recommended sealant system. It covers issues such as premature sealant failure under normal domestic use, subject to basic care guidance. Cleaning results will naturally vary with weather and shade, but we aim for a consistent finish and will address any missed areas reported promptly after the job.
We clean and refresh block paving, tarmac, concrete, natural stone and many resin-bound surfaces, choosing the right pressure and detergents for each. Popular add-ons include re-sanding for block paving joints and sealing for a richer colour and improved resistance to algae and staining. If you’re unsure what your driveway is made from, we’ll identify it on site and recommend the safest, best-value finish for your home.
