From Dulwich Park to the streets around Dulwich Village, outdoor surfaces pick up algae, tyre marks and general urban grime. Our jet washing service refreshes driveways, patios, paths and walls without unnecessary disruption. We’re equipped for everything from small courtyards to wider front drives. If you’re in SE21, SE22 or SE24, we can usually get to you quickly.
Dulwich is known for outstanding period architecture, and many homes here are Georgian and Victorian houses as well as large detached properties. These surfaces often include original brickwork, York stone, setts, and older concrete that needs a measured approach. We adjust pressure, nozzles and detergents to suit the material, not just the mess. That’s why homeowners across East Dulwich and West Dulwich choose a specialist rather than a one-setting wash.
We start with an inspection, then pre-treat problem areas such as lichen, black spot and oil staining. Next, we use controlled pressure washing with surface cleaners where appropriate to prevent streaking and etching. Rinsing, tidy-up and optional re-sanding for block paving can be included to finish the job properly. Fine Landscaping is based in Norbury, around 20 minutes away, so you get responsive local service and consistent standards.
We regularly carry out jet washing in London Borough of Southwark, where access and parking can vary street by street. Dulwich properties often have narrow side returns, shared drives and mature planting that needs protection from overspray. We use splash control, careful run-off management and tidy cable/hosing routes to keep entrances safe. If restrictions apply near schools or busier roads, we plan timings to minimise disruption.

Most jet washing in the Dulwich area is priced by size and surface type, typically £2–£6 per square metre. As a guide, many homeowners spend around £100–£350 for a driveway, patio or combined front area. Heavily soiled surfaces, oil staining, lots of edging detail, or careful low-pressure work on older stone can increase the cost. We’ll confirm a range after a quick look at photos or a site visit.
Most jobs take 2–6 hours, depending on the area, the level of staining and the surface material. A small patio or path may be completed in a couple of hours, while larger driveways or multiple areas (patio plus walls and fences) take longer. Pre-treatment dwell time for algae and black spot, careful work around planting, and optional block paving re-sanding can also extend the schedule. We’ll give a realistic time window before we start.
In most cases, jet washing driveways, patios and garden paths is classed as routine maintenance and doesn’t require planning permission. However, there can be considerations around run-off to drains, noise at certain times, and working on shared access ways. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, extra care may be sensible for sensitive materials. We’ll flag any likely issues and work in a way that respects local rules and neighbours.
Yes. Our work is backed by a 10-year warranty for workmanship on the landscaping services we carry out, and we apply the same quality standards to jet washing. The warranty covers issues caused by our workmanship, such as avoidable damage from incorrect technique. It doesn’t cover normal re-soiling over time, existing weak pointing, or pre-existing surface defects. We always assess condition first and use the safest effective pressure for the material.
We clean a wide range of outdoor surfaces, including block paving, concrete, natural stone, porcelain paving, timber decking, brick walls, fences and garden paths. Options can include pre-treatment for algae and black spot, targeted degreasing for oil marks, and re-sanding for block paving once dry. We’ll advise on the safest approach for older stone and period brickwork, and recommend aftercare such as sealing where it’s appropriate for your surface.
