Patios in Bromley quickly pick up algae and black spotting, especially in shaded gardens and around planting beds. Our team cleans and restores paving so it looks brighter, feels safer underfoot, and is ready for entertaining. We regularly work near Bromley South station and around BR1 and BR2. If your slabs are slippery or patchy, we’ll bring them back without harsh shortcuts.
The London Borough of Bromley has a mix of large detached homes, Victorian villas and modern developments, and each patio surface responds differently. We clean natural stone, concrete flags and block paving with pressure and detergents matched to the material. In areas such as Shortlands and Bickley, we often see older patios with tired joints and ingrained staining from trees. Our approach protects edges, pointing and nearby borders while delivering a crisp finish.
We start with an assessment, then carry out high pressure cleaning with controlled settings and effective algae removal. Stubborn marks get targeted stain treatment, and we can re-point where joints have failed to stop weeds returning quickly. Finally, sealant application is available to help repel dirt and reduce future staining. Homeowners choose us for consistent results, clear pricing, and careful site tidy-up before we leave.
Bromley gardens often combine shaded corners, mature trees and mixed paving materials, which can accelerate algae growth and staining. We plan for access and parking on residential roads, and we use splash-control measures to protect walls, doors and planting. For properties in BR1/BR2 with older pointing, we’ll recommend re-pointing before sealing to avoid trapping moisture. Our methods suit everything from Victorian villa terraces to newer patios in modern developments.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most jobs in the Bromley area fall between £3–£8 per square metre, depending on the surface type and how ingrained the algae and staining are. Typical total costs are around £150–£400 for a family-sized patio. Extras such as re-pointing, specialist stain treatment or sealant application can increase the price, but they often improve the finish and reduce maintenance afterwards.
A standard patio clean is usually completed in half a day, including set-up, cleaning and a thorough rinse-down. Larger patios, heavy black-spotting, or lots of furniture to move can extend the visit. If re-pointing is needed, allow extra time for joint preparation and curing. Sealant application may also add time, as the surface needs to be suitably dry before sealing for best results.
Patio cleaning is generally classed as maintenance, so planning permission is rarely required in the London Borough of Bromley. The main considerations are practical: water run-off, noise at reasonable hours, and protecting neighbouring boundaries. If your property is listed or in a conservation area and you’re also planning repairs or changes to the patio, we can flag potential restrictions and advise what to check before work starts.
Yes. We stand by our workmanship and provide a 10-year warranty on relevant restoration elements we carry out, such as re-pointing and associated installation-quality work. Cleaning results can vary with weather, shade and ongoing organic growth, but we use proven products and methods to maximise longevity. We’ll also give aftercare guidance, including how to reduce algae return and when a light maintenance clean is worthwhile.
We work with common patio materials including sandstone, limestone, porcelain, concrete flags and block paving. Finish options range from a straightforward deep clean to full patio restoration with re-pointing and sealant application. Sealers can be chosen for a natural look or enhanced colour, depending on the paving and your preference. We’ll recommend the best approach based on slip risk, staining, drainage and how you use the space.
