Slippery algae and black spotting are common on patios around SW15, especially after damp spells near the River Thames towpath. Our team delivers a thorough clean that brings colour back to sandstone, concrete and block paving without leaving mess behind. Whether you’re off Putney High Street or closer to Putney Bridge, we’ll remove grime, weeds and surface staining. The result is a patio that looks sharper and feels safer underfoot.
Putney’s mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, plus modern riverside apartments, means patios vary from small courtyards to larger family terraces. We’re used to working with older pointing, delicate flags and uneven levels where water sits and algae returns quickly. For homes in West Putney and East Putney, we tailor pressure and detergents to the paving type and condition. That local know-how helps prevent etching, loose joints and patchy results.
We start with an inspection, then apply targeted stain treatment and algae removal before high pressure cleaning. If joints are failing, we can re-point for a neater finish and better weed resistance, then apply sealant where suitable to slow future staining. Most jobs take a half day, with careful protection of borders, drains and nearby planting. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, clear communication and a finish built to last.
Working across the London Borough of Wandsworth, we plan around Putney’s parking controls and access to rear gardens, especially on Victorian terraces. Riverside moisture and shaded sections near boundary walls can encourage algae, so we use appropriate biocides and dwell times. We also manage run-off carefully to avoid flooding gullies and to keep paths clean for neighbours. For patio cleaning Putney area homes, we match pressure settings to the stone and joint condition.

In Putney, patio cleaning typically ranges from £3–£8 per square metre, depending on the paving type, level of soiling and whether stains need specialist treatment. Most homeowners spend around £150–£400 for a standard patio clean. Costs can rise if re-pointing is required, if access is difficult, or if you choose sealant application for longer-lasting protection.
Most patio cleaning jobs in SW15 take around half a day, including set-up, pre-treatment, pressure washing and a final rinse-down. Time can vary with patio size, heavy algae growth, stubborn oil or rust stains, and whether re-pointing is needed after cleaning. Drying time for sealant is additional, and we’ll advise on when the area can be walked on and when furniture can go back.
Patio cleaning is usually permitted and doesn’t require planning permission, as it’s maintenance rather than construction. However, we still work responsibly: managing water run-off, avoiding blocked drains, and keeping pavements tidy if equipment is brought through front access. If your property has specific leasehold rules (common with riverside apartments) or shared access arrangements, we’ll help you check requirements before we start.
Yes. We back our work with a 10-year warranty on workmanship for restoration elements we carry out, such as re-pointing and related patio restoration tasks, when maintained as advised. Cleaning results naturally depend on weather, shade and foot traffic, but we use proven treatments to reduce rapid regrowth. If you notice an issue linked to our workmanship, we’ll inspect and put it right in line with the warranty terms.
We clean and restore most common patio surfaces, including sandstone, limestone, porcelain, concrete slabs and block paving.

If you’re unsure what you have, we’ll identify the material, test a small area, and recommend the safest approach for your patio cleaning in London Borough of Wandsworth.
