Those Victorian terrace patios throughout Clapham have witnessed decades of British weather. Stone by stone, we breathe life back into tired outdoor spaces, revealing the character hidden beneath years of grime and moss.
Response within 24 hours
Clapham's period properties deserve outdoor spaces that match their charm. Whether your patio wraps around a converted flat near the Common or nestles in a compact SW11 garden, restoration brings back that 'just-laid' appearance without the upheaval of replacement. Algae-stained York stone, crumbling pointing between bricks, sunken slabs – each challenge has a solution.
Deep cleaning penetrates beyond surface dirt, extracting ingrained pollution from London's busy streets. Repointing stabilises movement while matching original mortar colours. Pressure levels adjust for delicate sandstone versus hardy granite, preserving surface textures. Finally, sealants protect against future staining whilst maintaining natural stone breathability.
Twenty years working across Stockwell to Battersea means knowing which restoration methods suit Clapham's mix of materials. Local knowledge matters when matching Victorian-era pointing or sourcing replacement slabs from reclamation yards.

A standard 20-30sqm Victorian patio restoration runs £800-£1,400, depending on pointing requirements and stone condition. Larger spaces around converted mansion blocks typically range £1,500-£2,500.
Absolutely – from Clapham Old Town through to Northcote Road, including all SW4 and SW11 postcodes. Regular work takes us across Clapham Common, down to Stockwell and throughout Battersea's residential streets.
Most Clapham patios complete within 2-3 days, weather permitting. Extensive repointing or levelling work might stretch to 4-5 days, particularly on larger period properties.
All restoration work carries decade-long protection against defects. This covers pointing integrity, sealant performance and cleaning results – essentially everything except natural weathering or accidental damage.
Indian sandstone responds brilliantly to specialist restoration. Iron oxide stains, oil marks and organic growth lift away with appropriate treatments. The key is identifying the stone type correctly – some Clapham patios feature multiple varieties requiring different approaches.
