That tired patio behind your Victorian terrace deserves better than moss and cracked pointing. Lewisham's weather hasn't been kind to outdoor surfaces, but restoration can bring back that fresh-laid finish without the upheaval of complete replacement.

Patios take a beating in SE13. Between the London rain and those surprisingly harsh frosts, even quality stonework starts showing its age after a decade or two. Rather than ripping everything up and starting again, restoration tackles the actual problems - repointing gaps, lifting stains, and stabilising movement. Most Lewisham gardens see dramatic improvement with the right treatment approach.
The restoration process adapts to each surface type. Natural stone requires gentle cleaning methods to avoid etching, whilst concrete benefits from pressure washing and resealing. Joints get raked out and refilled with flexible compounds that handle seasonal movement. Subsidence issues, common in areas near the old Lewisham Hospital grounds, need addressing before any cosmetic work begins.
Twenty years working on patios from Catford to Blackheath means recognising problems before they escalate. Local knowledge matters when dealing with London clay and century-old drainage systems.
