Insured and documented
Wastewater containing detergent or biocide is contained and directed away from surface water drains during the clean, in line with water company trade effluent guidance, rather than allowed to run off into the road gutter.

Overview
Driveway cleaning in Nunhead SE15, explained
This page prices driveway cleaning for Nunhead SE15 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 20% privately rented and 7,127 households in total. Work starts at £120, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Southwark permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How driveway cleaning works in Nunhead
Five steps, the same on every SE15 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — which is why London Borough of Southwark kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Tell us the surface and the size
Tarmac, block paving, resin-bound or imprinted concrete, and roughly how many square metres — that sets both the pressure setting and the price.
Step 2
Fixed written quote
Cleaning, any re-sanding or resealing and the tip fee for spent sand are shown as separate lines rather than folded into one number.
Step 3
Pre-treat weeds and moss
A biocide is applied to joints and shaded corners before washing, because pressure alone leaves roots behind that regrow within weeks.
Step 4
Wash at the right pressure
Hot water for tarmac and concrete; a stepped-down pressure and softer head for block paving, resin-bound and imprinted surfaces.
Step 5
Resand and reseal where needed
Kiln-dried sand is brushed and vibrated into block paving joints once dry; sealant is reapplied on resin-bound and imprinted concrete driveways that include it.
Why choose us
Why Nunhead customers book us
What follows is specific to Nunhead: its walls, its access and the paperwork Southwark agents ask for.
Crew sized to the job
One technician and a van-mounted hot-water pressure washer for most driveways; two on larger block-paving jobs where re-sanding is included, since brushing sand in is a second task run alongside the wash. Steep hill streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station.
Booked around your day
Same-week across every borough, with the pressure and nozzle setting confirmed from your photos before the technician is booked so it isn't decided on arrival. Nunhead (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE15 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Nunhead walls, not generic walls
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Nunhead, often with surface conduit, where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in SE15, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Nunhead gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Fixed prices
Driveway cleaning prices in Nunhead
Fixed prices for SE15 and the rest of Southwark. Surface type first, then area. Block paving and resin-bound surfaces cost more per square metre than plain concrete because the lower pressure needed takes longer to cover the same area, and re-sanding or resealing is a second pass, not an add-on to the wash.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tarmac or plain concrete driveway, up to 20m² | £120 | 1–1.5 hrs | A flat, sealed surface with no joints to protect, so it's the fastest and lowest-risk driveway to hot-water wash at full pressure. |
| Block paving clean only, per m² | £4.50 | By area | Block paving has hundreds of joints per square metre; the pressure is kept low enough not to blow the jointing sand out before we've had the chance to resand it. |
| Block paving clean and re-sand with kiln-dried sand, per m² | £7.50 | By area | Kiln-dried sand has to be brushed in and vibrated down into every joint once the paving is fully dry, which is what actually stops the blocks rocking loose over winter. |
| Resin-bound driveway clean, per m² | £5.50 | By area | Resin-bound surfaces are cleaned at a lower pressure with a soft rotary head, because a standard turbo nozzle can strip aggregate out of the resin binder. |
| Pattern-imprinted concrete clean and reseal, per m² | £6.50 | By area | Imprinted concrete needs its sealant reapplied after cleaning or the colour fades and the surface starts absorbing oil and tyre marks again within a season. |
| Oil stain or moss treatment, per stain or per m² | £15 / £3 | Added to visit | Oil needs a degreaser dwell time before the hot-water wash; moss and algae need a biocide treatment first so it doesn't just regrow from the roots left in the joints. |

Scope
What's included in Nunhead
The same scope across SE15, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Southwark bookings: pressure and nozzle matched to the surface — tarmac and concrete at full strength, block paving, resin and imprinted concrete stepped down, with 7,127 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- Weed and moss growth in the joints treated with a biocide before washing, not just blasted off the surface, checked on every SE15 visit
- In Nunhead: kiln-dried sand re-application and compaction on block paving once the surface has dried, sized for the steep hill streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station
- On SE15 jobs: sealant reapplication on resin-bound and imprinted concrete driveways where the job includes it, driveway cleaning london included
- Standard on Southwark bookings: wastewater and detergent run-off contained and diverted away from surface water drains, not left to flow into the gutter, allowing for the 20% of SE15 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Photos of stubborn stains before and after, so you can see what has and hasn't lifted, noted on the Nunhead job sheet so the next visit starts from it
Not included
- Replacing cracked, sunken or missing block paving units — that's a re-lay job, quoted separately by our paving team, and we will say so before the SE15 visit rather than on the day
- Structural repointing of natural stone or brick driveways, which needs a mason rather than a pressure wash, handled by London Borough of Southwark or a specialist contractor instead
- Removing oil that has soaked deep into porous stone over years, which may need professional poulticing rather than a surface treatment, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE15
- Driveways shared with an active vehicle crossover where traffic can't be paused for the duration of the clean, outside the fixed price on Nunhead bookings

Nunhead SE15 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Nunhead — the numbers that actually change a driveway cleaning quote.
Nunhead SE15 is mainly Victorian and social-housing-led: 58% of homes here are flats and 42% are houses, across 7,127 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 20% of Nunhead is privately rented and 39% socially rented, a lot of SE15 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Nunhead, often with surface conduit, where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year behind the plaster in SE15. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Nunhead gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is the fault we are called back to undo.
Cemetery, hill views and a quiet village green between Peckham and Brockley. That character decides the practical detail of driveway cleaning here far more than the borough boundary does. Nunhead sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: steep hill streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station. Nunhead (Southeastern) is the nearest station, and one technician and a van-mounted hot-water pressure washer for most driveways; two on larger block-paving jobs where re-sanding is included, since brushing sand in is a second task run alongside the wash.

Common questions
Driveway cleaning in Nunhead SE15 — your questions.
How much does driveway cleaning cost in Nunhead SE15?
Tarmac or plain concrete driveway, up to 20m² starts at £120 in Nunhead in this 58% flats neighbourhood — and this being London Borough of Southwark territory, with Nunhead Cemetery a few streets away, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Surface type first, then area. Block paving and resin-bound surfaces cost more per square metre than plain concrete because the lower pressure needed takes longer to cover the same area on the Nunhead rounds — and 20% of SE15 homes being privately rented, with this being a short walk from Nunhead (Southeastern), and re-sanding or resealing is a second pass, not an add-on to the wash.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Nunhead SE15?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on this side of Southwark, with 39% social-rented stock nearby. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Nunhead most weeks across SE15, with 41% owner-occupation locally.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Nunhead?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on the Nunhead rounds, with 41% owner-occupation locally.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Nunhead doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on the streets near Nunhead Cemetery. With 58% of Nunhead homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm for Nunhead (SE15) addresses — and 39% social-rented stock nearby, with 20% of SE15 homes being privately rented, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
What is not included in driveway cleaning in Nunhead?
Replacing cracked, sunken or missing block paving units — that's a re-lay job, quoted separately by our paving team; Structural repointing of natural stone or brick driveways — and 58% of homes here being flats, which needs a mason rather than a pressure wash; Removing oil that has soaked deep into porous stone over years across SE15, with 42% of Nunhead homes being houses, which may need professional poulticing rather than a surface treatment; Driveways shared with an active vehicle crossover where traffic can't be paused for the duration of the clean. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Nunhead SE15 price you agree is the price you pay on this side of Southwark, with Southwark parking rules in play.
Who books driveway cleaning in Nunhead SE15 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 20% of Nunhead privately rented and 41% owner-occupied, roughly half the SE15 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on SE15 jobs — and 39% social-rented stock nearby, with 7,127 households on this patch.
How quickly can you reach Nunhead from your Southwark round?
Nunhead Cemetery is the marker we route to on the Nunhead rounds, with this being London Borough of Southwark territory, and steep hill streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station. A SE15 slot added to an existing Southwark round usually lands the same week rather than the next on SE15 jobs, with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood.
