About the area
Cranham in context
Quiet green-belt-edge suburb of bungalows and detached homes. Bungalows and detached houses on large plots with driveways and garages, which is why RM14 work is dominated by block paving. Cranham Marsh nature reserve is the landmark most customers navigate by.

Questions
Cranham RM14 jet washing questions
A front path in RM14 starts at £95, a patio up to 35 m² runs £140–£260 and a block-paved driveway up to 45 m² runs £170–£300 with re-sanding included. Minimum charge £110. Two photos get a fixed written price the same working day.
Not when the pressure matches the material. Locally that means block paving, and the risk we guard against is joint sand washed out by the previous contractor, leaving blocks free to rock. We test a hidden metre first and drop to soft washing, under 40 bar, on render, brick and fragile stone.
Yes, and it is included. Kiln-dried sand is brushed and vibrated into the joints on the day, then topped up again once the surface dries. Cleaning block paving without re-sanding leaves the blocks free to move and sink.
Into our tank. Every gully gets a drain guard before we start, silt is vacuumed up and removed under our waste carrier licence, and detergent never reaches a Havering highway drain. That is a legal requirement, not an extra.
The easiest access in London — wide roads, drives and level thresholds. London Borough of Havering suspensions and visitor permits are arranged and paid for by us and sit inside the quoted price. Where the only route to a back garden is through the house, we lay hose matting and wear boot covers.
Black spot lichen, yes — killed at the root with a biocide, fading over two to three weeks rather than on the day. Old oil soaked into porous concrete lightens with hot water and a poultice but rarely disappears. We say so before you book.
Yes. Every area in Havering has its own page, and we cross borough boundaries constantly. If your address sits on the edge of RM14, book the nearest page and we will confirm the same fixed price.
