Why Hello Services
Why Hello Services in Elephant and Castle
Re-sanding included, never an add-on
Kiln-dried sand brushed and vibrated in on the day in this 96% flats neighbourhood, with a median age of 28 in this neighbourhood, then topped up once the surface dries. Near Elephant Park that usually means an earlier start so the van can be unloaded once.
Treatments and local costs
What can change the price in Elephant and Castle
| Treatment | From | Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Kiln-dried re-sanding | Included | included on block paving |
| Weed and moss root treatment | Quoted per job — free quote | per driveway or patio |
| Impregnating or acrylic sealing | Quoted per job — free quote | per m², quoted per job |

- Parking and permits
- London Borough of Southwark suspensions and visitor permits are arranged, paid for by us and already inside the quote.
- Charging zones
- Part of Southwark sits inside the Congestion Charge zone and all of it is inside ULEZ. Our vans are compliant, so ULEZ and the Congestion Charge never reach your invoice.
- Water and power
- No outside tap or socket? We carry a bowser and a generator, and we never recharge metered water.
