Greenwich · SE7 · Patio and decking cleaning
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Charlton fitters · Fixed written pricesCharlton SE7 is a regular stop on our Greenwich round. Jacobean Charlton House, the Valley stadium and riverside retail parks, so patio and decking cleaning here is quoted on the street the job is on — from £4.50, in writing, with insured fitters, every fixing torqued, and the flat-pack packaging taken away.
Overview
Booked mostly by social-housing-led households around Charlton, patio and decking cleaning here covers supply-free fitting from £4.50. With 48% of Charlton's 5,904 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SE7 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
Surface type, rough area, and whether there's an outside tap.
Step 2
Per square metre, with oiling and bowser water as separate lines.
Step 3
Furniture moved, gaps cleared, biocide soak on shaded growth.
Step 4
Full strength on concrete; stepped down on stone, softwood and composite.
Step 5
Decking dried before oiling, drainage checked, furniture replaced.
Why choose us
One technician for a standard garden patio or deck; two for a roof terrace or balcony where water has to be carried up by bowser and furniture moved through a lift or stairwell. Match-day restrictions at the Valley, steep village hill and riverside estate roads.
Same-week across every borough, with weekend slots common through spring and early summer when garden and roof-terrace use picks up. Charlton (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE7 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit — and with 28% one-person households in Charlton, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in SE7, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — which is why Royal Borough of Greenwich kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Wastewater containing detergent or biocide is contained and directed away from surface water drains during the clean, and drainage outlets on roof terraces and balconies are checked and cleared as part of the visit.

Scope
Very good value for money. Booked the cleaning services and two people spent 4 hours cleaning my recently purchased flat, and the result was impressive and very reasonable priced to be in London. Highly recommended.
The cleaners I booked for my E14 flat did a great job, professional and thorough. It is easy to book services via Hello Services too. Will recommend them to anyone.
First time using this company and I could not be any happier I found them. Sekai, Gary and Richmond did an excellent job doing a full deep clean of my house. Professional, friendly and polite at all time, they made me confident the job would be of high standards from the start. Thank you very… Read in full →

Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit — and with 28% one-person households in Charlton, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site, so the fixing that matters in Charlton is chosen on site — the usual failure here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — which is why Royal Borough of Greenwich kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.

50 in Charlton, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked, with 5,904 households on this patch. Surface material first — natural stone and composite decking cost more per square metre than concrete because both need a lower pressure that takes longer to cover the same area — then access, since a roof terrace with no outside tap needs water carried up rather than run from a hose around Charlton (Southeastern) — and Greenwich parking rules in play, with a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood.
