Overview

Patio and decking cleaning in Holland Park W11, explained

Booked mostly by renter-heavy households around Holland Park, patio and decking cleaning here covers supply-free fitting from £4.50. With 80% of Holland Park's 3,387 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in W11 shape the slot length we hold.

How it works

How patio and decking cleaning works in Holland Park

Five steps, the same on every W11 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Holland Park gives us victorian and Edwardian conversion flats with original lath-and-plaster partitions, the reality on the streets around Holland Park and the Kyoto Garden is what we plan for here.

  1. Step 1

    Tell us the surface and access

    Concrete, natural stone, softwood or composite, roughly the area, and whether there's an outside tap or the flat needs water carried up by bowser.

  2. Step 2

    Fixed written quote

    Priced per square metre for the surface you have, with oiling, re-staining or a bowser water supply shown as separate lines rather than bundled in.

  3. Step 3

    Clear and pre-treat

    Furniture and planters moved, deck board gaps cleared of leaf litter, and algae or lichen in shaded corners given a biocide soak before washing.

  4. Step 4

    Wash at the right pressure

    Concrete at full strength; natural stone, softwood and composite all stepped down to protect the surface, using a wide fan nozzle on composite specifically.

  5. Step 5

    Dry, treat and hand back

    Softwood decking is left to dry before any oiling; drainage outlets on roof terraces are checked clear; furniture is put back once the surface is dry underfoot.

Why choose us

Why Holland Park customers book us

What follows is specific to Holland Park: its walls, its access and the paperwork Kensington and Chelsea agents ask for.

Holland Park walls, not generic walls

We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs — where 40% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in W11, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — measured on the walk in from Holland Park (Central) rather than assumed from a map.

Insured and documented

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.

Crew sized to the job

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. Driveways on some villas; elsewhere permit bays, gated entrances and listed interiors.

Booked around your day

Same-week across every borough, with weekend slots common through spring and early summer when garden and roof-terrace use picks up. Holland Park (Central) is the nearest station, so a W11 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Fixed prices

Patio and decking cleaning prices in Holland Park

Fixed prices for W11 and the rest of Kensington and Chelsea. 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.
Patio and decking cleaning price guide for Holland Park W11
JobFromTypical timeWhat sets the price
Concrete flag patio, per m²£4.50By areaManufactured concrete flags take a standard rotary surface cleaner at full pressure without any risk to the finish.
York stone or sandstone patio, per m²£6.50By areaNatural stone is more porous and softer than concrete, so it's cleaned at a lower pressure with a specialist stone-safe cleaner rather than the standard detergent.
Softwood decking clean, per m²£5By areaSoftwood boards need the pressure kept low and the nozzle kept moving, since a static jet will fur the grain and shorten the board's life.
Composite decking clean, per m²£5.50By areaComposite boards need a wide fan nozzle and a lower bar pressure than timber, since a narrow jet can strip the capping layer that gives composite its colour and grip.
Decking oiling or re-staining after cleaning, per m²£4Added to visitSoftwood decking needs re-oiling once dry to stay weatherproof; this is priced as a separate pass because it can only start once the boards have fully dried out.
Roof terrace or balcony deck, per m²£7By areaNo mains tap on most roof terraces means water is carried up by bowser, and drainage outlets have to be checked and cleared as part of the visit, not just the deck surface.

Domestic prices are the total you pay; managing agents and landlords are invoiced plus VAT at 20%. Furniture moved off the patio or deck before cleaning and put back after, and clearing debris from drainage gaps between deck boards, are included. Where a bowser or extended hose run is needed for a flat with no outside tap, that's shown as its own line.

Scope

What's included in Holland Park

The same scope across W11, whether the job is a single item or a full room.

Included in the price

  • Surface identified before we start — concrete, natural stone, softwood or composite — and the pressure and nozzle set for it — including patio and decking cleaning
  • Standard on Kensington and Chelsea bookings: algae, moss and lichen in shaded, north-facing corners treated with a biocide first rather than pressure-blasted alone, arranged with Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea where the kerb needs it
  • On W11 jobs: deck board gaps cleared of trapped leaves and debris so water drains through rather than pooling and rotting the joists, with 80% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
  • In Holland Park: furniture and planters moved before cleaning and repositioned afterwards, the way it is done on Holland Park jobs
  • Wastewater and any cleaning product run-off directed away from surface water drains during the wash, noted on the Holland Park job sheet so the next visit starts from it
  • Standard on Kensington and Chelsea bookings: a drainage check on roof terraces and balconies to confirm outlets are clear once the clean is finished, allowing for the 43% of W11 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off

Not included

  • Replacing rotten, cracked or delaminating deck boards — that's a repair job, quoted separately by our decking team, outside the fixed price on Holland Park bookings
  • Repointing or re-bedding natural stone patio slabs that have come loose or sunk, quoted separately if you need it arranged in W11
  • Deep oil or paint staining that has soaked into porous stone and may need professional poulticing rather than a surface wash, handled by Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea or a specialist contractor instead
  • Structural work on raised decking or a roof terrace balustrade, which needs a qualified joiner or builder, and we will say so before the W11 visit rather than on the day

Thankyou to Nicole and Marius and colleagues for a superb clean of our family home. It was done under difficult circumstances with removal people still emptying the property of furniture and boxes around them as we were moving out after nearly 40 years.

Working in Holland Park

Holland Park W11 at a glance

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Holland Park — the numbers that actually change a patio and decking cleaning quote.

Walk Holland Park from Holland Park and the Kyoto Garden outwards and the period conversion pattern is obvious: 80% of the 3,387 households in W11 live in flats, 20% in houses.

Private renting sits at 43% and owner-occupation at 40%; the first group books patio and decking cleaning at short notice, the second plans it.

Holland Park substrates run to with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs — where 40% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — measured on the walk in from Holland Park (Central) rather than assumed from a map is the mistake that costs a W11 customer twice.

Two streets can behave very differently in Holland Park: wide villa avenues around the park and the Design Museum. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Holland Park 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: driveways on some villas; elsewhere permit bays, gated entrances and listed interiors. Holland Park (Central) is the nearest station, and 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.

Common questions

Patio and decking cleaning in Holland Park W11 — your questions.

  • How much does patio and decking cleaning cost in Holland Park W11?

    50 in Holland Park, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked on W11 jobs, with this being a short walk from Holland Park (Central). 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 on this side of Kensington and Chelsea — and 37% one-person households here, with 43% of W11 homes being privately rented.

  • Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Holland Park W11?

    Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions across W11, with a median age of 39 in this neighbourhood. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Holland Park most weeks on the Holland Park rounds, with 3,387 households on this patch.

  • How long does flat-pack assembly take in Holland Park?

    For W11 bookings, 5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on Kensington and Chelsea bookings, with this being Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea territory. Around Holland Park (Central) we allow for the parking and the walk-in before the slot is confirmed.

  • Will a built wardrobe fit through a Holland Park doorway?

    That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in for Holland Park (W11) addresses. With 80% of Holland Park homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on the streets near Holland Park and the Kyoto Garden — and Holland Park and the Kyoto Garden a few streets away, with a median age of 39 in this neighbourhood, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.

  • Who books patio and decking cleaning in Holland Park W11 — tenants, landlords or owners?

    All three. With 43% of Holland Park privately rented and 40% owner-occupied, roughly half the W11 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on this side of Kensington and Chelsea — and 3,387 households on this patch, with this being a short walk from Holland Park (Central).

  • How quickly can you reach Holland Park from your Kensington and Chelsea round?

    Holland Park and the Kyoto Garden is the marker we route to on the Holland Park rounds, with Holland Park and the Kyoto Garden a few streets away, and driveways on some villas; elsewhere permit bays, gated entrances and listed interiors. A W11 slot added to an existing Kensington and Chelsea round usually lands the same week rather than the next for Holland Park (W11) addresses, with 43% of W11 homes being privately rented.

  • Is same-day or evening patio and decking cleaning available in Kensington and Chelsea?

    Same-week across every borough, with weekend slots common through spring and early summer when garden and roof-terrace use picks up on the Holland Park rounds, with 3,387 households on this patch. Holland Park sits close to Holland Park (Central) on Kensington and Chelsea bookings, with a median age of 39 in this neighbourhood — and this being a short walk from Holland Park (Central), so we can usually add a W11 job to an existing Kensington and Chelsea round at short notice.
