Overview
Patio and decking cleaning in Catford SE6, explained
Patio and decking cleaning in Catford SE6 is a fixed-price visit for mixed-tenure homes in Lewisham, most of them mainly Victorian. 6,981 households sit inside this SE6 patch, 62% of them flats, so we quote on access near The Catford Cat rather than a London average.
How it works
How patio and decking cleaning works in Catford
Five steps, the same on every SE6 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In SE6, New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard — and with 33% one-person households in Catford, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Tell us the surface and access
Surface type, rough area, and whether there's an outside tap.
Step 2
Fixed written quote
Per square metre, with oiling and bowser water as separate lines.
Step 3
Clear and pre-treat
Furniture moved, gaps cleared, biocide soak on shaded growth.
Step 4
Wash at the right pressure
Full strength on concrete; stepped down on stone, softwood and composite.
Step 5
Dry, treat and hand back
Decking dried before oiling, drainage checked, furniture replaced.
Why choose us
Why Catford customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Catford wall.
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. South Circular red route, shopping-centre service yards and permit bays behind.
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. Catford (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a SE6 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Catford walls, not generic walls
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in Catford, with metal stud partitions between rooms, with 25% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in SE6, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Catford stock goes, a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Fixed prices
Patio and decking cleaning prices in Catford
Fixed prices for SE6 and the rest of Lewisham. 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.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Concrete flag patio, per m² | £4.50 | By area | Full-pressure rotary surface cleaner. |
| York stone or sandstone patio, per m² | £6.50 | By area | Lower pressure, stone-safe cleaner. |
| Softwood decking clean, per m² | £5 | By area | Low pressure, nozzle kept moving. |
| Composite decking clean, per m² | £5.50 | By area | Wide fan nozzle protects the capping layer. |
| Decking oiling or re-staining after cleaning, per m² | £4 | Added to visit | Separate pass once boards have dried. |
| Roof terrace or balcony deck, per m² | £7 | By area | Bowser water and a drainage check. |

Scope
What's included in Catford
The same scope across SE6, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Catford: surface identified first — concrete, natural stone, softwood or composite — and the pressure set for it, timed against the walk in from Catford (Southeastern)
- On SE6 jobs: algae, moss and lichen treated with a biocide before washing, agreed on the doorstep in Catford before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Lewisham bookings: deck board gaps cleared so water drains through, allowing for the 33% of SE6 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Furniture and planters moved and repositioned, noted on the Catford job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- In Catford: wastewater directed away from surface water drains, the way it is done on Catford jobs
- On SE6 jobs: drainage outlets on roof terraces and balconies checked clear, with 62% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
Not included
- Replacing rotten, cracked or delaminating deck boards, which we refer on to the right trade in Catford
- Repointing or re-bedding loose or sunken stone slabs, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE6
- Deep oil or paint staining soaked into porous stone, outside the fixed price on Catford bookings
- Structural work on raised decking or balustrades, and we will say so before the SE6 visit rather than on the day

Catford SE6 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Catford — the numbers that actually change a patio and decking cleaning quote.
6,981 households sit inside the SE6 neighbourhood covering Catford. The build is mainly Victorian, the tenure profile mixed-tenure, and 62% of those homes are flats.
With 33% private renting against 42% owner-occupied, most SE6 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Catford substrates run to dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in Catford, with metal stud partitions between rooms, with 25% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Catford stock goes, a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is the mistake that costs a SE6 customer twice.
The fibreglass cat, the Broadway theatre and the Rushey Green shops. That character decides the practical detail of patio and decking cleaning here far more than the borough boundary does. Catford is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, south Circular red route, shopping-centre service yards and permit bays behind — one reason 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 Catford SE6 — your questions.
How much does patio and decking cleaning cost in Catford SE6?
50 in Catford, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked on the Catford rounds, with 38% of Catford homes being houses. 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 for Catford (SE6) addresses — and 33% of SE6 homes being privately rented, with The Catford Cat a few streets away.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Catford SE6?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions around Catford (Southeastern), with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Catford most weeks on SE6 jobs, with this being London Borough of Lewisham territory.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Catford?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level in Catford, with 25% social-rented stock nearby.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Catford doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in for Catford (SE6) addresses. With 62% of Catford homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on the Catford rounds, with 25% social-rented stock nearby — and The Catford Cat a few streets away, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
How quickly can you reach Catford from your Lewisham round?
The Catford Cat is the marker we route to for Catford (SE6) addresses, with this being a short walk from Catford (Southeastern), and south Circular red route, shopping-centre service yards and permit bays behind. A SE6 slot added to an existing Lewisham round usually lands the same week rather than the next on the streets near The Catford Cat, with 42% owner-occupation locally.
Is same-day or evening patio and decking cleaning available in Lewisham?
Same-week across every borough, with weekend slots common through spring and early summer when garden and roof-terrace use picks up on Lewisham bookings, with Lewisham parking rules in play. Catford sits close to Catford (Southeastern), with 33% one-person households here, so we can usually add a SE6 job to an existing Lewisham round at short notice in this 62% flats neighbourhood.
Do you handle difficult access in Catford?
South Circular red route, shopping-centre service yards and permit bays behind on the Catford rounds. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in London Borough of Lewisham it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on SE6 jobs — and The Catford Cat a few streets away, with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood.
