Pressure washing in Clapham.

Agree the boundary of a shared job.

For an entrance serving more than one home, tell us who is responsible for the surface and who can approve cleaning. Include the path, gate, steps and the doors residents use. We need an access plan that works for everyone.

A quote should distinguish shared paving from a private garden. The water supply, moving possessions and keeping doors secure also need agreement. Mention a landlord or managing agent before a visit is arranged.

Let the front and back have different methods.

Old entrance tiles, a concrete side return and rear stone paving should not be treated as one material. Photograph the joints and any damaged edges on each. For a deck, add the board manufacturer if you know it.

We discuss the suitable method and expected finish for each area. Cleaning does not reverse rot, settlement or worn coatings. If one part needs repair first, the scope can identify it without turning the whole enquiry into an all-or-nothing decision.

Use the address when arranging parking.

Clapham addresses can fall near Lambeth and Wandsworth boundaries, and “Clapham Junction” is not an interchangeable label for every SW4 address. Share the full address so the practical arrangements are checked against the right place.

Lambeth publishes a traders’ voucher route for relevant parking arrangements. Check its current conditions if your address is in that borough, and agree the proposed vehicle and visit with us first. We do not assume an ordinary visitor permit is suitable everywhere.
