Half the households in Erith ward live in flats (51.3%), about double the Bexley figure, and Erith Park put 587 new homes where seven tower blocks stood. Complete After Builders cleans flats and houses here after the works from £212 all in; a 2-bed flat after a refurbishment usually takes 2 cleaners for 4 hours, £272.

Erith in numbers

Erith Park, shared ownership and the riverside flats

Erith Park was finished in September 2019 on the old Larner Road estate: houses and mid-rise flats, four in five let at an affordable rent or sold as shared ownership. In Erith ward 6.3% of households are shared owners, against 1.3% across Bexley, and 28.1% rent from a social landlord. A shared owner decorating for the first time and a landlord refitting between tenancies end up wanting the same clean: dust out of every cupboard and drawer, paint flecks off the glass where they will come off, and the kitchen and bathroom fittings wiped and polished. The page on cleaning a new kitchen or bathroom covers sealant smears and grout haze.

The Erith permit zone (ER) is controlled from 10am to 12 noon on weekdays, and only residents in it can buy visitor scratch cards, at £22 for ten. If your block has its own parking or a loading bay, tell the office when it rings to confirm.

Lesney Park Road: Victorian and Edwardian houses on wide plots

Erith grew after the North Kent line opened its station on 30 July 1849, from 2,082 people in 1841 to 8,289 in 1871. The Lesney Park Road conservation area keeps the core of the suburbs that followed. Its big houses, detached or in pairs, went up over about sixty years until the 1920s, set back on generous plots behind verges and street trees, and the Grade II* Christ Church stands among them. Erith Riverside, by the old town, is a second conservation area within 800 metres of the middle of Erith ward. In the Council Tax records 21.3% of local homes with a recorded build date went up before 1900.

Five bedrooms in a house like that means a third cleaner on the crew. A 5-bed after a refurbishment usually takes 3 cleaners for 5 hours, £482 all in, and after a full renovation 4 cleaners for 6 hours, £752. Mention high ceilings and tall windows when you send photos, because the crew's ladders reach about 2 metres.

Erith Western Gateway and the riverside sites

On the council's brownfield register, Erith Western Gateway got permission for 311 homes in April 2024, and Morrisons Erith is listed for 400 without permission yet. The London Plan puts Erith inside the Bexley Riverside opportunity area, and 6.5% of local homes already date from 2015 or later.

The first clean in a new flat is lighter: mostly fine dust in the cupboards, stickers on the glazing and smears on the sanitaryware. With light dust a 2-bed takes 2 cleaners for 3 hours, £212.

Erith has Belvedere to the west, Barnehurst to the south and Crayford to the south-east. The council's skip, scaffold and tip rules are on the page for Bexley, and what a builders clean costs lists every size of home.

Erith builders clean questions

Anything else? Ring 07418 351088.

Can you clean a shared-ownership flat before we move in?

Yes. Book once the handover or your own decorating is finished; with light dust a 2-bed takes 2 cleaners for 3 hours: £212 all in, at £30 per cleaner-hour plus £32 for equipment and detergents.

How much is a builders clean for a big Victorian house in Erith?

A 5-bed after a refurbishment usually takes 3 cleaners for 5 hours: £482 all in. For a large or unusual job a site visit costs £20, though photos or a video by email usually do instead.

Where will the crew park in the Erith zone?

The ER zone is controlled from 10am to 12 noon on weekdays; outside that window you can park free except on double yellow lines. The office asks about a drive or a free space when it rings.

Our sofa stayed in the room during the works. Can you clean it?

Yes, as an add-on: a two-seat sofa is £57. See sofas and mattresses after the works for what the clean involves.
