Eight conservation areas around Sidcup
Willersley Avenue and Braundton Avenue, Christ Church, The Green, Halfway Street, The Hollies, Longlands Road, Old Forge Way and The Oval: Bexley files all eight under Sidcup. The middle of Sidcup ward sits inside Christ Church, and Longlands Road, Old Forge Way, The Green and the Chislehurst conservation area over the Bromley border all start within 800 metres of it. Old Forge Way is one of the four Bexley areas with an Article 4(2) direction.
The Green holds some of the oldest buildings, among them Sidcup Place, a much-altered house of 1743, and the Manor House of 1788 to 1789. After the railway came in 1866, small estates of late Victorian houses went up on quarter-acre plots. Houses that size spread a refurbishment's dust through tall rooms and long hallways. A 4-bed after a refurbishment usually takes 3 cleaners for 4 hours, £392 all in, and a 5-bed after a full renovation 4 cleaners for 6 hours, £752. Original tiles, glass and boards get products that suit them, and anything that will not come off is pointed out on the walk-round.
Flats by the station and the High Street
In Sidcup ward 36.4% of households live in purpose-built flats, and Bexley's Local Character Study names Sidcup as one of the corridors where Bexley's taller buildings stand. Recent permissions are small: 30 homes at Roxby House, 20 to 22 Station Road, approved in September 2024, and 15 at 16A St Johns Road. Rose Bruford College runs Christopher Court opposite the station, 168 en-suite rooms let to students on 40-week contracts.
In a flat the hours go on the kitchen, the bathroom and the floors. A 1-bed after a full renovation takes 2 cleaners for 4 hours, £272. Adhesive or grout residue on new floors across a whole tiled or vinyl floor is the hard floor deep clean, an extra at £6 a m², and a sofa that sat in the dust can be done as upholstery cleaning, a two-seat sofa at £57.
Parking in the Sidcup Town Centre zone
Zone S, the town centre, is controlled from 9am to 5.30pm, Monday to Saturday, so a crew's van there needs cover for the whole job. Residents of the zone can buy visitor scratch cards at £27 for ten. The Sidcup Station (B) and West Sidcup (WS) zones are controlled only from 1pm to 3pm on weekdays, with cards at £22 for ten, and businesses cannot buy cards in any zone. The office goes through parking with you when it rings to confirm the booking.
Foots Cray: the tip on Maidstone Road
Bexley's Foots Cray reuse and recycling centre is on Maidstone Road (DA14 5HS), open 7.30am to 4pm every day except Wednesday. It is free for residents with proof of address, takes carpets and mattresses for recycling and can be reached on foot, though vans are turned away. Old carpet you lift yourself can go there with you; carpet taken up by a fitter or builder is their waste, which the centre refuses. Builders' waste is a job for the builder or a licensed carrier, and the cleaning crew takes neither.
Sidcup sits between Blackfen to the north and Chislehurst to the west. The council's skip, scaffold and parking fees are on the page for after builders cleaning in Bexley, and our prices cover every size of home.
