Cleaning school playgrounds and outdoor areas

Why playgrounds get slippery and grimy, what can be cleaned, and why the school holidays are the best time.

School playgrounds, paths and outdoor areas take heavy use every day. Over time they collect dirt, algae, moss and gum, and some areas become slippery.

Why playgrounds need cleaning

  • Slips. Algae and moss on shaded paths, steps and play areas are slippery when wet.
  • Hygiene. Areas near bins and food waste can become dirty and draw pests.
  • Appearance. Parents and visitors see the playground first.

What can be cleaned

We pressure wash school playgrounds and hard outdoor surfaces, and we also clean:

  • paths and entrances
  • roofs and gutters on school buildings
  • bin stores and commercial bins
  • graffiti on walls and outbuildings

Plan around the school year

Cleaning is easiest when children aren’t on site. Half terms and the summer holidays give time for the work to be done and for surfaces to dry. Booking early helps, as many schools want the same weeks.
