Protect and Restore Your Exterior Walls
All exterior walls are susceptible to atmospheric pollution, dust, dirt, mould spores, bacteria, moss, fungi, lichen, and algae growth. In the UK, frequent rain contributes significantly to the deposition of organic matter on your walls.
While brick or masonry walls may develop a charming patina with age, rendered surfaces with their large, uniform color areas can look unsightly when marred by algae and grime, especially on bright-colored render.
Key Challenges for Rendered Surfaces:
Porous Nature: Many types of render are breathable, allowing moisture to escape and providing an ideal environment for mould spores and organic growth.
Textured Surfaces: These attract dirt and bacteria, making them difficult to clean without specialized treatment.
Graffiti and Ivy: Graffiti can severely damage the look of rendered surfaces, and removing ivy growth can leave significant messes.
Mineral Salt Accumulation: Grit from winter roads and sea spray can cause mineral salts to crystallize in the render, leading to tiny fissures or capillaries, which can result in cracks that need repair.
Pollution Staining: Black staining from carbon and pollution, along with green or red algae growth common in coastal regions, can make rendered facades look unsightly.
Take Action Against Wall Contaminants:
Combat Organic Growth: Address green or red stains from algae, mould, and bacteria that thrive on rendered surfaces.
Restore Aesthetics: Remove unsightly grime, graffiti, and the mess left by ivy to restore the clean, uniform look of your render.
Prevent Damage: Treat mineral salt accumulation to prevent the crystallization and cracking of your render.
Our specialized cleaning solutions are designed to address these issues effectively, preserving the integrity and appearance of your exterior walls. Let us help you maintain your building’s beauty and protect it from further damage. Contact us today to learn more and schedule a cleaning.
Protect and Revitalize Your Roof
Moss, algae, lichens, and other atmospheric growths can cause structural damage to roofs, despite some considering the greenish hues 'quaint.' A common bacterium, Gloeocapsa magma, also causes unsightly black staining. When a roof becomes covered with moss, it's often near the end of its projected life cycle, making maintenance and cleaning crucial. Traditional high-pressure cleaning methods can further damage aging roofs and are not recommended by roofing material manufacturers or associations.
Why Softwashing is the Superior Solution
Softwashing offers a gentle yet effective method for roof cleaning and restoration. Our pH-neutral blend targets specific roof infections and eliminates Gloeocapsa magma without damaging roof materials. Using a low-pressure tank system and light brushing, we ensure thorough sanitization. Softwashing harnesses the power of chemistry to eliminate infestations at both the surface and root, with products that activate in minutes and remain effective for months.
Our Softwashing Process
Comprehensive Roof Analysis: We conduct a thorough analysis and risk assessment of your roof to identify the exact infections and any areas needing repair before cleaning.
Preparatory Cleaning: Surface mosses and lichens are removed, eliminating 90% of visible growth before applying the softwash solution.
Protecting Surroundings: We take all necessary precautions to protect your garden and surroundings from exposure to the softwash solution.
Gentle Cleaning: Using minimal pressure, we cleanse the roof with the correctly blended softwash detergents, which kill and eliminate spores and bacteria like Gloeocapsa magma.
Gutter and Fascia Cleaning: We also clean and shine your guttering and fascias for a complete finish.
Unlike high-pressure blasting, which can damage roofs and fail to address the root cause of infections, our professional low-pressure softwashing solution leaves roofs clear and secure for months to come. Contact us today to learn more about our softwashing services and schedule a consultation.
