Windows that stay clean longer

Pure water leaves a streak-free finish on glass, frames and sills, without harsh detergents.

A team you'll recognise

The same trained, uniformed faces visit your home, season after season. Not a different crew each time.

Pure-water systems and a fully electric fleet, without making it the headline.

The Soft-Wash Method

Low pressure, careful chemistry, lasting clean.

Soft washing uses a tailored cleaning solution at low pressure to lift organic growth - algae, lichen, mildew - at source. It's the right method for delicate surfaces a jet wash would damage.

Surface assessed first

Render, painted brick, stone, K Rend or pebbledash all behave differently. We assess the substrate before any biocide is mixed.

Solution applied at low pressure

A plant-safe biocide is sprayed at fan-pattern low pressure. It penetrates the spore root, not just the visible surface stain.

Rinsed clean, treated to last

Surfaces rinsed clean once the solution has done its work. Treated walls stay clear of regrowth for 12-18 months in most London exposures.

What's included

More than a surface clean.

Soft washing treats the cause, not just the symptom. Every visit covers the substrate, the surrounding paint, and the plant beds below.

Walls cleaned and treated

Render, painted brick, stone, K Rend, pebbledash. Cleaned in a single pass, biocide-treated to suppress regrowth.

Roof tile soft-wash by arrangement

Concrete and clay roof tiles cleaned without high-pressure damage. Specialist surfactants for moss, lichen and black algae.

Painted exteriors

We never blast paint off. Soft-wash chemistry lifts grime without disturbing the paint film, so the wall stays looking its age, not stripped.

Garden plants protected

Pre-soaked, sheeted where needed. Biocides chosen for plant safety, but we still cover beds adjacent to the wall as routine.

Run-off captured

We catch and contain run-off where regulations require it - particularly near drains, ponds and watercourses. Always responsibly disposed.

Issues flagged on the day

Cracked render, failed paint, lifted pointing - flagged on the day so you can plan repairs rather than discovering them later.

Built for these properties

Specialists in delicate exteriors.

Different substrates need different soft-wash chemistries. Most of London and Kent's period exteriors we already know.

Rendered townhouses

Smooth render, K Rend, painted Tyrolean. Soft-washed to lift biological growth without leaving the streak lines a jet wash creates.

Painted brick and stone

Painted exteriors that a jet wash would strip. Soft-wash chemistry lifts dirt while leaving the paint film intact.

Roof tiles

Concrete and clay tiles cleaned of moss, lichen and black algae. We never pressure-wash tiles - only soft-wash with appropriate surfactants.

Conservatory walls and lean-tos

Carefully washed without disturbing glazing seals or roof drips. Tailored low-pressure for sensitive surfaces.

Period rendered Kent farmhouses

Lime-render walls need a gentler chemistry. We test on a hidden patch first, then proceed if the substrate is sound.

Garden walls and boundary brickwork

Soft-washed to lift green algae and black mould - particularly the north-facing walls that never get sun.

How we work

Gentle pressure. Right chemistry. Plant-safe.

Soft washing is technical work. The difference between a clean and a damaged exterior is in the detail.

Patch-tested first

On unfamiliar substrates we patch-test before committing to a full visit. Lime render, soft sandstone and old paint can react unpredictably.

Fully insured, plant-safe

£5m public liability, employer's liability, accidental-damage cover. Biocides chosen for plant safety, not just effectiveness.

Trained, uniformed teams

Soft-wash chemistry needs training. Our teams are certified on the products we use, with refreshers every season.

Considered, not aggressive

If a jet wash is the right call instead, we'll say so. We never sell soft washing where it isn't the right method.

A direct line for access questions, period-property detail, or anything else that's quicker to talk through than write.

Choose the right rhythm

One-off, biennial or seasonal.

Most exteriors stay clear for 12-18 months after a soft wash. Heavy north-facing walls and damp microclimates benefit from more frequent treatment.

One-off treatment

A single visit when the wall is visibly green or stained. Ideal pre-sale or before a paint refresh. Quoted per property.

Biennial visit

Every two years. The rhythm most rendered homes settle into - keeps the wall looking cared for without over-treatment.

Annual maintenanceRecommended

For damp, north-facing or tree-covered exteriors. Annual visits prevent the deep staining that needs harsher cleaning to remove.

Soft-wash visit cost varies with wall area and access. Every quote is itemised - including biocide volume and dwell times.

Questions

Things people often ask.

How is soft washing different from a jet wash?
Soft washing uses low pressure and a tailored cleaning solution to lift organic growth at source. A jet wash uses high pressure mechanical force. Jet washing is right for hard surfaces (driveways, patios) - soft washing is right for walls, paint and tiles.
Will the biocide harm my plants?
We choose plant-safe products and pre-soak, sheet or otherwise protect adjacent plant beds. Tell us about any prized plants near the wall and we'll plan around them.
How long does it stay clean?
12-18 months in most London exposures. North-facing walls, damp microclimates and properties near woodland will need treatment more often.
Can you soft-wash a roof?
Yes - concrete and clay roof tiles. We never pressure-wash tiles. Roof soft-wash is a specialist visit, usually quoted separately.
