Brickwork gets the same care. Steam or soft washing lifts black streaking and algae without eroding old lime mortar joints, which is where a pressure washer does most of its damage on older brick properties.

Render cleaning only works long-term if the method matches the surface, so on K-rend, monocouche, pebbledash and sand-and-cement render in Jarrow we soft wash — biocide applied at low pressure, given time to work into the growth, then rinsed off gently.

We're not just a Jarrow company

While Jarrow is one of the areas we work in regularly, we cover a wide spread around it, from Whitley Bay, Usworth, Jesmond and Gateshead outward — one contractor for render and brick cleaning across the whole area, rather than a patchwork of local one-off jobs.

Soft washing equipment

  • Our soft wash setup delivers biocide and rinse water at low pressure through a controlled system, rather than the high-force jets a pressure washer produces. That's the difference between cleaning render safely and risking cracked or blown coatings.

What affects the price

Two similarly sized properties can price differently depending on render type — monocouche and K-rend usually cost a little more to treat properly than sand-and-cement, since they need more careful handling — and on how much scaffolding or platform access is needed for higher elevations.

Terraced house, front elevation
from around £120–£180
Estate house, all elevations
typically £250–£350
Large detached / high elevations
typically £500–£750
Commercial unit (per elevation)
POA depending on scale

Access on site

Most render and brick cleaning jobs just need reasonable access to an outside tap or our own water supply, and enough room to set up equipment near the elevation being cleaned — tight side passages or gated access are worth mentioning when you book so we can plan for it.

Render & Brick Cleaning (Soft Wash) in Jarrow — common questions

Soft washing gets to the root of algae, lichen and black streaking rather than just blasting it off, and it's the only method that won't damage K-rend, monocouche, pebbledash or sand-and-cement render. That's the standard we work to on every job across Jarrow.

Algae, lichen and black streaking don't need a pressure washer to shift — they need the right biocide treatment and a bit of patience. That's what we bring to every render and brick job in Jarrow.
