Render and brick cleaning in Sacriston typically runs from around £150 for a single elevation up to £550–£650 for a full detached property, depending on render type, how established the growth is, and access.

Housing across Durham County Council covers everything from 1930s pebbledash semis to newer K-rend and monocouche estates, and render cleaning has to be matched to what's actually on the wall — a method that's fine on sand-and-cement render can strip a thin acrylic monocouche coat if it's done with a pressure washer instead of a soft wash.

Why does render in Sacriston turn green on one elevation and stay clean on the other three? Usually it comes down to shade, prevailing wind and how much rain that particular wall sees — north and west-facing K-rend and monocouche hold moisture longer, and moisture is exactly what algae and lichen need to get established.

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.
