Restore Your Roofline — Soffit & Fascia Cleaning in Alnwick
Alnwick soffit and fascia specialists. Soft wash cleaning removes cobwebs, algae and black streaking, and restores faded uPVC. Call 07501 060609 today.
A soft wash before spring, or after the leaves come down in autumn, clears the lot and treats the growth at the root so it's slower to return.
The biocide kills algae, mould and lichen at the root rather than just blasting it off the surface, cobwebs and dust get cleared as part of the same visit, and where the uPVC itself has gone chalky or faded we can follow up with a restoration treatment to bring the colour back.
Soffit and fascia cleaning in Alnwick typically runs from around £90 for a straightforward semi up to £200-plus for a larger detached property, and it's one of the better-value jobs on the outside of the house — a couple of hours' work that changes how the whole roofline looks from the street.

Homeowners
For homeowners who can't safely get up there themselves
Cleaning cobwebs and streaking off a roofline usually means a ladder or an extension pole, which isn't something every homeowner wants to be doing themselves. We bring the right equipment and do the whole job from ground level or a safe platform, so nobody in Alnwick needs to risk it.
1960s and '70s estate housing
Roofline fitted to Alnwick's 1960s and '70s estate housing is now old enough that the original uPVC has often gone chalky and faded from decades of UV exposure, on top of the usual cobwebs and algae buildup.
A straight soft wash lifts the dirt and kills the growth, but boards this age frequently benefit from a restoration pass as well, since a standard clean won't bring back colour that's genuinely oxidised.
Careful on older properties
Asbestos awareness trained
We're trained to recognise potential asbestos-containing materials before starting work on older roofline.
Spill management trained
Biocide and cleaning agents are contained and managed properly on site.
Fully insured
Public liability cover in place for every job.
Softwash, steam and low-pressure methods
The gentlest method suitable for the surface is used, protecting older or brittle uPVC.
How we soft wash your roofline
We start by clearing loose cobwebs and dust from the soffits, vents and fascia boards, working the full run so nothing gets missed under the eaves or behind downpipes.
Next we apply a biocide solution at low pressure, targeting the algae, mould and lichen causing the black streaking and killing it at the root rather than just moving it around. A final soft rinse lifts the loosened dirt and leaves the uPVC clean.
How we approach a larger commercial run
- 1
Site walk and quote confirmation
We walk the full run of roofline on site to confirm access, extent and any areas needing extra care.
- 2
Access and containment setup
Equipment is set up to work efficiently along long runs, with care taken around parking, footfall and drains for spill management.
- 3
Sectional soft wash
The roofline is worked in sections with biocide treatment and low-pressure rinse, keeping a consistent finish across the full length.
- 4
Signage and detail check
Any signage boards or branded fascia sections get extra attention to keep lettering and colour crisp.
- 5
Sign-off walkaround
We complete a final walkaround with whoever's managing the site before finishing up.
How we set up on site
Soft wash equipment and extension poles mean we rarely need scaffolding or a cherry picker for standard roofline work. Where parking or access is tight, we're happy to talk through it beforehand so there's no surprise on the day.
When restoration is needed
Chalky or badly faded uPVC needs more than a standard soft wash to bring the colour back, so restoration work is quoted as an addition to the base clean rather than included as standard. It's worth it on boards that have gone visibly grey or dull.
| Standard soft wash | typically £80–£160 |
|---|---|
| Restoration, single elevation | from around £40–£70 |
| Restoration, full property | typically £120–£220 extra |
| Clean plus full restoration | typically £220–£380 |

A grubby roofline is one of the first things people notice about a house, and left untreated the growth causing black streaking just gets more established. A soft wash sorts it properly rather than papering over the problem for a season.
Chalky, faded uPVC? We can fix that.
