How often should soffits and fascias be cleaned?

Every one to two years keeps growth and streaking from becoming stubborn. Shaded or coastal properties may need it slightly more often than sheltered, sunnier elevations.

Is soffit and fascia cleaning safe for my plants and garden?

Yes — we're spill management trained and take care to protect planting, paths and drains around the property during the clean.

What's the difference between a soft wash and a pressure wash?

A pressure wash uses high force that can crack uPVC joints and strip the surface finish. A soft wash uses much lower pressure combined with a biocide treatment, cleaning just as thoroughly without the risk.

What if my property has asbestos soffit boards?

We're asbestos awareness trained, so we know what to look for on older properties and will flag any concerns before starting rather than working through them.

Is your business insured?

Yes, we're fully insured, so you're covered as standard on every job we do.

What areas do you cover?

We're based in Washington and cover roughly a 45-mile radius, taking in Bishop Auckland and the wider North East around it.

Book a soft wash for the soffits and fascias in Bishop Auckland and we'll clear the cobwebs, dust, algae and black streaking, treat the growth at the root with a biocide so it's slower to come back, and bring chalky or faded uPVC back close to white.

We soft wash the soffits, fascias and bargeboards using a low-pressure system and a biocide solution, working the roofline in Bishop Auckland from ground level or from an extension pole rather than risking a pressure washer on ageing uPVC joints and seals.

Grey cobwebs strung across the soffit boards, a greasy black tideline creeping down the fascia, and uPVC that's gone from white to a dull chalky grey — if that's what greets you every time you pull onto the drive in Bishop Auckland, the roofline is well overdue a proper clean.

Getting to you from our Washington base

We're based in Washington and cover roughly 18.1 miles south out to Bishop Auckland, which puts most jobs comfortably within a single visit without needing to split the work across two days.

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

The biocide we use

Our biocide treatment is formulated to kill algae, mould, lichen and moss spores at the root, not just bleach the colour out of them. That's the difference between growth that's actually gone and growth that quietly regrows within a season.

Covering the wider North East

We work across a roughly 45-mile radius of our Washington base, which takes in Bishop Auckland and a good stretch of County Durham either side of it — so if you're nearby but not listed, it's still very likely we cover you.

Soffit & Fascia Cleaning in Bishop Auckland — common questions

We cover soffit and fascia cleaning across Bishop Auckland and the surrounding area from our Washington base, using soft wash and biocide methods that are safe on uPVC and effective on the growth causing it to look tired.

It's a relatively small job with a disproportionate effect on how a property looks from the street, especially when paired with a gutter clean while the access is already set up.

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.
