How much does soffit and fascia cleaning cost?

It depends on the size of the property and how much roofline there is to cover, but most domestic jobs typically run from around £80 to £200. We'll confirm a firm price before starting.

Do you clean gutters at the same time?

Most customers have their gutters cleared in the same visit, since the access is already set up. It's usually better value than booking the two separately.

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.

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.

Do you offer quotes without a site visit?

For straightforward properties we can often give a good estimate over the phone or from photos. For larger or more complicated roofline, a quick look on site gets you a more accurate figure.

What areas do you cover?

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

Add a gutter clean to the same visit and we'll photograph before and after with the pole-mounted camera, so you can see exactly what's come out rather than taking our word for it.

Book a soft wash for the soffits and fascias in Durham 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.

Semis, terraces, bungalows and detached houses in Durham all end up with the same tell-tale signs on the roofline — cobwebs under the eaves, dust that's turned to grime, and black algae streaking down from the guttering — but how badly depends a lot on the property's age, the boards fitted and how sheltered the elevation is.

Straightforward access via the A1(M)

Durham is easily reached via the A1(M), which keeps travel time predictable and means we can commit to a firm arrival window rather than a vague half-day slot.

Victorian terraces and original timber-effect boarding

Many of the Victorian terraces around Durham have been fitted with uPVC roofline over the original timber, and the narrow eaves and close-set houses mean soffits sit in permanent shade for large parts of the day — ideal conditions for algae and black streaking to take hold.

Historic city centre little changed in 200 years, with Georgian buildings. means access is often tighter than on a modern estate too, so we work carefully around bay windows and shared boundary lines rather than assuming a standard approach will fit.

Homes & businesses

Schools, clubs and public buildings

Public-facing buildings in Durham — schools, clubs, community halls — tend to get roofline cleaning scheduled around term times or quiet periods. We can work around opening hours and provide before-and-after photos for records or governor reports.

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.

When the uPVC also needs restoring

1
Assess the boards
We check whether the uPVC is simply dirty or has genuinely chalked and faded, since that changes the approach.
2
Clear and pre-treat
Cobwebs and loose debris are cleared, then a biocide pre-treatment is applied to any active growth.
3
Soft wash
The full roofline is soft washed to remove dust, dirt and the treated algae or mould.
4
Restoration treatment
A dedicated uPVC restoration product is worked into chalky or faded sections to lift oxidisation.
5
Rinse and inspect
A final rinse removes residue and we check the colour and finish against the rest of the roofline.
