My uPVC has gone grey and chalky — can that be fixed?

Chalky, faded uPVC can usually be brought back closer to its original colour with a restoration treatment, applied alongside the soft wash. A standard clean alone won't fully shift genuine oxidisation.

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.

Do you cover commercial properties as well as houses?

Yes, we clean roofline on shops, offices, industrial units and public buildings as well as domestic properties, and can work around opening hours where needed.

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 Peterlee and the wider North East around it.

Durham County Council · SR8 · 12 miles south-east of our Washington base

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.

Victorian terraces and original timber-effect boarding

Many of the Victorian terraces around Peterlee 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.

Post-war new town estates built from 1948 under the New Towns Act 1946. 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.

What we do — and what we deliberately don't

We do use low-pressure soft washing, a biocide treatment to kill algae and mould at the root, and hand tools to work cobwebs out of vents and corners a hose can't reach. We do check uPVC condition first, since chalky or faded boards need a different, gentler approach to restore rather than just clean.

We don't use high-pressure jet washers on uPVC, we don't rely on bleach, which only bleaches growth rather than killing it, and we don't rush the job — a roofline done properly takes a bit longer than a quick rinse.

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.

Working on narrower or terraced streets

Older terraced streets around Peterlee sometimes mean working from the pavement or a neighbour's frontage with permission, and we plan the visit around that rather than assuming standard driveway access.
