Will a soft wash damage my uPVC?

No — that's the point of using low pressure rather than a jet washer. Soft washing cleans thoroughly without the risk of forcing water behind boards or cracking joints the way high pressure can.

Can you get the black streaking off, or does it come back straight away?

We can remove it, and because the biocide treatment kills the algae and mould causing it at the root, it takes noticeably longer to return than after a standard rinse or a bleach-only clean.

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.

How long does the job take?

A standard domestic property usually takes a couple of hours. Larger properties, restoration work, or a combined gutter clean will add to that.

White uPVC that actually looks white again, soffits clear of cobwebs and dust, and no more black tideline running down the fascia below the gutter — that's the difference a proper soft wash makes to a roofline in Seaham, usually within an afternoon.

A soft wash with a biocide treatment does the opposite: low pressure protects the boards, and the biocide gets into the growth at the root, so cobwebs, dust, mould and black streaking clear properly and take longer to return.

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 Seaham, the roofline is well overdue a proper clean.

Biocide trained, so growth stays gone

Biocide trained (2024): Up-to-date training in biocide application means algae and mould are killed at the root, not just knocked back.
Fully insured: Every job is covered by public liability insurance.
Softwash, steam and low-pressure methods: We choose the right method for the surface rather than using one approach for everything.
Camera proof: A pole-mounted camera lets us show you before-and-after results, particularly for gutters.

Homeowners

Getting a property ready to sell or let

Buyers and tenants notice the outside of a house before they notice anything inside it, and grubby soffits or streaked fascias can make an otherwise well-kept property look neglected in photos and on viewings. A soft wash before marketing is a small job with a disproportionate effect on first impressions.

Walkaround
A final walkaround confirms the roofline and gutters are both finished to standard.

What a soft-washed roofline looks like afterwards

By the time we've finished, cobwebs and dust are gone from the soffit vents, the black streaking that ran down the fascia has been lifted, and uPVC that had gone dull or chalky looks noticeably brighter — often close to its original white.

That result comes from the biocide working at the root of the growth rather than a cosmetic wipe-over, which is also why the roofline stays cleaner for longer afterwards instead of streaking again within a few months.

What affects the price

Two-storey property
