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.

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.

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.

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 Shiney Row and the wider North East around it.

Can black streaking mean there's a bigger problem with the roofline?

Usually it's just algae and mould feeding on damp and organic debris, which a soft wash clears. Occasionally it points to a gutter overflow issue worth checking while we're up there.

Most customers pair it with a gutter clean while the access equipment is already up there, which keeps the combined price sensible and means cobwebs, streaking and blocked gutters all get sorted in one visit.

The good news is that uPVC roofline responds well to the right clean. A soft wash lifts cobwebs, dust and algae, kills the mould and algae at the root with a biocide treatment, and brings faded, chalky boards back close to their original white.

What affects the price

Access, the number of elevations, roofline height and condition all feed into the final figure, so what we quote for a straightforward bungalow in Shiney Row won't match a taller period property with awkward access. We always confirm a firm price before starting.

Single-storey property	typically £70–£120
Two-storey property	typically £100–£180
Difficult access / extension needed	typically £150–£280
Multiple properties or a terrace run	quoted per property on site

Working safely at height on your roofline

Soffits and fascias sit right at gutter height, so most of the work is done from ground level with extension poles, or from a stable platform where reach genuinely requires it — we avoid leaning ladders against uPVC that can flex and crack under pressure.

We're asbestos awareness trained, which matters on older properties where soffit boards or roofing materials may need identifying before any work starts, and spill management trained so biocide is applied and contained properly around plants, paths and drains.

Low-pressure soft wash equipment

We use a low-pressure soft wash system rather than a domestic pressure washer, which lets us clean thoroughly without forcing water behind boards or stressing uPVC joints and seals that have gone brittle with age.
