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.

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.

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.

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

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.

A lot of people assume a jet wash or a scrub with bleach will sort a grubby roofline in South Shields, but pressure can crack ageing uPVC joints and bleach only ever knocks the algae back — it's usually growing again within a season because the spores were never actually killed.

Keeping on top of it with a regular clean

A soffit and fascia clean every year or two keeps cobwebs, dust and early algae from ever becoming the kind of stubborn black streaking that needs a restoration treatment to shift. It's a smaller, cheaper job done regularly than a big one done rarely.

Former colliery terraces and older housing stock

The former colliery terraces found around parts of South Shields tend to have narrow plots and low eaves, which keeps the soffits close to ground level but also close to path traffic, planting and passing footfall — all of which add to the dust and cobweb buildup over a year.

Georgian and Victorian houses in Westoe village. on streets like these often means shared guttering runs between properties, so we're careful to treat boundary sections consistently rather than leaving an obvious join in the clean.

Soft wash vs pressure washing your roofline

A pressure washer looks like the obvious tool for grubby uPVC, but the force needed to shift ingrained algae can crack panel joints, force water behind fascia boards and strip the factory finish, leaving the surface more porous and quicker to grime up again.

Our soft wash uses a fraction of the pressure combined with a biocide treatment, so the growth is killed rather than just knocked loose, the boards stay intact, and the clean lasts considerably longer than a pressure wash alone.

Within easy reach across Tyne and Wear

Wallsend, Walker, Fulwell and Roker all sit within our normal working radius, so a job in South Shields is rarely a one-off trip out — we're usually in the wider area within the same week.

Working on narrower or terraced streets

Older terraced streets around South Shields 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.
