No. Bleach only bleaches the colour out of algae and mould rather than killing it, so it tends to return quickly. We use a proper biocide treatment instead, which kills growth at the root.

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.

Do I need to be home?

Not necessarily, as long as we can access the areas that need cleaning. We're happy to arrange access details in advance.

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 Sunderland and the wider North East around it.

City of Sunderland · SR1, SR2, SR3, SR4, SR5, SR6 · 5.4 miles east of our Washington base

Soffit and fascia cleaning in Sunderland typically runs from around £90 for a straightforward semi up to £200-plus for a larger detached property, and it's one of the better-value jobs on the outside of the house — a couple of hours' work that changes how the whole roofline looks from the street.

A lot of people assume a jet wash or a scrub with bleach will sort a grubby roofline in Sunderland, 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.

Roofline in Sunderland takes a battering it doesn't always show straight away. Damp North East air, sheltered eaves that never quite dry out, and the odd overhanging tree all combine to leave soffits and fascias carrying cobwebs, algae and black streaking long before the rest of the house looks in need of attention.

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.

Hand tools for the fiddly bits

Soft brushes and hand tools get into soffit vents, corners and behind downpipes where a hose alone won't reach, clearing cobwebs and debris that a wash-only approach tends to miss.

Combined with a gutter clean

Most customers have soffits and fascias cleaned alongside a gutter clear-out, since the access is already set up. Combining the two usually works out better value than booking them separately.

Gutter clean only	typically £60–£100
Soffit & fascia clean only	typically £80–£160
Both combined	typically £120–£220
Add uPVC restoration	from around £40 extra per elevation

Homes & businesses

Shopfronts and retail units

Grubby soffits and streaked fascias above a shopfront near Doxford International Business Park don't do much for how the business looks to passing custom. We clean to a standard that holds up under close inspection, not just from across the street.

Coastal exposure and salt-laden air

At around 1.4 miles from the coast, properties nearer that end of our patch pick up salt-laden air on top of the usual damp North East conditions, which tends to accelerate both algae growth and the chalking of older uPVC.

A biocide soft wash handles the growth, and where the boards themselves have dulled from years of coastal weather, a restoration treatment brings back a finish closer to new.

Soffit & Fascia Cleaning in Sunderland — common questions

We cover soffit and fascia cleaning across Sunderland and the surrounding area from our Washington base, using soft wash and biocide methods that are safe on uPVC and effective on the growth causing it to look tired.

If your roofline in Sunderland is due a clean, get in touch with Trevor for a quote — most jobs can be booked in within a couple of weeks.

A grubby roofline is one of the first things people notice about a house, and left untreated the growth causing black streaking just gets more established. A soft wash sorts it properly rather than papering over the problem for a season.

Chalky, faded uPVC? We can fix that.

We're fully insured, biocide trained, and use low-pressure soft wash methods that clean thoroughly without risking your uPVC. If the boards have gone chalky or faded, we can restore them too. Get in touch for a straightforward quote.
