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 prove the gutters were actually cleared?

Yes — we use a pole-mounted camera to photograph before and after, so you've got proof of what's come out rather than having to take our word for it.

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.

Will the cobwebs just come straight back?

They will build up again over time — it's a natural part of any exterior. Regular cleaning every year or two keeps them, along with dust and algae, from ever getting properly established.

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 Washington and the wider North East around it.

We don't just rinse the surface. A biocide treatment kills the mould and algae at the root, so the boards stay cleaner for noticeably longer than after a quick hose-down, and genuinely chalky or faded uPVC gets a restoration pass to bring the colour back.

We soft wash uPVC roofline across Washington and the surrounding Tyne and Wear area, killing growth at the root rather than just knocking it back, and restoring chalky, faded boards close to their original colour.

Victorian terraces and original timber-effect boarding

Many of the Victorian terraces around Washington 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.

1960s-70s new town development laid out as numbered villages/districts. 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.

Homes & businesses

Industrial and warehouse units

Units around Armstrong Industrial Estate often carry more airborne dust and grime than a typical residential street, which shows up fastest on pale uPVC roofline. We're equipped to cover larger runs of soffit and fascia efficiently across a full unit or terrace of units.

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.

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.

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.

When restoration is needed

Chalky or badly faded uPVC needs more than a standard soft wash to bring the colour back, so restoration work is quoted as an addition to the base clean rather than included as standard. It's worth it on boards that have gone visibly grey or dull.

Standard soft wash

typically £80–£160

Restoration, single elevation

from around £40–£70

Restoration, full property

typically £120–£220 extra

Clean plus full restoration

typically £220–£380

How we set up on site

Soft wash equipment and extension poles mean we rarely need scaffolding or a cherry picker for standard roofline work. Where parking or access is tight, we're happy to talk through it beforehand so there's no surprise on the day.
