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.

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.

Soffit and Fascia Cleaning, Willington

Willington soffit and fascia specialists. Soft wash cleaning removes cobwebs, algae and black streaking, and restores faded uPVC. Call 07501 060609 today.

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.

Cobwebs build up behind the fascia and along the soffit vents through autumn and winter, and by the time spring arrives in Willington they've usually collected a good coating of dust and grime with them. Algae and mould get comfortable in the same damp, shaded spot, and black streaking down the fascia tends to be at its worst just as everyone starts noticing the outside of the house again.

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.

Within easy reach across County Durham

Spennymoor, Bishop Auckland, Ushaw Moor and Langley Park all sit within our normal working radius, so a job in Willington is rarely a one-off trip out — we're usually in the wider area within the same week.

Homeowners

For homeowners who want the roofline looking its best

A clean roofline is one of the quickest ways to lift how a house looks from the street, and it's a job most homeowners in Willington only think about once the black streaking or chalky uPVC is hard to ignore. We'll clear cobwebs, dust and growth and leave the boards looking properly cared for.

New-build and modern estate roofline

Roofline on newer estates around Willington still gets cobwebs, dust and the early stages of black streaking — it's just a few years behind the older housing stock, since the uPVC is newer and hasn't started chalking yet.

Getting ahead of it with a soft wash and biocide treatment now, before growth is established, is genuinely easier and quicker than waiting until the streaking is stubborn.

Soffit & Fascia Cleaning in Willington — common questions

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.

We clear cobwebs and debris by hand, apply a biocide treatment at low pressure to kill algae and mould at the root, rinse the boards clean, and follow up with a restoration treatment on any uPVC that's gone chalky or faded.

It's a relatively small job with a disproportionate effect on how a property looks from the street, especially when paired with a gutter clean while the access is already set up.
