Our SoftWash Services
What is render cleaning?
Render cleaning is the treatment and soft washing of render. Although generally considered to be low maintenance, render cleaning is a popular service offered throughout the UK. Render cleaning methods have greatly improved over the years. Modern render cleaning techniques and equipment have increased the safety and efficiency of Cumbria render cleaning.
Is render cleaning necessary?
For a number of reasons, yes. Over years, especially in damp climates such as Cumbria where there is a lot of vapour in the air, organic growth builds up on render. Because of this, render can begin to look a little worse for wear. Dark green and black stains and marks can make even the best looking buildings look dirty and rundown. So, when it comes to image and appearance, we’d say that render cleaning is important.
Whether you have render on your home or place of business, algae, mould, lichen, dirt, and other stains can really affect the look of your home in a negative way. Atmospheric pollution is another big contributor to filthy render. Freshly treated and cleaned render will certainly brighten up your property, restoring its original colour as much as possible. Many have been surprised to find out that their building was actually white and not brown after hiring professional render cleaners. Render cleaning has the ability to increase the curb appeal of your home or property and reflect well on your business.
Another reason Cumbria render cleaning is important is that it prolongs the life of your render. Prolonged exposure to organics and other dirt can begin to affect the integrity of render, causing long term damage. Neglected render will begin to crack and require professional care or even replacements. That is why it is imperative to get your render cleaned.
Render cleaning is also a much cheaper and effective alternative to painting render. Not only is the decision to paint over dirty render expensive, but it is a short-term fix. In fact, this solution could cause further damage. Even if you do decide you want to paint your render, we’d highly recommend having it cleaned first to avoid any complications and keep your render in its best condition possible.
So, is render cleaning necessary? Definitely. And we’re sure that you’ll be impressed and satisfied with the way your render will turn out without having to use a lick of paint. Render that is regularly cleaned and kept free from organic growth will provide you with an attractive property and fresh, healthy render. Scheduled cleans also prevent render from fading and losing its colour. We offer residential, commercial, and industrial render cleaning services in Cumbria.

What methods do we use?
It’s always vital to use the correct methods when it comes to render cleaning. Render can be greatly damaged if cleaned with highly pressurised water. This is why we use soft washing techniques that not only protect the render but clean it effectively and thoroughly. You should never pressure wash render otherwise it will cause long-term damage. Render cleaning is all about caring for render and restoring it back to its original state, not just blasting away stains as quickly as possible.
Our modern render cleaning techniques mean we can safely clean difficult-to-reach areas of your property from the ground. With our reach and wash techniques, we can effectively clean every part of the render on your property without having to use expensive and time-consuming scaffolding. You can see in our pictures how easy it is for us to reach tall and tricky areas on walls and even chimneys. After preparing the wall/s you want to be cleaned and their surroundings, we apply a biocide to kill organics and then we use low-pressurised steam to get rid of dirt and stains. These methods are perfectly safe and effective; used by most Cumbria render cleaners.
How do you remove algae from render?
When it comes to render, algae is almost always an issue. Why is that? Rendered walls create the perfect environment for algae to settle and spread. This is especially true in areas that are close to water, such as Cumbria. North and east-facing walls have less exposure to the sun, so you may see more algae on them. You may find that through the spring and summer months, algae growth seems to be boosted. This is because warmer and more humid conditions encourage algae growth.
As algae become more and more noticeable on your property, you may start to look up ways to remove and prevent algae from destroying the image of your home or business. These infections are not only unsightly but also bad for your render.
So then, what is the best way to remove algae? Before you start getting quotes to paint over your render, or looking to do it yourself, give professional render cleaning a go. As mentioned above, we use solutions that will effectively kill and stop future growth of not only algae, but other organic materials such as lichen, mould, spores, and mildew. Our specialised render cleaning solution will leave your render sparkling, free from ugly green stains. It will also protect your render. After the treatment, we will steam clean your render at low pressure to remove those final tough stains.
We guarantee that you will be impressed with the results of these modern render cleaning techniques. Render cleaning is far better for your render than painting over stains. Our treatments will also increase the health of your render, making it last for years to come, and keeping it bright and shining; algae-free.

How much is render cleaning?
The final quote you receive for render cleaning will really depend on just how much render you require to be cleaned. You can call us up for a quote for render cleaning. But, to give you some idea of how much you will be spending, the most common render treatment, and cleaning jobs will cost anywhere from £250-£550. Again, it depends on how much render you require to be cleaned. Of course, render on residential properties usually cost less to be cleaned, whereas commercial and industrial buildings will cost more.
The cost of getting your render cleaned professionally will look small compared to the alternative, that is, painting. And as we have discussed above, render cleaning provides far more benefits than painting over stains and dirt. Your building will look better than ever after receiving a render clean.
Getting your render regularly cleaned also offers the potential of increasing the value of your home or property and attracting customers to your place of business. It is commonly recognised that the state of your company’s building reflects on the company itself. So, having clean and sparkling stain-free render through our render cleaning services is the way to go!
How do you clean the different types of render?
There are many different types of render available today. Different brands of render contain various materials and require tailored treatment. Maintaining your render according to its brand will ensure lasting render and good looking buildings.
There are a number of render types on the market Weber, K-Rend, Monocouche, and silicone are the most common ones. You may be hesitant to get coloured render treated and cleaned. But fear not. Our render cleaning services offer to protect, preserve, and improve your render, not harm or damage it. Our treatments work well on any kind of render, providing the best results.
For heavily-stained render, it may require a little tougher treatment, maybe even a follow-up clean, but we are confident that no stain, algae, or dirt will be able to hold up against our powerful, yet gentle, render treatments. Fungi, spores, and mildew will be a thing of the past.
How often should you clean render?
This depends on where your property is positioned. If you live in a cold, dry climate, you may require less regular render cleans. However, if you live in a humid and warm area, maybe even close to water and damp, you will require frequent render cleans. How frequent? It’s up to you. You can monitor how quickly algae, stains, mould, and lichen builds up on your walls.
Some get their render cleaned once a year. Others do it more regularly, others less. So, there’s no general rule as to how often you should clean your render. But, we always recommend frequent care and maintenance for your render to keep it in its best condition. Contact us today for a quote for render cleaning.
