Your trusted, local experts delivering quality workmanship and lasting protection for your home across Winsford and the wider Cheshire West region.
Block paving, Indian sandstone, concrete, imprinted concrete, slabs, tarmac and natural stone all clean up differently, so we match the method to the surface rather than blasting everything at the same pressure. Block paving and slabs are cleaned with a flat-surface rotary head that holds an even pressure across the whole area, so you get a consistent finish with no zebra-striping from a hand lance. Once it is clean and dry we re-sand block paving joints with kiln-dried sand (the sand is what locks the blocks and stops weeds and movement), and for an extra step we can apply a breathable sealer that slows down re-greening, suppresses weed growth and makes future cleaning far easier. Edges, steps and awkward corners are detailed by hand. Oil stains, tyre marks and lichen spotting are treated rather than just rinsed.
This is where being a roofing firm matters. A roof should never be hit with a high-pressure lance, the pressure strips the protective surface off concrete tiles, drives water up under the laps, and can crack or dislodge tiles and ridge bedding, taking years off the roof's life. We soft wash instead: the moss and debris is scraped and cleared by hand from the scaffold or roof ladders, then the whole roof is treated with a biocide that kills the moss, algae and lichen at the root over the following weeks so it does not grow straight back. Because we are up there anyway, we check the tiles, ridge, valleys, flashings and gutters at the same time and flag anything that needs attention before it becomes a leak, with photos. If you only need the gutters cleared, we do that as a standalone job too.
Painted and textured render, pebbledash, K-Rend and silicone render go green and black on north-facing and shaded elevations across Cheshire's damp climate. These get a soft wash and biocide treatment, never a high-pressure lance, which would blow the render off the wall. Brick, stone and garden walls are cleaned to suit the masonry and repointed where the survey shows it is needed (we are builders as well as roofers). Timber decking is cleaned at a controlled pressure that lifts the algae and grime without furring up or gouging the grain, and we can treat or oil it afterwards on request. Fencing, conservatory roofs, cladding and paths all fall under the same job, so most properties get the full exterior done in one visit.
Most exterior cleaning is quoted fixed-price after a quick look at the property or from clear photos you send over, no deposit and no charge if you decide not to proceed. The price includes our own water and power where access allows, all detergents and biocides, full clear-up and rinse-down of the surrounding areas, and disposal of the moss and debris we bring down. We work tidy: cars, doors, windows and planting are protected before we start. Larger driveways, full-house render washes and roof cleans that need access equipment are priced individually after a survey. We are fully insured for public liability and send the certificate with every quote. Call 01244 727509 or use the form below for a free quote.
Pressure washing across these key Cheshire and North West locations.
A high-pressure lance absolutely can, which is why we never use one on a roof. High pressure strips the protective surface off the tiles, forces water under the laps and can crack tiles and dislodge ridge bedding. We clear the moss by hand and apply a biocide that kills it at the root, the safe method that protects the life of the roof. Driveways and patios are a different surface and do take controlled high-pressure cleaning.
Not for a long time if it is treated properly. Just rinsing a surface clean leaves the spores behind and it re-greens within months. We apply a biocide that kills the moss, algae and lichen at the root, so regrowth is slowed for a couple of years or more. On driveways and patios a breathable sealer slows it further still.
Yes. After cleaning and once the paving is dry, we brush kiln-dried sand back into the joints, which is what stabilises the blocks and keeps weeds out. Sealing is an optional extra that suppresses weeds, slows re-greening and makes future cleaning much easier, we will quote it alongside the clean so you can choose.
Yes, with a soft wash and biocide rather than high pressure, which would damage the render. It is the right method for K-Rend, silicone render, pebbledash and painted masonry, all common on shaded Cheshire elevations that go green and black.
Yes, gutter clearing is available as a standalone job, and it is included as a check whenever we are cleaning the roof. We clear the debris, flush the run and downpipes, and flag any leaks or sagging while we are up there.
It depends on the area and the surface, a single driveway is a very different job to a full-house render wash or a roof clean needing access equipment. We give a fixed written price after a quick look or from photos, with no deposit and no charge if you do not go ahead.
