Render softwashing in Roby

Plenty of Roby’s 1930s semis carry original pebbledash between the brick bays, and the modern infill around Bowring Park adds smooth K rend and painted render to the mix. Textured coatings trap spores, and with so many mature trees keeping walls in shade, green streaks show up first on north-facing gables and anywhere a hedge sits close to the house. We clean render with a low-pressure soft wash and a biocide only, because pressure washing dashed or thin-coat render damages the finish.

Render softwashing across Roby

Render only ever gets a soft wash from us, low pressure and the right treatment, so the coating stays sound while the staining fades and dies.

How much does render softwashing cost in Roby?

There is no set price list, because what you pay comes down to how many elevations need doing, how high the wall goes, and whether the growth is surface algae or staining that has soaked into the render.

What is soft washing?

Soft washing cleans a surface with low pressure water and specialist cleaning solutions instead of brute force. The solution kills the algae, mould and lichen at the root, then a gentle rinse washes it all away. It’s the standard method for render, pebbledash, painted walls and any other finish that high pressure would damage.

Why can’t you just pressure wash render?

High pressure scars the texture of coloured renders like K Rend and monocouche, knocks the stones out of pebbledash, peels paint and forces water through hairline cracks into the wall behind. The marks it leaves are permanent. Soft washing gets the staining off without any of that risk.
