Render softwashing across St Helens
Soft washing is the only way we clean render: the treatment soaks in, kills the growth at the root and rinses off at low pressure with the coating unmarked.
Render softwashing in St Helens
Pebbledash is everywhere in St Helens, covering street after street of interwar corporation semis, while plenty of terraces wear painted render and the new estates on former industrial land are finished in coloured coatings like K Rend. All of it feeds algae when it stays damp, and in this town the shaded gables rarely dry out properly between October and April. High pressure wrecks render, so every rendered wall we touch gets a soft wash and nothing stronger.
Common problems with St Helens render
Green streaks running down pebbledashed gables on the corporation estates

Render softwashing in St Helens: your questions
Do you cover St Helens?
Yes, St Helens and the WA10, WA9, WA11 postcodes is on our regular patch, about 15 minutes out from our base in Prescot.
How much does render softwashing cost in St Helens?
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.
Can you remove the red and orange staining on my render?
Yes. That staining is an airborne algae and it’s very common on modern render across Merseyside. Soft washing kills it and the colour lifts away with the rinse. Stubborn black spot lichen can take a second treatment, and we’ll tell you before we start if yours is likely to need one.
Will the cleaning solutions harm my garden or pets?
We soak the surrounding plants and grass with clean water before we start, cover anything delicate and rinse everything down again when we finish. Keep pets indoors while we work and the garden is back in use the same day.
