Benefits of Cleaning your Rendered Property
Newly rendered buildings are certainly great looking but, gradually, rendering dulls as contaminants, moss and algae take hold, leaving the building stained, filthy and tired-looking. We can reverse this ageing with a safe and highly-effective outdoor cleansing process, utilising the latest tools and methods to carefully remove dirt and build-up; rejuvenating your property without harming it or its surface finishes in any way.
Over the years, we have developed a strong reputation for effectively getting rid of moss and algae from a variety of rendered surfaces on commercial, industrial, educational and domestic buildings. The advantages of proper render cleaning can not be undervalued. For your render cleaning works, pick a respectable business that can demonstrate they have effectively carried out render cleaning projects to a high standard.
Softwashing Rendered Surfaces
We use only the best and most tested chemicals to clean your rendered property in Stockport. The procedure starts by treating outside walls before beginning an extensive clean of the render using our expert softwashing devices to gently get rid of discolourations, marks and algae. Leaving your property looking as good as new.
Removal of algae and moss from discoloured renders isn’t as straightforward as it might appear. Many building owners put their trust in local builders or contractors to carry out the works but without the correct competence, this can show to be a pricey mistake.
Various kinds of render should be appropriately treated prior to any cleaning work begins, successfully exterminating spores to prevent regrowth. Once the render surface has been appropriately prepared we then use steam under low pressure to gently remove any algae which remains after the treatment while also lifting away dirt and pollutants. Once the render has been cleaned up effectively we can apply a protective sealant to further protect your property and extend the life of your k-rend or render surface.

Frequently asked questions about our Render Cleaning in Stockport
How long will it take?
To give an accurate time, we would need to know to assess the property in some way but for an average job the work is often completed in one to two working days, although a follow-up visit may be required on some occasions.
Do we need to be in the property while the works are carried out?
No, not at all. The only thing we will need is access to water so you can leave your house and come back after work to your freshly cleaned property.
Why is soft washing better than pressure washing?
Soft washing does more than clean; it exterminates the bacterium that causes the discolouration in the first place with no need for dangerous and damaging high-pressure washing. Pressure washing cleans off the surface but quickly returns. Furthermore, soft wash doesn’t use harmful high pressure.
Can you repair damaged Render?
The quick answer is yes! We have fully qualified Rendering specialists within the business that repair and patch damaged Render. All the major rendering suppliers ensure our work and come with the supplier’s guarantee. We can even provide a full rendering service on request with competitive pricing.
The Dangers of DIY Render Cleaning
Who doesn’t like a little DIY? After all, Google and social networks will provide you with the answers, solutions, and DIY guides for any problem you desire.
Render cleaning is not simple. It needs technical equipment like low and high pressure washers and the knowledge to utilise them without harming your outside rendered walls.
If you do not understand how to clean render, there is only so much assistance you can draw from Google. The most obvious error individuals make when cleaning render themselves is utilising a power washer when they do not have any experience using it correctly, thus causing further damage or even injury.
Regular property owners are not knowledgeable about the various types of render products. They don’t understand about their building and construction material and what type of damage power washers and wrong cleaning products can make to the rendered surfaces.
Another error individuals make is Painting on coloured or white render, which will enhance the surface appearance, but it will also lock the wetness inside. It eventually results in fractures and disintegration.
And power washers like Karcher will just break or loosen up the render off your wall when used at high PSI levels. Do not forget the accidents and injuries that come with using high-pressure washers too.
We provide render cleaning services for all kinds of rendered surface areas throughout Stockport and all surrounding areas. Our cleaning professionals are experienced in dealing with power washers and low-pressure washers both. We remove pesky algae, lichen, and moss growth, leaving no trace of spores on your walls.
Our superior render cleaning options integrated with biocides and fungicides provide your render a complete revitalising treatment. It will increase its life span and make your rendered walls look brilliant and vibrant.
We also provide protective coverings for all kinds of render surfaces.
Capture the very first signs of damage in your render and keep their clean façade with our expert render cleaning company.
