Sea air keeps algae growth wetter for longer, which is why north-facing walls darken so quickly. Crews are based 14.8 miles away in PL3, so callouts to Bigbury are short. We batch Bigbury bookings with aveton gifford runs along B3392.

Most enquiries we take are from owners who've been thinking about it for a while and finally caught the right week for the weather. We work the softer end of the pressure range by default, and only step up when a surface genuinely wants it. There's no minimum charge to look at a job — we'll walk around it, quote it and leave the ball with you. If your neighbour books at the same time we drop the callout portion — genuinely worth mentioning next door. Winter bookings are quieter, so lead times drop from two weeks to a few days between November and February. Second-home owners tend to book us on annual visits with a photo pack rather than being on site. Sub-zero mornings we wait until 10am to start softwash — the biocide simply doesn't work well below freezing. Roof re-bed work gets its own dedicated day — nobody wants a wet roof left open overnight. Waste from moss removal gets bagged, weighed and taken to a licensed green-waste facility. We priority-book care-home and rental customers because their timelines are usually tightest. Kiln-dried sand is bought in bulk pallets, which keeps the driveway top-up cost small at the invoice end. Small drone footage is available on request for high-level roof inspections without ladder time. The kit list gets photographed on setup so nothing accidentally leaves site in the wrong van. Conservatory glass roofs get a two-pass rinse because the profile holds pooled water otherwise. The office answers between eight and seven six days a week — we don't hide behind an inbox.

Common issues we see in Bigbury

  • Saplings literally growing in front gutters of older seafront villas and 1930s bungalows - on seafront villas stock - something we quote weekly in this postcode.
  • Soffit staining where overflow has run all winter on coastal village properties - at very exposed exposure - the reason we keep this round on a tight schedule.
  • Hopper heads packed with leaves from mature trees across Bigbury - in the South Hams District Council patch - worth catching before the next wet stretch.
  • Drip-line erosion in borders below the worst-blocked sections in Bigbury - 14.8 miles from PL3 - why photos beat phone tag for this kind of work.
  • Outlet boxes overflowing during Bigbury's heaviest very-exposed winter showers - at roughly 50.286,-3.895 - usually easier once the outside taps are back on in April.
