Sea air keeps algae growth wetter for longer, which is why north-facing walls darken so quickly. Most weeks we're up and down the B3247 between Seaton and the next booking. Exposure here is very exposed - 14.5 miles from our PL3 base makes turnaround short.

We work the softer end of the pressure range by default, and only step up when a surface genuinely wants it. The van carries hot and cold, softwash rig, vac pole and full drain protection so most jobs don't need a return trip. Reviews are on Google, Facebook and Checkatrade — a mix that makes it harder to game the numbers. Every visit finishes with a five-minute tidy — sand brushed in, debris bagged, tap turned off. Pressure washing patios always finishes with a lawn edge tidy so borders don't end up sanded. Windows include the frames, the sills, the trickle vents and the cill drain holes, always. Every job carries a written scope, a written price and a written finish standard — no ambiguity. We keep bookings deliberately short in summer so a hot week doesn't back the diary up for a month. The most expensive part of any softwash is time on site, not the chemistry. We priority-book care-home and rental customers because their timelines are usually tightest. The van livery is deliberately low-key because half the neighbours have booked us the following month. Kiln-dried sand is bought in bulk pallets, which keeps the driveway top-up cost small at the invoice end. Fascia paint repair we don't do, but we'll flag it and hand you a shortlist of decorators we trust. Long-run gutters get flushed from both ends after clearing, not just one end. The wall pump gets calibrated at the top of each visit, not once per job — it drifts otherwise.

Where it usually starts in Seaton

  • Damp patches behind gutter at the rear, almost always wet after a very-exposed week in Seaton - 14.5 miles from PL3 - something we quote weekly in this postcode.
  • Soffit staining where overflow has run all winter on coastal village properties - at roughly 50.359,-4.402 - worth flagging on enquiries this side of town.
  • Drip-line erosion in borders below the worst-blocked sections in Seaton - on painted render and pebbledash - a job that suits softwash first, pressure never.
  • Half-round gutters sagging where bracket spacing wasn't right on coastal village stock - across concrete tile and slate - handled from a pole not a ladder wherever we can.
  • Outlet boxes overflowing during Seaton's heaviest very-exposed winter showers - on seafront bungalows stock - worth combining with the gutters if they're due at the same time.

The method that suits Seaton

  1. 1Camera inspection before and after every length - sent in a single PDF for Seaton customers (on painted render and pebbledash - a job that suits softwash first, pressure never).
  2. 2Hopper heads and box gutters cleared as standard on coastal village layouts (across concrete tile and slate - handled from a pole not a ladder wherever we can).
  3. 3Downpipe inlets water-tested - matters more on coastal village stock with hidden internal runs (on seafront bungalows stock - worth combining with the gutters if they're due at the same time).
  4. 4Bracket spacing checked during the clean on older seafront bungalows and modern detached (at very exposed exposure - the elevation that always dictates the price).
  5. 5Outlet boxes flushed at the end of every visit on coastal village properties (in the Cornwall Council patch - one of the calls we get most in the wetter half of the year).
