Honest pressure washing for Duloe homes

The best time to book pressure washing in Duloe is the same week you start thinking about it. Single-track lanes, tree cover and damp valley air create the conditions algae loves.

Why we built a Duloe page for pressure washing

The best time to book pressure washing in Duloe is the same week you start thinking about it. Single-track lanes, tree cover and damp valley air create the conditions algae loves.

Hillside village between Liskeard and Looe with a prehistoric stone circle, which shapes how exterior cleaning here actually plays out. Crews are based 18.2 miles away in PL3, so callouts to Duloe are short.

What good pressure washing looks like here

  1. 1Hot wash on greasy areas - useful around the bin store on rural village properties
  2. 2Drain protection in place before trigger pulls - matters near B3254 run-off
  3. 3Pressure dialled down at the perimeter to protect lawn edges on rural village gardens
  4. 4Grout joints checked before any pressure on flagged areas of stone cottages and farmhouses
  5. 5Salt-loaded surfaces hot-washed twice on exposed elevations in Duloe

Materials & methods we'd use here

Most Duloe properties we treat have granite and painted render walls and a Cornish slate roof. That changes a few of the choices we'd make.

  • Method

    5 GPM hot-water machine - heat dialled to the surface, important on granite and painted render

  • Method

    Range of nozzles from 0° to 65° - the right tip for rural village hard surfaces

  • Method

    Composite, hardwood and softwood decking all done with grain-aligned passes - common on stone cottages and farmhouses

  • Method

    Hot wash with detergent dwell for the exposed-loaded hard surfaces in Duloe

What usually triggers the call in Duloe

  • Decking turning slippery green every shoulder season at Duloe's exposed exposure
  • Brick boundary walls along B3254 carrying years of road film
  • Garden walls and outbuildings on stone cottages and farmhouses losing finish under algae
  • Composite cladding clouded by algae across newer rural village stock
  • Retaining walls heavy with green growth in Duloe's exposed air
