Pressure Washing - covering Liskeard and the PL14 area

There's a reason pressure washing sits near the top of every Liskeard homeowner's list once spring arrives. Hilltop positions catch more weather, which means more algae on every sheltered face.

What's actually different about Liskeard

There's a reason pressure washing sits near the top of every Liskeard homeowner's list once spring arrives. Hilltop positions catch more weather, which means more algae on every sheltered face.

Old stannary town just off the A38 in south-east Cornwall, which shapes how exterior cleaning here actually plays out. If you can see Saltash from the end of your road, we cover you.

What good pressure washing looks like here

  1. 1Hot wash on greasy areas - useful around the bin store on market town properties
  2. 2Detergent dwell before any pressure on stone walls common to granite terraces and Victorian villas
  3. 3Drain protection in place before trigger pulls - matters near A38 run-off
  4. 4Final rinse from the high side so debris flushes downhill on sloped Liskeard sites
  5. 5Salt-loaded surfaces hot-washed twice on exposed elevations in Liskeard

Materials & methods we'd use here

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

  • Method

    Range of nozzles from 0° to 65° - the right tip for market town hard surfaces

  • Method

    Biodegradable degreaser for oil and traffic film along A38

  • Method

    Composite, hardwood and softwood decking all done with grain-aligned passes - common on granite terraces and Victorian villas

  • Method

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

Typical problems on Liskeard properties

  • Brick boundary walls along A38 carrying years of road film
  • Render plinths and lower courses on market town properties showing black tide-marks
  • Fence panels and pergolas left to weather-bake at Liskeard's exposed
  • Outdoor kitchen and BBQ areas grease-loaded on granite terraces and Victorian villas
  • Pool surrounds and hot-tub decks slippery from algal film on granite terraces and Victorian villas
