Pressure Washing on a leafy suburb property in Plympton, Devon

Devon · PL7

Pressure Washing that suits Plympton

Plympton weather does a number on exterior surfaces, and pressure washing is usually the first thing to suffer. Mature trees mean more shade, more sap and more north-facing growth on the elevations that never dry out.

Why Plympton matters for this kind of work

Plympton weather does a number on exterior surfaces, and pressure washing is usually the first thing to suffer. Mature trees mean more shade, more sap and more north-facing growth on the elevations that never dry out.

Old market town that now sits east of the A38 inside Plymouth, which shapes how exterior cleaning here actually plays out. Working out of PL7 we're rarely more than 4.6 miles from a Plympton job.

How we'd approach this in Plympton

  1. 1Hot wash on greasy areas - useful around the bin store on leafy suburb properties
  2. 2Drain protection in place before trigger pulls - matters near A38 run-off
  3. 3Surface-by-surface order so the elevation most visible from Plymouth City Centre is done first
  4. 4Pressure dialled down at the perimeter to protect lawn edges on leafy suburb gardens
  5. 5Final rinse from the high side so debris flushes downhill on sloped Plympton sites

Materials & methods we'd use here

Most Plympton properties we treat have painted brick, render and natural stone walls and a mix of slate in old town and concrete tile on estates roof. That changes a few of the choices we'd make.

  • Method

    Range of nozzles from 0° to 65° - the right tip for leafy suburb hard surfaces

  • Method

    Biodegradable degreaser for oil and traffic film along A38

  • Method

    Drain covers and gully gratings deployed before any trigger pull on leafy suburb layouts

  • Method

    Composite, hardwood and softwood decking all done with grain-aligned passes - common on Georgian townhouses in St Maurice and 1970s estates
