Pressure Washing - covering Thurlestone and the TQ7 area

The best time to book pressure washing in Thurlestone is the same week you start thinking about it. Sea air keeps algae growth wetter for longer, which is why north-facing walls darken so quickly.

Why we built a Thurlestone page for pressure washing

The best time to book pressure washing in Thurlestone is the same week you start thinking about it. Sea air keeps algae growth wetter for longer, which is why north-facing walls darken so quickly.

Coastal village facing the arched Thurlestone Rock, which shapes how exterior cleaning here actually plays out. If you can see Malborough from the end of your road, we cover you.

What good pressure washing looks like here

  1. 1Lower pressure and a fan tip on softer surfaces typical of coastal village layouts in TQ7
  2. 2Drain protection in place before trigger pulls - matters near local lanes off A381 run-off
  3. 3Surface-by-surface order so the elevation most visible from Malborough is done first
  4. 4Pressure dialled down at the perimeter to protect lawn edges on coastal village gardens
  5. 5Detergent pre-spray on shaded fences typical of coastal village layouts

Materials & methods we'd use here

Most Thurlestone properties we treat have painted render, cob and stone walls and a thatch, slate and concrete tile roof. That changes a few of the choices we'd make.

  • Method

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

  • Method

    Biodegradable degreaser for oil and traffic film along local lanes off A381

  • Method

    Composite, hardwood and softwood decking all done with grain-aligned passes - common on thatched cottages and 1930s villas

  • Method

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

What usually triggers the call in Thurlestone

  • Decking turning slippery green every shoulder season at Thurlestone's very-exposed exposure
  • Render plinths and lower courses on coastal village properties showing black tide-marks
  • Garden walls and outbuildings on thatched cottages and 1930s villas losing finish under algae
  • Slimy stone steps on coastal village layouts where they shade out
  • Concrete paths going dark green where they pass under shrub cover in Thurlestone
