What we see on Bittaford properties

When neighbours start asking who did your wall cleaning & softwash, that's usually a Bittaford homeowner mid-project with us. Small A38-side village under the Dartmoor viaduct, which shapes how wall cleaning & softwash on granite and render and natural slate actually plays out around PL21.

Septic-served properties make it worth thinking about runoff before any cleaning starts. We're frequently in and around PL21, so booking-day flexibility is easier than people expect. Exposure here is exposed - 11.7 miles from our PL3 base makes turnaround short.

We aim to send the written quote inside the same evening you get in touch, and we don't chase you afterwards. If we spot something on the visit that's cheaper for you to sort a different way, we'll say so. Callouts get batched into the same run so pricing stays sensible and turnaround stays short. Two of us live within twenty minutes of the yard, which is why booking flexibility is easier than customers expect. Reviews are on Google, Facebook and Checkatrade — a mix that makes it harder to game the numbers. We keep two vans on the road, which is why illness or weather rarely pushes a booking more than a day or two. The single biggest cause of re-growth is skipping the biocide dwell, and we don't skip it. Our repeat rate for annual bookings sits north of eighty percent, which is where our diary planning starts. The vac pole extends to forty feet which covers the vast majority of domestic three-storey gutter work. Waste from moss removal gets bagged, weighed and taken to a licensed green-waste facility. Runoff is diverted with drain bungs where soakaways feed straight into wildlife ponds. We priority-book care-home and rental customers because their timelines are usually tightest. Stone plinths get a rinse-only pass at the end of every wall softwash, no product left on stone. The office answers between eight and seven six days a week — we don't hide behind an inbox. Materials data sheets are available on request for any product we use on any of our work.

The method that suits Bittaford

  1. 1Pre-rinse on plant borders typical of rural village gardens before any product goes up (11.7 miles from PL3 - the sort of thing owners notice from the road first).
  2. 2Window pre-wet so over-spray rinses clean - important on older glass in Victorian terraces and railway-era cottages (at roughly 50.404,-3.869 - quoted from photos in most cases, no doorstep survey).
  3. 3Plinth and damp-course area always rinsed last on rural village stock in Bittaford (on granite and render - the difference between a two-year finish and a five-year one).
  4. 4Spot-treatment on lichen patches before the main softwash on granite and render (across natural slate - a job where getting the order right matters more than the products).
  5. 5Pressure-tested rinse line so we never overshoot fragile granite and render (on Victorian terraces stock - the sort of clean that pays for itself in kerb appeal).
