Crownhill's wall cleaning & softwash specialists
There's a reason wall cleaning & softwash sits near the top of every Crownhill homeowner's list once spring arrives. Newer estates have shallow gutters and shorter downpipes that block faster than people expect.
What's actually different about Crownhill
There's a reason wall cleaning & softwash sits near the top of every Crownhill homeowner's list once spring arrives. Newer estates have shallow gutters and shorter downpipes that block faster than people expect.
Junction of the A386 and the A38 on Plymouth's northern shoulder, which shapes how exterior cleaning here actually plays out. We're frequently in and around PL6, so booking-day flexibility is easier than people expect.
What good wall cleaning & softwash looks like here
- 1Softwash strength dialled for render, pebbledash and brick - not the mix we'd use on smooth modern render
- 2Two passes on the Derriford-facing elevation where exposed weather drives the worst staining
- 3Lower biocide concentration around old mortar joints on modern estate properties in PL6
- 4Pre-rinse on plant borders typical of modern estate gardens before any product goes up
- 5Pressure-tested rinse line so we never overshoot fragile render, pebbledash and brick
Materials & methods we'd use here
Most Crownhill properties we treat have render, pebbledash and brick walls and a concrete tile roof. That changes a few of the choices we'd make.
- Method
Sodium hypochlorite mixed to a strength suitable for render, pebbledash and brick - never neat on modern estate stock
- Method
Quaternary ammonium surfactant added so biocide clings to your render, pebbledash and brick elevation in Crownhill
- Method
Suitable for K-Rend, Weber and silicone renders — common on the newer modern estate properties around PL6
- Method
Lime render handled with a half-strength mix and a longer dwell — important on older Crownhill stock
Typical problems on Crownhill properties
- Streaking down render, pebbledash and brick that's worse on the Derriford-facing elevation than the rest of the house
- Algae returning fast on shaded walls thanks to Crownhill's exposed setting
- Pebbledash gone blotchy where a gutter has overflowed all season on 1960s–70s semis and newer infill
- Surface lichen on the south side of render, pebbledash and brick - common on modern estate stock in PL6
- Render mottling where chimney flashings leak slowly onto render, pebbledash and brick
