How we'd approach this in Landrake

  1. 1Two passes on the Saltash-facing elevation where exposed weather drives the worst staining
  2. 2Window pre-wet so over-spray rinses clean - important on older glass in stone cottages and 1970s detached
  3. 3Plinth and damp-course area always rinsed last on rural village stock in Landrake
  4. 4Reduced dwell time near painted timber on stone cottages and 1970s detached
  5. 5Pressure-tested rinse line so we never overshoot fragile granite and painted render

Materials & methods we'd use here

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

  • Method

    Quaternary ammonium surfactant added so biocide clings to your granite and painted render elevation in Landrake

  • Method

    Low-volume rinse from a high-flow tank - critical on the softer finishes you see across stone cottages and 1970s detached

  • Method

    Suitable for K-Rend, Weber and silicone renders — common on the newer rural village properties around PL12

  • Method

    Lime render handled with a half-strength mix and a longer dwell — important on older Landrake stock
