Materials & methods we'd use here
Most Tamerton Foliot properties we treat have painted render and stone walls and a slate and concrete tile roof. That changes a few of the choices we'd make.
- Method
Quaternary ammonium surfactant added so biocide clings to your painted render and stone elevation in Tamerton Foliot
- Method
Low-volume rinse from a high-flow tank - critical on the softer finishes you see across stone cottages and 1960s detached
- Method
Suitable for K-Rend, Weber and silicone renders — common on the newer rural village properties around PL5
- Method
Painted brickwork treated by dwell-and-rinse only on rural village terraces - no rotary
