Bungalows take the worst of it because there's nowhere for water to go but the wall itself. We tend to batch Wembury bookings with jobs in Plymstock the same week. We batch Wembury bookings with plymstock runs along Wembury Road.
There's no doorstep pressure at any point in the process, and no fake deadline to sign a quote. 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. Winter bookings are quieter, so lead times drop from two weeks to a few days between November and February. We'll write down exactly what's included and, more importantly, what isn't — no wiggle room on the invoice. Detergents are biodegradable and lawns are pre-wetted before biocide goes near anything green. Access photos help more than measurements when you're getting a first quote back from us. Parking is where a lot of jobs go slow, so we ask about it up front rather than turn up and hope. Pressure washing patios always finishes with a lawn edge tidy so borders don't end up sanded. Fresh brush heads go on the pole for every glazing job over five years old. Roof access ladders are inspected each morning and swapped out at the first sign of wear. The most expensive part of any softwash is time on site, not the chemistry. Traffic-film patches on driveways get a hot detergent pre-wash before any surface cleaner touches them. Winter drive seals are cured under a tarp and a heater for the last two hours so overnight rain doesn't spoil the finish. If a job goes wrong we say so on the invoice and we credit it — nothing gets buried.
What Wembury owners ring us about
- Algae returning fast on shaded walls thanks to Wembury's very-exposed setting - across concrete tile - a factor we build into every softwash quote here.
- Pebbledash gone blotchy where a gutter has overflowed all season on seafront bungalows and 1960s detached - on seafront bungalows stock - the reason we keep this round on a tight schedule.
- Surface lichen on the south side of painted render and pebbledash - common on coastal village stock in PL9 - at very exposed exposure - a pattern we see through the shoulder seasons.
- Discolouration where downpipes meet painted render and pebbledash - near-universal on coastal village properties this far from PL3 - in the South Hams District Council patch - handled from a pole not a ladder wherever we can.
- Tide-marks at conservatory roof drip lines on seafront bungalows and 1960s detached - 6 miles from PL3 - the difference between a two-year finish and a five-year one.
How the job would run on your Wembury property
- 1Softwash strength dialled for painted render and pebbledash - not the mix we'd use on smooth modern render (at very exposed exposure - a pattern we see through the shoulder seasons).
- 2Two passes on the Plymstock-facing elevation where very-exposed weather drives the worst staining (in the South Hams District Council patch - handled from a pole not a ladder wherever we can).
- 3Lower biocide concentration around old mortar joints on coastal village properties in PL9 (6 miles from PL3 - the difference between a two-year finish and a five-year one).
- 4Window pre-wet so over-spray rinses clean - important on older glass in seafront bungalows and 1960s detached (at roughly 50.318,-4.085 - a job where getting the order right matters more than the products).
- 5Plinth and damp-course area always rinsed last on coastal village stock in Wembury (on painted render and pebbledash - the elevation that always dictates the price).
