Window Cleaning that suits St Neot

There's a reason window cleaning sits near the top of every St Neot homeowner's list once spring arrives. Granite and exposed render take a hammering from horizontal Dartmoor rain six months of the year.

What's actually different about St Neot

There's a reason window cleaning sits near the top of every St Neot homeowner's list once spring arrives. Granite and exposed render take a hammering from horizontal Dartmoor rain six months of the year.

Bodmin Moor village on the St Neot river with a famous medieval church, which shapes how exterior cleaning here actually plays out. Working out of PL14 we're rarely more than 21.7 miles from a St Neot job.

What good window cleaning looks like here

  1. 1Extra rinse pass on south-westerly elevations because of St Neot's very-exposed air
  2. 2Pre-visit message the evening before so you can move the car on local lanes off A38
  3. 3Sill drainage holes cleared before the rinse on moorland village properties
  4. 4Cobweb sweep of soffit lines included on every St Neot visit
  5. 5Lead detail brushed by hand at low pressure on older granite cottages and farmhouses

Materials & methods we'd use here

Most St Neot 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

    Four-stage RO/DI rig producing pure water - matters more for the very-exposed elevations in St Neot

  • Method

    Soft brush heads for leaded sashes on granite cottages and farmhouses, firmer head for modern UPVC

  • Method

    Frame and sill cleaned at the same time as the glass on every St Neot visit, no extra line

  • Method

    Schedule reminders auto-sent so St Neot customers never have to chase

Typical problems on St Neot properties

  • Sash recesses and lead detail filling with cobweb and grit on older moorland village stock
  • UPVC frames yellowing where algae has been ignored across granite cottages and farmhouses
  • South-westerly glazing in St Neot caked with salt residue - Bodmin Moor village on the St Neot river with a famous medieval church
  • Window frames staining green at the corners where water sits on moorland village properties
  • Trickle vents fogging over on the windward side of granite cottages and farmhouses
