Honest window cleaning for Walkhampton homes

There's a reason window cleaning sits near the top of every Walkhampton 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 Walkhampton

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

Western Dartmoor village between Yelverton and Princetown, which shapes how exterior cleaning here actually plays out. Crews are based 10.7 miles away in PL3, so callouts to Walkhampton are short.

Materials & methods we'd use here

Most Walkhampton properties we treat have Dartmoor granite and painted render walls and a natural 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 Walkhampton

  • Method

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

  • Method

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

  • Method

    Schedule reminders auto-sent so Walkhampton customers never have to chase

Typical problems on Walkhampton properties

  • Hard-water spotting on glass after DIY washes - quickly visible on moorland village bay fronts
  • Salt film that squeegee work leaves behind on very-exposed elevations in Walkhampton
  • Conservatory roofs darkened by algae - north slope first on moorland village layouts
  • Velux and dormer windows uncleaned since fitting on moorland village properties
  • Trickle vents fogging over on the windward side of granite cottages and Victorian farmhouses
