There is no closed season for exterior cleaning here, but there is a sensible order through the year, and booking in the right window gets a better result for the same money.

Spring
The best window for wall softwash. Growth from the winter is at its peak and visible, and there is enough dry weather for good dwell time before the summer.
This guide sits under our Gutter Cleaning & Clearing work, covering 20-mile radius of Plymouth.
Late summer and early autumn
Driveways, patios and decking, while surfaces dry properly, and the pre-winter gutter clear once the leaves are down but before the first storms.
Winter
Glass, gutters and any urgent clearing carry on. Softwash needs a dry, still window, which is why winter wall work gets planned around the forecast.
Questions we get on this
- Do you work in winter?
- Yes, Monday to Saturday all year, weather permitting for treatment work.
- Is it too cold for softwash?
- Cold is less of a problem than rain and wind. We watch the forecast and book accordingly.
- When should gutters be done?
- After leaf fall and before the first serious storms.
