Local exterior cleaning across Chipshop
Chipshop sits in Devon at PL19, and it's inside our normal 20-mile radius from Plymouth.
Small crossroads hamlet west of Tavistock. About 14.7 miles from our PL3 base.
What's specific about Chipshop
- Chipshop at PL19 is close enough to us that we normally quote inside 24 hours from a photo.
- At about 14.7 miles from Plymouth PL3, Chipshop is on our regular run rather than a special trip.
- Roofs around Chipshop are mostly slate, which affects how much moss and lichen we usually see.
Common reasons Chipshop owners ring us
- Windborne pollen and lime dust from the fields settle on Chipshop render more than on Plymouth suburbs.
- Prevailing south-westerlies carry a lot of moisture into Chipshop, which favours algae growth on north-facing elevations.
- Coastal air pushes salt onto render across Chipshop, so wall softwash is our most-booked local service.

FAQs for Chipshop
- What surfaces do you clean in Chipshop?
- Walls (including render, cob and painted render), roofs (mostly slate around here), windows, gutters, patios and driveways. That covers most jobs local Chipshop owners ask for.
- Do you clean stone or granite in Chipshop?
- Yes, but softwash rather than high-pressure. Granite and painted stone in Chipshop needs a chemical-led approach so the face isn't opened up.
- How long do results last on Chipshop walls?
- Typically 2 - 4 years before another softwash is sensible, less on shaded north elevations and more on well-lit south elevations.
- Do you do second homes in Chipshop?
- Yes. We hold a key or code for a lot of second-home owners and send before-and-after photos after each visit.
- What if the weather is bad on the day?
- We message the night before with a firm plan. Wall softwash is fine in light rain; roof and gutter work moves if it's genuinely wet.
