Start's local exterior cleaning crew

Farming hamlet inland from Start Point. That local context changes how we approach every job, so we've written it up on this page rather than a generic template.

Farming hamlet inland from Start Point. About 19.4 miles from our PL3 base.

What's specific about Start

  • Roofs around Start are mostly slate, which affects how much moss and lichen we usually see.
  • Most houses we quote in Start are cob and stone, which sets the treatment we plan for walls.
  • At about 19.4 miles from Plymouth PL3, Start is on our regular run rather than a special trip.

Common reasons Start owners ring us

  • Coastal air pushes salt onto render across Start, so wall softwash is our most-booked local service.
  • Lots of Start homes back onto lanes and hedges, so gutter debris arrives faster than the average clean cycle allows.
  • Granite and stone frontages in Start need a low-pressure approach - never a strip-the-face jet wash.

FAQs for Start

What surfaces do you clean in Start?
Walls (including render, cob and stone), roofs (mostly slate around here), windows, gutters, patios and driveways. That covers most jobs local Start owners ask for.
How do you plan access for work in Start?
We check parking, gate widths and elevation heights before the visit so the right reach equipment turns up first time.
Do you clean stone or granite in Start?
Yes, but softwash rather than high-pressure. Granite and painted stone in Start needs a chemical-led approach so the face isn't opened up.
Do you do second homes in Start?
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.
