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.
- Are you insured for work in Start?
- Yes. £5m public liability, all crew trained on softwash and working-at-height, and we send you a copy of the schedule on request.
- 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.
