The Hoe exterior cleaning, done properly
If you own a house in The Hoe, this page covers exactly what we do here and how we quote it, and how The Hoe relates to nearby Plymouth City Centre.
Cliff-top green above Plymouth Sound and Smeaton's Tower. About 1.3 miles from our PL3 base.
What's specific about The Hoe
- At about 1.3 miles from Plymouth PL3, The Hoe is on our regular run rather than a special trip.
- Roofs around The Hoe are mostly slate and Welsh slate, which affects how much moss and lichen we usually see.
- Most houses we quote in The Hoe are painted render and Portland stone, which sets the treatment we plan for walls.
Common reasons The Hoe owners ring us
- Coastal air pushes salt onto render across The Hoe, so wall softwash is our most-booked local service.
- Overhanging trees keep roofs shaded for most of the day in The Hoe, which is why moss builds up quickly here.
- Granite and stone frontages in The Hoe need a low-pressure approach - never a strip-the-face jet wash.

FAQs for The Hoe
- How quickly can you quote a job in The Hoe?
- Usually the same day. Send a photo and the postcode PL1 to 07830 242403 and we'll write back with a fixed price.
- Do you clean stone or granite in The Hoe?
- Yes, but softwash rather than high-pressure. Granite and painted stone in The Hoe needs a chemical-led approach so the face isn't opened up.
- Can you do just one service, or do I have to book everything?
- Whatever you'd like. Most The Hoe customers pick two or three services in one visit - that's cheaper than separate trips.
- Is there a minimum charge for The Hoe?
- There's a small minimum charge (typically the equivalent of one window-clean visit) but no travel surcharge for The Hoe.
- 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.
