Render cleaning is an ongoing maintenance requirement to keep your home looking great – at any time of the year! That initial clean can set your property up to look great for years to come.

If you’ve never had your render cleaned and you’ve got black, green or red staining over your render, you need it treated.

  • If you’re trying to sell your house, you need it treated.
  • If you’re noticing your neighbours having theirs cleaned, you need it treated.
  • If you want to maintain the look of your expensive property, you need it treated.

We all want our homes to be clean and safe; everyone wants that. Render cleaning is something that often gets overlooked. Keeping your render clean does so many different things for your home besides the look of the property –

Let’s explain what it does:

Keeps the render looking fresh

Stops moisture from being trapped

Prevents early erosion or cracking

Reduces the risk of internal damp and mould

Prevents permanent staining

Avoids costly re-rendering

Kills bacterial spores at the root

Increase property resale value

Allows protective coatings to work

You may not have even considered that rendering cleaning is all part of property maintenance, but it’s not just about looking good! Damage can be caused if your render is not maintained.

SoftWashcleaning helps to clean the bacteria from the render, killing the spores on the surface and effectively fully sanitising the render, enabling us to remove staining. If this is left untreated, the spores in your render are filled with bacteria, and those spores start to grow and create the staining we all see.

All of a sudden, your slick-looking waterproof render is no more – the staining increases, in some cases, your house appears to be bleeding red, and the look of your beautiful property, you’ve spent thousands on,n suddenly looks tired and uncared for! That’s not to mention the damage the mould and bacteria are causing to the render surface at source …..

Depending on environmental factors such as vegetation or living by the channel or sea, living close to a busy road with traffic pollution, lack of sunlight on an elevation which encourages damp and mould, you may need to have your render cleaned more regularly. If we talk on averages, the average property is typically looking at having a SoftWash treatment every 2 years to keep everything in tip-top condition and your property looking beautiful ……
