Detailed service description
A facade carries the whole first impression of a building, and it is also the part that quietly weathers. Render greys off, brick collects grime, and the sheltered, shaded faces of a home wrapped in the semi-rural feel of the area grow a green-black film of mould and algae that makes a good house look neglected.
Soft washing is the safe approach for modern render and cladding systems. A cleaning solution breaks down the mould and grime, dwells for a short while, then rinses away at low pressure, so the surface comes up clean with no water forced behind the render or the cladding sheets.
- Rendered walls and acrylic-render facades
- Face brick, painted brick and masonry
- Cladding, weatherboard and composite panel
- Eaves, soffits, entry surrounds and feature walls
Add ons
- Window and glass clean as part of the facade refresh
- Anti-mould treatment on shaded, mould-prone walls
Why and when you need it
On the leafy, established blocks near Mullum Mullum Creek the shaded side of a building stays damp, so mould, algae and grime settle on render and brick and the facade starts to look dull long before it should.
A building wash is the fastest way to refresh a property without painting. The difference on a rendered home or a sprawling brick house is striking once the green film and street grime come off.
Well worth doing before a sale, a valuation or photos, after nearby building work throws up dust, or simply on a regular cycle to keep render and cladding from staining for good.
How this service works
We start by reading the facade, because render, painted brick and cladding each want their own touch and their own dilution.
Then the cleaning solution goes on at low pressure and is given a short dwell to do the work, rather than relying on force.
We rinse at low pressure too, working methodically across the elevation so nothing streaks and nothing is pushed up behind the render edges or cladding laps.
We protect the plants, paths and fixtures below, manage the runoff, and finish with a look over the surface to make sure it reads even and clean from the street.
