Exterior Cleaning in Cleveleys

What Cleveleys does to a building

Cleveleys sits directly on the Irish Sea, and that shows on the outside of almost every property. Salt-laden wind dries on glass and leaves a film that comes back faster than it does a couple of miles inland. Sandy grit works its way into window frames and sills. Anything facing the sea weathers noticeably quicker than the sheltered side of the same house.

The other half of the problem is damp shade. North-facing walls, gable ends behind a hedge and the back of a terrace never fully dry out in winter, and that is exactly where green algae takes hold on render and where moss establishes on a roof pitch.

• Salt film on glass, frames and sills, heaviest towards the promenade
• Green algae on shaded and north-facing rendered elevations
• Moss on roof pitches that get little direct sun
• Gutters filling with moss washed down off the roof
• Staining running down a wall below an overflowing gutter

The regular round in Cleveleys

Window cleaning and gutter clearing are the two jobs that need doing again and again, so they stay close to base. In Cleveleys that means a settled round: houses on a frequency that suits how exposed they are, plus shopfronts and business premises that need someone dependable.

Most window work is done from the ground with a water-fed pole and purified water, which reaches upper floors without ladders leaning on gutters or conservatory roofs, and dries without spotting. Gutters are cleared with a ground-based vacuum system with a camera on the pole, so you can be shown the state of the run before and after.

Roof, render and K-Rend work in Cleveleys

Specialist work is quoted here as well, and being minutes from base makes it straightforward to look at a property before pricing it — which matters far more on a roof or a rendered wall than it does on a driveway.

Roofs are assessed before a method is chosen, because tile type, age and condition change what is safe to do. Render and K-Rend are soft washed at low pressure, never pressure washed: on a through-coloured silicone render, high pressure erodes the textured face permanently.
