Render soft washing — full gable elevation
Detached rendered house, full gable wall
The property and the problem
The whole gable had darkened with vertical streaking running the full height of the wall, with the worst of it near the downpipe.
The work carried out
Worked from the ground on a low-pressure pole so the render was never pressure washed, taking the wall down in sections from the roofline.
The result
An even finish across the full gable, right up to the roofline and around the pipework.
The service behind this job
Specialist low-pressure cleaning for K-Rend and silicone render — algae and black staining removed without marking the finish.
