About our Cambridge service

If you are based in Cambridge knows the area: Cambridge is a historic university city with a booming science, technology and biotech economy, high property prices and strong demand for rental housing. Our soft washing service covers the whole town, from Newnham and Castle.

We offer soft washing all over Cambridge and the surrounding Cambridgeshire area. Whether it is a small one-off job or a larger project, we give you one clear price before any work is booked.

Local buildings are largely Victorian terraces, Edwardian villas, student lets and modern apartments, so each quote takes into account the property, parking and access and when you need it done.

Across East of England, damp winters and mild summers give algae and mould plenty of chance to build up on exteriors.

Many Cambridge homeowners book soft washing in spring or early autumn, when mild, dry weather gives the biocide the best chance to work.
