About our Preston service

Anyone based in Preston knows the area: Preston is lancashire city on the River Ribble and the county's administrative centre, with a large university, former cotton industry and good motorway links. We work right across it, including Fulwood to Ashton-on-Ribble.

We carry out soft washing all over Preston and the surrounding Lancashire area. Whether it is a small one-off job or a larger project, you get one clear price before anything is booked in.

We regularly deal with Victorian terraces, student lets, inter-war semis and modern estates. Every property is a little different, which is why we price from the details you send.

Homes in Preston with silicone or acrylic render often show the first green streaks on north-facing gable ends within a few years of being rendered.

Concrete tile roofs around Preston commonly pick up moss and lichen, especially where trees overhang or the roof faces north.

What is soft washing?

Soft washing is a low-pressure exterior cleaning method. A solution containing a biocide and a surfactant is applied at low pressure, left to kill algae, mould, lichen and bacteria, then rinsed off. It cleans by killing the growth rather than blasting it off, which makes it safer for delicate surfaces and keeps them clean for longer.
