Render Cleaning in Montrose
Soft-wash render cleaning and biocide treatment that removes algae without damaging the finish.
Render Cleaning in Montrose is work we take on regularly, and the Angus housing stock is a big part of why.
Across Angus, sandstone terraces, fishing-town housing and rural cottages dominates, and harling and render repair on exposed sandstone is what we are called out to most often.
Local conditions bring cold easterly exposure with hard frosts, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying. Local sandstone weathers readily once its face is broken, which is why harling was traditionally applied as a sacrificial protective coat.
When render cleaning is the right call. Choose soft-wash cleaning to restore a discoloured render without the substrate damage that pressure washing causes on thin-coat systems.

FAQs
Render Cleaning in Montrose
Can you render over existing render?
Sometimes, if the existing coat is completely sound and well-bonded. We hammer-test it first. Anything hollow has to come off, because covering failure just hides it.
Are you insured?
Yes — full public liability cover, and we can send the certificate before we start. We are happy to provide RAMS for commercial and contractor work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, with teams across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. If we are not the right firm for your location we will tell you rather than waste your time.
Can I pressure wash my render?
We strongly advise against it on thin-coat silicone, acrylic and monocouche. High pressure erodes the finish and forces water behind it. Soft washing is the safe method.
Will cleaning restore the original colour?
On through-coloured render, usually yes — the colour is intact under the growth. On painted render, cleaning may reveal that the paint itself has faded unevenly.
