Render Cleaning in Exeter
Soft-wash render cleaning and biocide treatment that removes algae without damaging the finish.
Exeter property owners come to us for render cleaning for one of two reasons: something has failed, or the house looks tired.
Across Devon, cob and thatch, stone farmhouses and extensive coastal housing dominates, and cement render on cob causing structural decay is what we are called out to most often.
Exeter sits in a part of the UK that gets high rainfall and exposed coastal conditions — worth factoring into any render decision. Cob is unforgiving — it must be finished in lime, and cement rendering over cob is one of the most damaging things that can be done to a devon property.
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 Exeter
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.
How much does rendering cost?
It is priced by the square metre and depends on the system, the condition of the walls and access. Our guide-price tool gives an indicative range in about a minute, and the survey turns that into a fixed written quote.
Do you offer a guarantee?
Yes. Every job carries our workmanship guarantee, and where a full manufacturer-specified system is installed you also get the system warranty on top.
