Render Cleaning in Surrey
Soft-wash render cleaning and biocide treatment that removes algae without damaging the finish.
Getting render cleaning right in Surrey depends far more on the substrate and the exposure than on the product name.
Across Surrey, tile-hung and timber-framed cottages, Victorian villas and substantial modern housing dominates, and high-specification smooth render and appearance-led refurbishment is what we are called out to most often. The area sees a moderate southern climate, which is the single biggest factor in how long any render lasts here.
Local factor. Work here skews heavily toward discretionary upgrade rather than failure repair, so finish quality and colour matching carry unusual weight.
Is render cleaning right for a Surrey property?
Choose soft-wash cleaning to restore a discoloured render without the substrate damage that pressure washing causes on thin-coat systems.
That decision gets made at the survey, not on the phone. We will tell you plainly if a different system would serve the building better — including when a cheaper one would.

FAQs
Render Cleaning in Surrey — questions
Do you take a deposit?
For most domestic jobs we take a deposit to cover materials and scaffold, with the balance on completion. Terms are set out clearly in the written quote.
Can you match my existing render?
Usually, yes. We colour and texture match as closely as we can, though weathered render never matches a fresh batch exactly — we will be honest about how visible a patch will be.
How long does render cleaning last?
Typically two to four years before noticeable regrowth, depending on shading, aspect and nearby vegetation. Annual maintenance treatments extend that considerably.
Why is only one wall green?
North-facing and shaded elevations stay damp far longer, so algae establishes there first. Overhanging trees and leaking gutters accelerate it.
How long does a rendering job take?
A typical three-bedroom semi is usually one to two weeks on site including scaffold, preparation, application and finishing. Weather, wall condition and the system chosen all move that.
Do I need planning permission to render my house?
Usually not on a standard house, but you will if the property is listed, in a conservation area, or if rendering would significantly change its appearance. We flag it at survey.
