frequently asked questions (faqs)

Soft washing uses low water pressure combined with specialist cleaning solutions to gently remove moss, algae, lichen and dirt. Pressure washing relies on high force, which can damage delicate surfaces like roof tiles or pointing. Soft washing is safer, longer-lasting and more effective for most roofs and exterior surfaces.

AWith biocide treatment included, surfaces typically stay clean for 3–5 years, depending on shade, weather exposure and maintenance. Pressure washing alone only removes surface growth and moss often comes back within months.

Yes – we assess each roof individually before cleaning. Slate, clay and many concrete tiles are suitable for soft washing or steam cleaning. Some older or fragile roofs may need moss scraping and biocide only. We’ll always recommend the safest method for your roof.

No – unlike jet washing, soft washing uses low pressure so it won’t erode pointing, loosen paving or damage resin-bound drives. It’s ideal for stone patios, block paving, tarmac and resin driveways.

Prices start from £250 for domestic roof cleaning. Driveway and patio cleaning costs vary depending on size, access and surface type. We provide free, no-obligation quotes across Surrey and Hampshire.

Biocide is an anti-fungal treatment applied after cleaning. It kills spores that cause moss and algae growth, keeping surfaces clean for much longer. Without biocide, regrowth happens much faster.

Where possible, we use biodegradable, environmentally friendly cleaners. Our treatments are designed to break down safely while still killing organic growth at the root. We always rinse surfaces thoroughly and take care to protect surrounding plants and landscaping.
