Monocouche renders, including Parex, Weber, and K-Rend etc., have rapidly become the preferred exterior finish for both residential and commercial properties across Ireland. Over time, these surfaces inevitably accumulate natural bacteria, algae, and mildew, particularly on north- and east-facing walls that receive less direct sunlight.
Historically, there has been a common misconception that high-powered pressure washing or simply painting over the affected areas are effective solutions for addressing the red or green stains caused by algae. However, neither method resolves the underlying issue. Pressure washing, while temporarily removing surface stains, can damage soft exterior render by leaving unsightly gouges or marks. Furthermore, it does not address the root cause, allowing algae to quickly regrow.
Our low-pressure softwash cleaning system offers a safe and effective solution for all types of exterior finishes, including traditional sand and cement render and all monocouche finishes. This gentle yet thorough cleaning approach ensures the complete removal of red and green algae, moss, lichen, and black mould without causing damage or discoloration to the surface—a risk often associated with power washing or jet washing.
We use environmentally friendly biocide treatments to effectively eliminate surface algae while safeguarding plants, grass, and pets. Our own formulated biocide solution is a unique blend of natural and organically certified ingredients, making it non-hazardous, non-corrosive, and non-toxic.
Additionally, our pole-fed softwash system enables us to efficiently treat hard-to-reach areas, such as gables or two-storey buildings, without the need for ladders.
This system is powered by a quiet 12v electric pumps, ensuring zero noise disruption in densely populated areas.
By choosing our professional softwash cleaning services, you can protect and maintain the pristine appearance of your property’s exterior render while preserving its integrity for years to come.
