Let’s face it. When your home’s render starts going green, grey, or patchy, it doesn’t exactly scream “well-kept.” But before you break out the paintbrush or start budgeting for a full re-render, there’s good news.
You probably just need a proper softwash render clean.
At PSC Solutions, we help homeowners across Somerset restore the fresh, clean look of their rendered homes
without harsh chemicals, pressure damage, or unnecessary repainting. Here's how it works, and why softwashing is the smarter way to protect your investment.
What Is Render Cleaning?
Render cleaning removes surface build-up like algae, mould, lichen and grime from the external walls of your home. Over time, these contaminants make even modern finishes look tired and uneven.
The most common types of render we clean include:
K-Rend
Monocouche
Coloured or tinted render
Pebbledash and traditional finishes
If you’ve noticed green streaks, patches of mould, or a general “dullness” creeping over your home’s exterior, it’s time to act.
Why Soft washing Beats Pressure Washing
Unlike traditional pressure washing, which can damage render and drive moisture into the walls, soft washing uses low-pressure water and treatments to gently kill off and remove organic growth.
It’s the safest and most effective method for cleaning delicate render and it delivers long-lasting results by treating the source of the problem, not just blasting off the surface layer.
