Exterior Cleaning in Rowhedge

Rowhedge is an old riverside village in East Donyland parish, facing Wivenhoe across the Colne. Its heart is a cluster of former fishermen’s and shipbuilders’ cottages near the quay, with post-war houses behind and new homes built on the old industrial land beside the river.

From century-old cottages to brand-new townhouses, we clean gutters, fascias, conservatory roofs, solar panels, roofs, driveways and patios across the village.

Book online or call 01206 688698.

Old cottages and new riverside homes

The river keeps the air damp, especially in the narrow lanes near the water, so moss and algae grow readily on roofs, walls and paths. The newer riverside homes have plenty of block paving and modern uPVC, which stay looking new with regular cleaning; the older cottages need a gentler touch.

What we clean in Rowhedge, and what it costs

Here’s what we do in Rowhedge and what it costs. Choose two or more different services and you save 10% on the one-off jobs.

Fascia and soffit cleaning

Modern white fascias and soffits on the new homes show green streaks quickly in the damp river air. Green lines and dark drips along the eaves are lifted off with brushes and plenty of water, worked from the ground. Expect £120 on a typical 2/3-bed semi; the full range runs from £100 to £160. More about fascia and soffit cleaning.

Block paving, slabs and paths

Block paving on the new riverside streets stays crisp with a wash once a year or so. We pressure wash driveways, patios and paths. There’s no fixed price because size, surface and condition vary so much: send a photo or ask for a visit and we’ll quote. More about pressure washing.

Gutter clearing and downpipe outlets

Gutter clearing is done with a vacuum on extendable poles, so the work happens from your path or lawn rather than up a ladder. Moss, leaves, seeds and grit all come out. You’ll pay £100, £120, £140 or £160, going up with the size of the property (2-bed to 5-bed detached). More about gutter clearing.

Roof cleaning and moss removal

Older cottage roofs near the quay are surveyed before we suggest any method. Thick moss and lichen are removed carefully from the tiles, and we clear what falls into the gutters before we leave. Guide price from £800; the exact figure comes after we’ve surveyed the roof. More about roof cleaning.

Panel cleaning with purified water

We wash solar panels with pure water so they dry without leaving residue, reaching them from the ground or from an access tower. It’s £8 a panel for up to 16 panels and £7 a panel for 17 to 25. Bigger arrays are quoted. More about solar panel cleaning.

Conservatory roofs and frames

A green or grubby roof makes the room underneath darker and colder-looking. Cleaning the panels and the bars between them lets the daylight back in. Prices by house size: £80, £90, £110 or £130. More about conservatory cleaning.
