Roof and exterior cleaning in Scottish Borders

The Scottish Borders is home to some of Scotland's most characterful towns and properties. From sandstone terraces in Galashiels to slate-roofed homes in Kelso, the region's mix of traditional building materials requires surface-specific exterior cleaning.

Exterior cleaning services available in Scottish Borders

We provide the full range of exterior cleaning services in Scottish Borders and surrounding areas. Every service starts with a free, no-obligation property assessment so we can recommend the safest and most effective approach for your specific surfaces and conditions.

Roof cleaning in Scottish Borders

Moss, lichen, and algae accumulate on roofs across Scottish Borders, particularly on north-facing slopes and properties sheltered by trees. Our roof cleaning service starts with a ground-level assessment of the roof covering, pitch, access, and level of growth. We then recommend the safest method for the material, whether that is careful manual removal, soft washing, or biocide treatment. Gutter clearing of fallen debris is included as standard.

Render and wall cleaning in Scottish Borders

Rendered walls across Scottish Borders develop green algae staining, particularly on shaded and north-facing elevations. K Rend, roughcast, monocouche, and traditional sand-and-cement renders each need a surface-appropriate cleaning method. We use soft washing with specialist biocide solutions that clean the render safely and kill organic growth at the root, producing results that last significantly longer than pressure washing alone.

Driveway cleaning in Scottish Borders

Block paving, concrete, tarmac, and resin driveways across Scottish Borders all accumulate moss, algae, and surface staining over time. A green or slippery driveway is both a safety hazard and a poor first impression. Our driveway cleaning service assesses the material, joint condition, and drainage before applying the right cleaning method. We can also advise on re-sanding block paving joints and sealing options.

Patio and gutter cleaning in Scottish Borders

Patios become slippery and unusable when algae, moss, and black spot take hold. We clean natural stone, concrete slabs, porcelain, and Indian sandstone patios using methods suited to each material. Gutter cleaning is often combined with roof cleaning, because moss debris from the roof is the main cause of gutter blockages. We clear all gutters, hoppers, and downpipes and check for damage or leaks during the process.
