Render Cleaning Leeds

Leeds is a densely populated city, seeped in history, and still expanding in the West Ridings. And with most busy metropoles that brim with people, traffic and the typical British climate, the need for building cleaning is constant. While typically northern weather conditions are ideal conditions for the growth of organic matter, traffic flows in Leeds are one of the heaviest in the UK, and this provides a fair amount of air pollution. Luckily, Purple Rhino apply their wealth of knowledge in this area to tackle these issues and provide expert render cleaning in Leeds and surrounding areas.

Depending on the structures involved, render cleaning can be a delicate process, especially with older buildings. Some render cleaners still apply cold water pressure washing on their jobs. However, this can cause damage to the building – the force of the water can break up rendering and damage the brickwork underneath.

However, Purple Rhino prefers the soft washing technique which uses steam, high water flow rates and low pressure to return buildings back to their original glory. We also make sure we use the right blend of treatments in order to protect the building from the regrowth of organic matter.

Our service is so good, it has been ISO:9001 accredited. Our passion is to provide a rendering cleaning service to such high spec that not only does the building look as good as new, but it also stays cleaner for longer.

How render cleaning in Leeds saves YOU money

The acclaimed render cleaning method from Purple Rhino sets out to not only clean but also to help protect your building from the elements. We treat every building individually, and make sure that all the chemicals we use in the cleaning process are gentle but effective against the dirt and organic matter which dulls and dirties render.

No repaint required

Rendering cleaning can be quite a delicate job. Some methods of cleaning can cause damage to the building meaning a hasty and expensive repaint is the only option. The soft washing technique from Purple Rhino means there is no need for costly paint jobs. Our aim is to transform the exterior of buildings in the easiest, gentlest and most effective way possible.

We scale the heights a lot of companies cannot reach

We have a head for heights, we have to – we’ve cleaned some very tall buildings! While it is not always possible to undertake jobs without hiring in access equipment, we do so as a last resort. Our normal reach is 23 metres – which is roughly the equivalent of five residential storeys. We are also able to treat buildings by using the access cradles that are fitted in to most commercial structures.

We clean AND we protect

The outdated method of cold water pressure washing has caused damage to numerous buildings in the past. The water blasts can break the surface of the render to cause little wells within. This creates perfect environments for the growth of algae, fungus and mould. The soft washing technique employed by Purple Rhino is gentle on surfaces but extremely effective in getting rid of stains, dirt and organic matter. What’s more, every rendered surface we work on receives an “after-clean” as part of our treatment. This is an environmentally-friendly biocide which slows down regrowth and ensure that your render looks cleaner for longer.

Thousands of happy customers can’t be wrong

Purple Rhino has helped thousands of satisfied customers over the years, and the key to a healthy business is repeat custom. We know we’re doing a good job when customers keep coming back to us to help them with their rendering cleaning. This has helped us specialise this area of the business, to the point where we have developed our unique purpose-built render cleaning machine – exclusive to Purple Rhino and a first in the industry. We have also invested heavily in to other equipment meaning that every job we do is a combination of expert industry knowledge and cutting edge kit.

Before

After

Removal of algae and moss isn’t as straightforward as it seems to be. Many building owners place their trust in local builders or commercial contractors to undertake the remedial works but without the correct expertise this can prove to be a costly mistake.
Render cleaning without the necessary skills can cause serious and irreparable damage. Surfaces should be appropriately treated before any cleaning work begins, effectively killing off spores to prevent regrowth. Once the surface has been suitably prepared we then apply steam under low pressure to gently remove any algae which remains after the treatment while also lifting away dirt and pollutants. Once cleaned properly you are left with a surface which is bright, clean and fully
restored with no damage to the render.

Render Cleaning Leeds Services

Before starting any project we conduct a thorough assessment of the surfaces to be cleaned to ensure that we use the correct techniques to clean the render as effectively as possible. Incorrect assessments of the render, inexperienced operators and poor cleaning techniques can cause unwanted damage to the surface which will need further repair. The incorrect use of a pressure washer for example simply pushes the water deeper into the surface causing damage. The water can then freeze in cold temperatures and cause cracking to the render which will result in expensive repair or replacement works in the future. Furthermore incorrect pressure washing doesn’t kill the mould spores and these will continue to grow, reappearing again in a few weeks or months.

Here at Purple Rhino we have the skills, knowledge and experience to deliver professional render cleaning services that you can trust.
