Facade and roof cleaning, material by material
Green streaks, moss and grime do more than spoil a building’s looks. We choose the cleaning method according to the material: what concrete cladding can take may damage old brick, a bluestone surround or a roof tile.
This service is for you if…
- Homes with green deposits or grime on brick, render or plasterwork, from Brussels town-house fronts to Walloon stone farmhouses.
- Commercial premises clad in sandwich panels, profiled metal sheeting or other cladding.
- Roofs covered in moss and algae, and gutters that block again and again.
- Residential buildings wanting to refresh their facade before a sale or a renovation.

How we go about it
On-site inspection
Material, condition, height and surroundings decide the method.
Test patch
We try a small area first and talk the result through with you.
The work
From the ground or by ladder, up to two storeys, with all the necessary protection. Higher on request.
Lasting protection
An anti-moss treatment or impregnation wherever it makes sense.
What shapes the price
No two jobs are alike. Your quote takes these factors into account:
- Surface area and height
- Material and its condition
- Degree of soiling
- Ease of access
- Any protective treatment afterwards
Our methods
- Low pressure & softwashA suitable product and water applied at low pressure, sometimes warm. The product does the work, not the force of the jet.
- High pressure (used sparingly)High pressure is powerful, but never harmless. We keep it for materials that can take it, with the right distance and pressure.
- Moss removal & protectionWe remove moss and algae, then apply an anti-moss treatment or water repellent that slows regrowth.
Questions we often hear
Do you repair roofs or gutters as well?
No. We clean and unblock gutters. If we spot any damage, we let you know so that a roofer can repair it.
Is impregnation always needed?
Not always. It limits moisture absorption and new deposits, but it must suit the material. We advise facade by facade.
