VIEW MORE BEFORE & AFTER RESULTS Harling, Pebbledash & Roughcast Cleaning Methods Available in Fife Textured exterior surfaces can become noticeably darker, stained or discoloured over time. The appropriate cleaning method depends on the surface type, condition, contamination and accessibility. Cleaning by Softwashing Softwashing uses suitable cleaning solutions to help break down organic contamination such as algae, moss and mould. This can be useful where contamination has become established and a gentler cleaning approach is appropriate. Cleaning by Steam Steam cleaning can be considered for suitable exterior surfaces where controlled heat and low-pressure cleaning are appropriate. The method used will depend on the type, condition and contamination of the surface. Cleaning by Low Pressure Where suitable, controlled low-pressure cleaning can help remove or loosen moss, algae or dirt without using unnecessarily aggressive pressure. Cleaning by Hand Some areas may require more controlled manual cleaning, particularly around windows, doors, corners, trims and detailed sections. Cleaning Using Access Equipment Where textured exterior walls are high or difficult to reach, suitable access equipment may be required. Depending on the property, this can include ladders, MEWPs or scaffolding. About Fife Fife ( FYFE, Scottish English: [fɐi̯f]; Scottish Gaelic:
