Your Local Render Cleaning Service For Edinburgh

Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we focus on providing professional outdoor cleaning services across Edinburgh. Recently, a client approached us with a challenging issue involving their delicate render finish, which had become covered in red algae, giving the appearance that the render was bleeding. This unattractive problem greatly impacted the original beauty of the render. This case study details how we renewed their render using our specialized softwash approach.

Obstacles Faced

• Red Algae Infestation: The silicon-based render was heavily infested with red algae, giving the look of stains.

• Delicate Surface: Pressure washing was not an option as it would damage the delicate silicon-based render.

• Vegetation Protection: The area around the render had plants nearby that needed care to avoid any contact with the cleaning agents.

Our Approach

Upon being reached out to, we carried out a comprehensive site survey to assess the extent of the algae infestation and formulate our approach. We then presented a clear outline of our service and cost estimate, which the customer agreed to. Here’s a summary of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We inspected the render and the surrounding area to understand the full scope of the problem. We discussed our gentle cleaning method and offered a pricing estimate, which the customer approved.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: We arranged the cleaning at a convenient date for the customer. On the day of service, we prepared our tools and took extra measures to protect the surrounding vegetation and environment.

3. Vegetation Protection: Before initiating cleaning, we thoroughly watered down the surrounding vegetation to reduce the chances of chemical exposure. In areas where needed, we set up protective coverings between the cleaning area and the vegetation.

4. Softwashing Application: Using our gentle washing tools, we applied an organic cleaning solution to the rendered wall. This solution is gentle on the surface yet strong enough to eliminate red algae. Within about an hour of treatment, the render began to show significant improvement.

5. Second Treatment and Longevity Application: In some areas, a additional soft wash was necessary to reach maximum effectiveness. Additionally, the customer opted for an additional biocide treatment to provide long-lasting protection against organic contaminants. This was applied after the cleaning process to maintain cleanliness and prevent future growth.

6. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: After finishing the project, we asked the customer to review the render. They were thrilled with the outcome and the return of their render to its original beautiful state. The customer signed off on the work, expressing their satisfaction with the results.

Transformation

The improvement was stunning. The red algae infestation was fully eliminated, renewing the render’s beauty. The additional biocide treatment provided the render with protection against future organic growth, ensuring it stays clean over time.
