Your Local Render Cleaning Service

Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we specialize in providing expert exterior cleaning services across the United Kingdom. Recently, a customer approached us with a challenging issue involving their silicon-based render, which had become infested with red algae, giving the appearance that the render was bleeding. This unsightly condition completely detracted from the original beauty of the render. This case study details how we successfully restored their render using our softwashing technique.

Customer Challenges

• Red Algae Infestation: The silicon-based render was heavily infested with red algae, creating an unpleasant bleeding appearance.
• Delicate Surface: Pressure washing was not an option as it would damage the delicate silicon-based render.
• Vegetation Protection: The area around the render included vegetation that needed protection from the cleaning solution.

Our Approach

Upon being contacted, we conducted a comprehensive site survey to assess the extent of the algae infestation and to determine the best cleaning strategy. We then provided the customer with a detailed proposal and free quotation, which they accepted. Here’s a detailed breakdown of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We evaluated the render and the surrounding area to understand the full scope of the problem. We explained our softwashing approach and provided a free quotation, which the customer accepted.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: We scheduled the cleaning at a convenient date for the customer. On the day of service, we set up our equipment and took necessary precautions to protect the surrounding vegetation and environment.

3. Vegetation Protection: Before starting the cleaning process, we thoroughly watered down the surrounding vegetation to minimize the risk of any chemical contact. In areas where needed, we placed barriers between the cleaning area and the vegetation.

4. Softwashing Application: Using our specialized softwashing equipment, we applied an organic cleaning solution to the rendered wall. This solution is gentle on the surface yet effective in removing algae and other contaminants. Within about an hour of treatment, the render began to show significant improvement.

5. Second Treatment and Longevity Application: In some areas, a second treatment was necessary to achieve optimal results. Additionally, the customer opted for an additional biocide treatment to provide long-term protection against organic contaminants. This was applied after the cleaning process to ensure the render remained clean and protected for an extended period.

6. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: After completing the cleaning process, we invited the customer to inspect the render. They were extremely pleased with the transformation and the return of their render to its original beautiful state. The customer signed off on the work, expressing their satisfaction with the results.

Results

The transformation was remarkable. The red algae infestation was completely removed, restoring the render to its original, pristine appearance. The additional biocide treatment provided the render with long-lasting protection against future organic growth.
