Exterior Cleaning in Limerick
Irish weather leaves its mark on the outside of a house: green algae on render, black streaks under the sills, grime on fascias and soffits. We wash it off with the right method for each surface, using a gentle soft wash on render and painted finishes rather than blasting them with high pressure. We cover Limerick City, Castletroy, Annacotty, Raheen, Dooradoyle and Patrickswell and everywhere else in the county.

The full job, not half of it.
- Soft washing of render, pebbledash and painted walls
- Fascias, soffits and gutter fronts cleaned
- Windowsills, door surrounds and porches
- Treatment that kills algae at the root so it stays away longer
- Surrounding plants and windows protected and rinsed
Time to book if you've got
- Green or black patches on the render, usually on the shaded side
- Streaks running down from the windowsills
- Fascias and soffits looking grey instead of white
- The house looking tired next to freshly painted neighbours
How we do it
Step by step.
- 01
Assess
We check what the walls are made of and how they're finished, because that decides the method.
- 02
Protect
Plants, windows and anything delicate gets covered or rinsed down first.
- 03
Soft wash
A low-pressure clean with a treatment that breaks down algae and grime without damaging the surface.
- 04
Rinse
Everything rinsed off and the area left tidy.
Best time to book
Spring to early autumn, ideally in a dry spell. Done before you paint, it gives the new paint a clean surface to grip.
In Limerick
Away from the coast the problem in Limerick is damp rather than salt: shaded walls turn green and stay that way until they're properly treated. Sitting on the Shannon with weather rolling in from the west, Limerick gets a steady, damp climate. That's ideal for moss on driveways and green streaks under windowsills, and not great for anything left uncleaned for a few winters.

Exterior Cleaning in Limerick: questions

Yes. We cover all of County Limerick, including Limerick City, Castletroy, Annacotty, Raheen, Dooradoyle, Patrickswell, Adare, Croom, Newcastle West, Rathkeale, Abbeyfeale and Kilmallock.
Will power washing damage my render?
High pressure can, which is why we don't use it on render or painted walls. A soft wash does the cleaning with treatment, not force.
How long does it stay clean?
It depends on how much shade and rain the wall gets, but because the treatment kills the algae rather than just rinsing it off, it comes back much more slowly.
Should I clean the walls before painting?
Yes. Paint over algae and dirt doesn't bond properly and starts to fail early. A wash first is the cheapest way to make a paint job last.
