Render cleaning is
the process of removing dirt, algae, mold, and other organic growth from the exterior render of a building. The best method depends on the type and condition of the render, but soft washing is often recommended as a safe and effective approach, especially for delicate surfaces.
Render cleaning methods
- Soft washing: This is a low-pressure, non-abrasive method that uses a chemical-based cleaning solution to break down and kill organic growth. It is the most effective and safest option for most types of render, including modern materials like silicone and monocouche.
- Process: A biocide or bleach-based detergent mixture is applied to the surface, allowed to dwell for a period, and then rinsed off with low-pressure water.
- Steam cleaning (e.g., DOFF system): This method uses superheated steam to gently and effectively remove stubborn stains and organic matter without using high pressure or chemicals. It is a very gentle process, but is not suitable for painted render and can require specialist equipment.
- Pressure washing (with caution): For durable surfaces like some cement renders, a pressure washer on a low setting with a fan nozzle can be used for general dirt and grime. However, high-pressure washing can easily damage or etch the render, forcing water behind the surface and causing more issues.
- Hand cleaning: For minor, surface-level dirt, a soft-bristled brush, a mild detergent, and water from a hose can be used. This manual approach is safest for very delicate or painted finishes.

How to clean render safely
Before you begin, identify your render type and the source of the staining to choose the right method.
- Preparation: Cover nearby plants, furniture, and windows to protect them from cleaning chemicals. Use a soft-bristled broom to sweep away any loose debris, cobwebs, or vegetation.
- Apply solution: Apply the appropriate cleaning solution for your render type, using a low-pressure sprayer or soft brush. For soft washing, this will be a specialist biocide or a mild bleach solution to kill biological growth.
- Allow dwell time: Let the solution sit for the recommended time, which allows it to break down dirt and organic material. Avoid letting it dry on the surface.
- Rinse thoroughly: Rinse the surface from top to bottom with clean water and low pressure to wash away all the cleaning agents and loosened grime. For best results, it is critical to rinse all product off.
- Protect (optional): Consider applying a hydrophobic coating to help repel water and prevent organic growth in the future.
Why hire a professional?
- Expertise: Professionals can correctly identify your render type and the cause of the staining to use the safest and most effective cleaning method.
- Safety: Cleaning at height and handling specialized chemicals can be dangerous. Professionals have the right equipment and experience to do the job safely.
- Equipment: Specialized equipment, such as soft washing pumps, DOFF steam cleaners, and MEWPs (mobile elevated work platforms) for access, is required for certain jobs.
- Damage prevention: Inexperienced use of a pressure washer can cause expensive and irreversible damage to render.
Cost of professional render cleaning
The cost of hiring a professional depends on factors such as property size, render condition, staining severity, and required access.
- Average cost: Prices in the UK range from £300 to over £1,200.
- Mildly dirty render: Simple soft washing on a small property can start around £375.
- Heavily stained render: Extensive cleaning for heavy algae or lichen can cost £1,500 to £3,000 or more.
- Large or multi-story buildings: Additional costs for scaffolding or access equipment can increase the total price significantly
