Soft washing in Barnsley

Anyone based in Barnsley will know the place well: Barnsley is a South Yorkshire market town with a strong coal-mining past, a regenerated town centre and former pit villages around it, well placed on the M1 between Sheffield and Leeds. We cover all of it, from Worsbrough to Ardsley.

We deal with soft washing for homeowners, landlords, managing agents and commercial property owners in Barnsley regularly. Jobs are done properly, priced clearly and finished on time.

We regularly deal with Stone and brick terraces, ex-colliery housing, semis and new-build estates. Every property is a little different, which is why every quote is based on your details.

Older brick and stone properties in South Yorkshire need gentle low-pressure cleaning, as soft bricks and lime mortar are easily damaged by high pressure.

Managing agents in Barnsley often have blocks of flats soft washed in phases, so residents keep access to entrances throughout the work.

Barnsley soft washing: common questions

What chemicals are used in soft washing?

Most soft wash solutions are based on sodium hypochlorite, the active ingredient in bleach, diluted to a strength that suits the surface, with a surfactant to help it cling. Some jobs use quaternary ammonium biocides instead, which work more slowly over days or weeks and are often used on roofs and delicate stone. The solution is matched to the surface and the type of staining.
