From first enquiry to finished job, we make soft washing in Hackney straightforward: one point of contact, one fixed price and people who arrive when they say they will.

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.

Checklist before booking in Hackney

  • Get a fixed written price that lists every surface included
  • Make sure an outside tap is working and that there is access to all sides of the property
  • Move cars, furniture and pots away from the walls and keep pets indoors on the day
  • Take photos of each side of the property, the roof and any outbuildings you want cleaned
  • Note the type of surface, such as silicone render, painted render, brick, stone or concrete tiles
