How do you clean K-Rend?

Soft wash only. Apply a sodium-hypochlorite based biocide at low pressure, let it dwell, then rinse with pure water at low pressure. Never use a jet wash, it ruins the silicone finish and opens the surface to water.

Can you clean monocouche render?

Yes, same soft-wash method as K-Rend, with biocide dilution tuned for the through-coloured surface. Pressure washing monocouche pulls colour out and shows immediately.

How much does render cleaning cost?

Most semi-detached homes are £180,£450 depending on render area and access. Detached homes with full wraps run £450,£900.

Will the algae come back?

Most properties stay clean for 3,5 years. Shaded, north-facing or tree-lined walls are quicker to regrow, we offer a top-up biocide spray every 2 years on a maintenance plan.

Will it damage my windows or plants?

No. The biocide is plant-safe at our dilution; window frames and gutters are rinsed clear before we finish.

Do you actually come out to NN11?

Yes, Daventry is a regular part of the round and there is no border surcharge.

How do you price a large driveway?

By measured area, taken properly, not estimated from a photo. You get the figure before we book anything in.

render cleaning in Daventry, what we actually find here

The housing round here. Northamptonshire border town with substantial post-war and modern estate housing at Middlemore, Monksmoor and Drayton, and older stone property in the surrounding villages.

Why Daventry exteriors get dirty. Exposed, elevated ground catches the weather, so render on the prevailing side takes a beating and roofs pick up moss quickly.

Access and pricing. Larger modern family homes with generous drives, which we quote by measured area rather than guessing from the road.

Covering NN11, including Drayton, Middlemore, Monksmoor, Welton.

Why professional render cleaning matters

Modern thin-coat render, K-Rend, Weber, Parex, Wetherby, is sensitive. Pressure washing scours it, opens the surface to water ingress and ruins the finish. The right method is soft wash: a biocide that kills the algae and red lichen at root, followed by a gentle rinse. The render returns to its original colour over a few weeks as rain carries the dead growth away.
