Algae bloom, traffic film and moss don’t just dull a building’s kerb appeal; they lock in moisture, speed up coating failure and pave the way for costly repairs.
From ground-floor brickwork to multi-storey cladding, Taylor FM’s in-house teams use low-pressure soft-wash and high-temperature steam methods to lift the grime while protecting both the surface and the environment.
We revive:
- Render
- Brick
- Stone
- Metal or composite cladding
- Roof tiles
- Canopies & entrance portals
- Gutters and downpipes

Clear gutters, dry roofs
Blocked gutters are one of the most common causes of roof leaks and damage: when debris prevents water from draining, it overflows under tiles or flashing, seeps into masonry, freezes and pries surfaces apart, and eventually stains façades and interiors alike.
Our scheduled gutter inspections, high-reach vacuum extraction and manual clearance (depending on height and access) keep your gutters and downpipes clear – saving you the far higher cost of reactive call-outs and remedial works.
Match the method to the material
Each cleaning job is approached differently to ensure you always get the best result:
- Site survey & test patch: We identify contaminants (algae, moss, carbon staining) and trial the safest detergent or biocide before full application
- Right access, all the time: Low-level work can be carried out by ladder. Higher façades are cleaned via scaffold, with MEWP/cherry picker used for areas that are hard to access.
- Cleaning method tailored to the surface: Purified-water soft-wash for delicate render, 150 °C super-heated steam for stubborn grime on masonry, or measured pressure-wash where the finish allows
- Roof-moss removal: Moss is manually scraped off followed by biocide to slow regrowth
- Gutter clear & flow-test: Debris is cleared and bagged, and downpipes flushed and tested to ensure a clear drain


Keep the glass spotless too
SIGN AND WINDOW CLEANING
A freshly washed façade still falls short if the windows look tired.
Ground-level panes, entrance doors and interior glass get the traditional mop and blade treatment for a beautiful finish, while upper floors, atriums and full-height signage are tackled with our purified water pole system – reaching up to several storeys without a ladder and drying streak-free.
Inside or out, retail property or residential housing, you’ll see the same crystal clear finish every time. No disruption, no compromise on safety – and no mismatch between spotless walls and smeared glass.
