Below are answers to the most common questions facility managers, property managers, and building owners ask when scheduling commercial exterior maintenance.
We offer a full range of exterior maintenance, including high-pressure drive and pathway washing, soft-wash building envelope cleaning, gutter clearance, cladding restoration, and internal/external window cleaning for commercial and public sector properties.
Pressure washing uses high-pressure water to blast away heavy dirt, moss, and grime from hard surfaces like concrete, tarmac, and block paving. Soft washing uses low pressure combined with specialized, eco-friendly biocides to safely remove algae, lichen, and organic staining from delicate building cladding, render, and signage without causing surface erosion.
Safety is our top priority. Our teams utilize water-fed pole systems for window and cladding cleaning up to high levels from the ground. For higher structures, our staff are trained in mobile elevated work platform (MEWP) operation, working fully in compliance with IPAF guidelines and site-specific RAMS.
Yes. Partnered with Peninsula, our health and safety practices stay current. We complete site-specific Risk Assessments and Method Statements (RAMS) prior to every job, manage water run-off responsibly, and use fully compliant, biodegradable cleaning agents that meet environmental standards.
Yes. To avoid access disruption, overspray risk to parked vehicles, or hazards to pedestrians and staff, we routinely schedule exterior cleaning during early mornings, evenings, or weekends when your site is clear.
In most cases, we connect to an external commercial water supply on your premises. However, if your site lacks accessible water points, we can bring self-contained mobile water tanks and bowsers to complete the work without delay.
Commercial gutters should be cleared at least once or twice a year—ideally in late autumn and spring—to prevent blockages, water ingress, and structural damage. Building cladding and exterior pathways typically require annual or bi-annual washing to maintain slip safety and brand presentation.
Yes. All Cleanforce technicians are directly employed, uniformed, fully insured, and hold DBS clearance. This allows us to work safely around sensitive environments, including schools, council buildings, and healthcare sites.
Over time, algae, moss, and buildup turn wet footpaths, fire escapes, and loading bays into dangerous slip hazards. Pressure washing and anti-fungal treatments restore surface traction, helping you maintain a safe environment for visitors and staff.
We conduct a comprehensive site survey to assess access requirements, surface area, water points, and required equipment. You receive a transparent, fixed-price quote detailing the complete scope of work with zero hidden extras.
The exterior of your commercial property is the first thing clients, visitors, and inspectors see. Over time, South West weather, vehicle exhaust, moss, algae, and industrial pollution cause cladding, render, pathways, and windows to look neglected. Left unchecked, organic growth causes long-term structural damage, blocks drainage systems, and creates dangerous slip hazards on pedestrian walkways.
Since 2008, Cleanforce has provided commercial exterior cleaning built on safety, reliability, and visible results. Using specialized pressure washing, soft-washing equipment, and high-access reach systems, we help property managers, schools, and business owners protect their building assets and maintain a spotless corporate image from the outside in.
Our exterior cleaning process begins with a detailed site safety audit to select the safest and most effective method for each surface material. We match pressure levels, cleaning agents, and access equipment specifically to render, brickwork, metal cladding, or glass to ensure deep cleaning without risk of damage.
From clearing blocked high-level gutters to restoring discolored cladding and high-traffic concrete walkways, our uniformed teams operate with thorough discipline. Backed by site-specific RAMS and strict safety measures, we deliver a clean, safe, and welcoming exterior environment.
We bring the personal approach and direct accountability of a family-run business to every job. You work directly with a team that takes pride in high standards, clear timelines, and open communication.
Our operatives are trained for high-access tasks, utilizing water-fed poles and MEWPs safely. Supported by Peninsula for health and safety, every job is backed by comprehensive RAMS and COSHH compliance.
All operatives are directly employed, insured, uniformed, and DBS-checked. You can trust our team to operate securely on active sites, educational campuses, and public council facilities.
We schedule exterior cleaning around your operational requirements. By working outside trading hours, we eliminate slip risks to pedestrians, avoid traffic disruption, and keep your site running smoothly.
Backed by our Mobile Support Team, we adapt quickly to short-notice requests, urgent safety hazard clearances, or pre-inspection tidies without delaying your schedule.
We provide clear, detailed quotations following a site inspection. You get fixed costs, clear scopes of work, and reliable service delivery with zero unexpected fees.
Don’t let weather stains, moss, or dirty windows compromise your property’s safety or professional appearance. Contact Cleanforce today to arrange your site survey and receive a fixed exterior cleaning quotation.
Genuine projects completed for contractors, schools, retailers and commercial landlords in the South West.
Another project completed for Obedair at the University of Plymouth — a full builder's clean followed by the final sparkle clean.
When we took over this contract the floors had been through a lot. We tested different scrubbing machines and chemicals until we found what worked. Not an instant transformation, but with the right system in place these floors will be bright and welcoming again.
We carry out several site welfare cleans each week – and with the weather as it is, the moment it's spotless the mud is back again. Keeping welfare areas clean, safe and usable is the job, whatever the conditions.
We walk the building with you, note the high-traffic areas, specialist floors and access constraints, then quote against a written specification and schedule.
Staff are assigned, inducted and introduced to your contract manager. Materials, machinery and consumables are set up before the first clean.
Your contract manager audits the site regularly, the mobile team covers gaps, and the specification is adjusted whenever your requirements move on.
Our base is in Plymouth and our teams work across Devon, Cornwall and the wider South West, including multi-site contracts. Not sure if we reach you? Ask and we will tell you straight.
