How Long Does an Exterior Clean Last?
There is no single answer. Shade, trees and weather decide.

The short answer
It depends on the surface, the shade, nearby trees and the weather. Growth can return because the conditions that caused it are still there. We can give you an honest idea for your property, and a regular visit is the way to keep it looking its best.
What affects how long it lasts
- Shade and how much sun the surface gets
- Trees, hedges and leaf fall nearby
- Which way the surface faces
- Rain, damp and how well the surface drains
Cleaning vs treatment
Cleaning removes what is there. A treatment is aimed at slowing regrowth. Neither is a promise that growth will never come back.
Keeping it looking good
Regular visits, clear gutters and trimmed trees all help. We can talk through a sensible plan for your property.
