What does render cleaning involve?
Render cleaning is an essential service to maintain the appearance and longevity of rendered surfaces on both residential and commercial buildings. Over time, dirt, algae and moss can grow on the exterior of your rendered property, making it look dirty and uncared for. The main benefit of having your home or business professionally cleaned will make your property appear new, completely restoring its appearance. Whether it’s K-rend, Weber, Monocouche, or another type of render, we can help transform the exterior of your property.

Why Cleaning Your Render Is Important
After years of exposure to the British weather, rendered surfaces are prone to developing mould, algae, and moss, which can stain the exterior of the building with green or black patches. Regularly cleaning your render is essential not just for maintaining your property’s appearance, but for preventing more serious and costly issues down the line.
Neglecting render maintenance can lead to water damage, cracking, and even insect infestations, all of which can compromise the structural integrity of your building. By keeping your render clean, you protect your investment, extend its lifespan, and avoid the need for expensive repairs in the future. Rendering a property isn’t cheap, so why not keep up with the maintenance to increase the lifespan of the building?
What are the Benefits of Cleaning Your Render
There are many benefits to keeping your render clean and well-maintained. Some of these include:
- Prevents green or black staining caused by algae, mould, and moss, keeping your property’s exterior looking fresh and attractive.
- Regular cleaning can prevent long-term damage such as water penetration, cracking, and even insect infestations, saving you from costly repairs.
- By maintaining your render, you extend its lifespan, ensuring it continues to protect your property from the elements.
- A clean, well-kept exterior enhances your property’s appeal, increasing its overall value if you ever decide to sell.
Render Cleaning FAQs
Although there is no rule on how frequently you should have your render cleaned, it’s typically recommended you have it cleaned at least once per year. Having your property cleaned once a year will ensure it stays looking its best and does not accumulate much dirt or staining.
No, our professional render cleaning services ensure that the render on your property is not damaged when we clean it. We will remove all of the dirt and staining on the surface of your property, completely restoring it to how it first looked when it was originally rendered.
While some homeowners attempt DIY render cleaning, we recommend using a professional, like Insulated Rendering Company, to clean your render. Render cleaning requires specific tools, equipment and techniques which if done incorrectly, can damage the render resulting in costly repairs.
Pricing varies on the size of the property, and how dirty or damaged the render is. For example, a 100-square-metre home would cost much less in comparison to a 500-square-metre commercial building. The size and condition of the render is relative to the cost. For a cost estimate on render cleaning, contact our specialists today.
While we are a Bristol-based company, we do carry out projects throughout the surrounding South Werst areas. Some of these areas include Bath, Salisbury, Chippenham, Swindon, Trowbridge, Westbury and more. If your property is outside these areas, please still get in contact as we may still be able to help.
Because insulated rendering is considered ‘permitted development’, it doesn’t typically require planning permission to start the work. That being said, if the thickness of EWI would interfere with somebody’s land or property, your home is a listed building, or your local authority doesn’t allow special colours in your area, you may require planning permission for EWI.
