Service overview

Fascia & Soffit Cleaning — done properly, the first time.

What it is

A specialist fascia and soffit clean restores the white plastic boards running along your roofline. We hand-finish every length, lift algae and streak marks, and check the fixings, joints and gutter brackets as we go.

Who it's for

Suitable for any home with uPVC fascia, soffit and barge boards. Also works on traditional painted timber rooflines, with a gentler technique.

When you need it

Most homes benefit every 1–2 years. Streaking and algae build particularly fast under tree cover, on north-facing elevations and on shaded sides of the house.

Why professional matters

Dirty fascias don't damage the property structurally, but they massively impact kerb appeal — and they're the single most-noticed thing on the front of a home alongside the driveway. A £100 clean transforms how the house reads from the road.

What happens if ignored

The cost of putting it off.

Fascia and soffit boards take the brunt of rain run-off, leaf debris and bird droppings. Left untreated they streak, yellow and grow algae — and once that takes hold it doesn't simply wash off in the rain.

Real risks

  • Algae pitting on prolonged neglect — eventually penetrating the protective film and causing permanent dulling.
  • Soffit ventilation blocked by debris build-up, restricting loft airflow and contributing to condensation.
  • Bird and insect nesting in unmaintained soffit joints, leading to noise, mess and removal cost.
  • Streaking and discolouration that no amount of further weathering will reverse.
  • Visibly tired roofline that drops perceived property value at the front door.

Common mistakes

  • Scrubbing fascias with an abrasive pad and permanently scratching the surface.
  • Spraying bleach upwards, running corrosive liquid into the soffit cavity and behind the gutter.
  • High-pressure washing forcing water into the fascia/soffit joint and through to the timber fixing point underneath.
  • Cleaning the front and ignoring the rear, where most algae actually lives.
  • Painting yellowed uPVC fascia (which never adheres long-term) instead of cleaning it.
Our process

A clear, five-step system.

  1. 01
    Step 1 — Inspection

    Every length walked under the eaves, photographed, with notes on algae, streaking, sealant condition and any movement at bracket points.

  2. 02
    Step 2 — Diagnosis

    Treatment selected — for algae, uPVC restorer for oxidation, plain detergent for traffic film. Beds and adjacent walls protected.

  3. 03
    Step 3 — Service execution

    Hand-finish with soft microfibre on every length. Reach-pole and pure-water system for upper-floor work. No abrasive pads, no high-pressure jets.

  4. 04
    Step 4 — Testing & verification

    Every elevation walked and re-inspected. Missed spots re-finished. Gutter brackets and downpipe fixings flagged where they need attention.

  5. 05
    Step 5 — Completion

    sent. 100% — anything we missed in the first week, we come back to put right.

In depth

The technical detail behind every fascia & soffit cleaning job.

Fascia and soffit cleaning sits at the intersection of two trades: cosmetic exterior cleaning and roofline maintenance. Done well, it transforms a property's appearance and catches small structural issues — loose brackets, failing sealant — before they cost real money.

Materials we work on

We clean white and coloured uPVC fascia, square-edge and ogee profiles, hollow-soffit and solid-soffit boards, ventilated soffit strips, barge boards and gable trims. Traditional timber fascias cleaned by hand with a gentler approach.

Methods we use

Hand-application with soft microfibre using approved uPVC cleaner or depending on staining type. Reach-pole and pure-water system for any work above ground floor — deionised water dries spot-free with no towel finish needed. No abrasive pads, no high-pressure jets near joints or seals.

Variations of the service

Standard front-of-house clean, full house surround (front + sides + rear), front + rear only, fascia + gutter face combined clean, barge board specialist, conservatory-roof trim clean.

Situations it applies to

Pre-sale presentation cleans, post-roofing-job clean-up (replacement gutters and fascia often arrive coated in factory grease), annual maintenance for second homes and lets, and routine 18-month cleans for owners maintaining presentation across Cheltenham, Gloucester and the Cotswolds.

Residential vs commercial

Residential is hand-finished and photographed. Commercial fascia work (small office, retail, school) scheduled with MEWP or pole access, and pre/post photo records.
