Why Alford properties need jet washing

Alford sits on the eastern edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, a little higher and more exposed than the flat fen towns further south. Rain blowing in from the north and east brings field dust with it, and the coast is only about 8 miles away. The Victorian buildings around the market and the Wolds farmhouses nearby tend to get heavy moss and lichen, and houses facing the sea can pick up a bit of salt.

Jet washing in Alford by Fenland Property Care

We work on the Victorian buildings by the market, the estates, and the Wolds farmhouses outside town, so no two Alford jobs are quite the same.

When Alford paving needs more than a hose

Clay dust comes off the Wolds farmland whenever the fields are worked, and it settles into stone and block paving. That’s why we pre-treat before the jet wash, because the deeper staining won’t lift otherwise.

βœ—
Dirt that’s set in
After a few Wolds winters the grime is too deep for a garden hose, so it needs proper pressure.
βœ—
When steps turn green
Algae makes steps slippery, especially in the shade. We kill it first and then wash it away.
βœ—
Faded paving
Block paving and stone lose their colour over time, but a careful jet wash brings most of it back.
βœ—
Moss and lichen
Lichen on exposed Wolds stone holds on hard, so it gets a treatment before any pressure goes near it.

Why Alford homeowners ring us about jet washing

πŸ†

Local experts

Every surface in Alford gets its own pressure setting, because old stonework and block paving joints can both be damaged if you rush in at full power.

πŸ’§

Matched to the surface

Soft stone gets a gentler wash than concrete, so it comes up clean and stays sound.

Fully insured

Our Β£1m public liability insurance also covers every Alford job.

If it’s outside and hard-wearing, we can probably clean it, from the front path to the back yard.

Driveways
Block paving, tarmac, concrete or stone, each washed at the pressure it can take.
Patios and paths
Patios and paths cleaned without lifting joints.
Walls and fencing
Brick, render and timber fencing washed down, though render gets a lighter touch.
Steps and doorways
Green steps by the front door cleared of algae so they’re safe again.
Garage floors
Garage floors, inside or out, degreased first and then pressure cleaned.
Decking
Timber and composite decking washed at low pressure so the boards aren’t damaged.

Jet washing in Alford, start to finish

1
Surface assessment
First we look at each surface and pick the pressure and detergent to suit it.
2
Pre-treatment
Then a cleaner or biocide goes on to break down the dirt and growth.
3
Pressure washing
After that we jet wash, adjusting the pressure as we move from one surface to the next.
4
Post-clean treatment
If the area is prone to regrowth, we finish with a biocide to slow it down.

Alford jet washing questions

Q: Do you work out on the Wolds around Alford?
A: Yes. Bilsby, Well, Beesby and Maltby le Marsh are all on our list, and we know how exposed some of the hilltop houses get.
Q: How much pressure will you use on my drive?
A: That depends on what it’s made of. Soft stone might only see around 1,500 psi, while a concrete drive can take 3,000 psi or more.
Q: Can decking be jet washed?
A: Yes, but at low pressure, so the grain on timber or composite boards doesn’t lift.
Q: Will oil stains come off the drive?
A: Most will. We put a degreaser down first because it gets much more out than pressure alone.

From the initial consultation through to the completion of our roof cleaning, including the thorough removal of all debris afterwards, the Fenland Property Care team were consistently professional, courteous and meticulous. We were also very pleased with the cost of the works, which represented excellent value for the service provided.

The operative arrived on time, as arranged. Brought the necessary kit to clean an accumulation of dirt, weeds and debris over several years from our drive and patio. This was accomplished by the end of the working day when all was looking pristine. Surfaces had been cleaned down. A week later they were back to fill the gaps with kiln dried sand and now it looks like new.

Absolutely brilliant service. Very professional and friendly. Came to give a quote and was pleasantly surprised. My front and back garden look brand new. All slabs are the original colour and weedless and the front is weed free and looks amazing. They worked really hard throughout the day and also returned to finish the work, due to really hot weather. Very good customer service, had a concer and called me back within 30 minutes. Would definitely recommend πŸ‘Œ

An excellent job. From start to finish what an absolute pleasure. No pushy salesman just an authentic genuine quote. Even when I added a couple of bits, nothing was too much trouble. The price was really good too. Paul and Dale turned up on time on the date stated. Even though the weather was horrible they got cracked on with the job. They grafted all the time they were there. The work carried out was exceptionally good. They cleaned up all of the mess afterwards and let the place spotless. I cannot praise them enough. They treated my mum and her bungalow with the utmost respect.

Fenland did a great job cleaning and re-sanding my block paving path and my patio. Polite and efficient and cleaned the doors and windows where the dirt had splashed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Paul cleaned my drive, paths and patio the other day and I have never seen them look so clean. He cleaned the windows and left everything clean and tidy. We were very pleased with the way he worked and have had a lots of compliments from other people. We would not hesitate to recommend his work.
