Why Lincoln properties need jet washing

Lincoln properties have a cleaning problem most Lincolnshire towns don’t, with old limestone dust and growth from centuries of stonework up the hill and heavy clay soils lower down. Victorian terraces and Georgian townhouses in the Cathedral quarter grow thick moss and algae on north-facing walls that hardly see the sun. Down in suburbs like Bracebridge and Skellingthorpe, drives and patios collect the muddy runoff you get on Lincolnshire’s clay.

Jet washing in Lincoln by Fenland Property Care

We clean sandstone steps on the hill as well as block paving in the ring road suburbs, so each job gets its own setting and pre-treatment.

Old stone up the hill, clay down below

Lincoln has a real mix of surfaces, from old limestone flags in the Cathedral quarter to modern paving on the estates, so we’re adjusting the pressure all the time. Too much on old stone does permanent damage, while too little on clay-stained paving leaves it grey.

βœ—
When walls never see sun
North-facing walls up the hill grow thick moss and algae because they stay shaded.
βœ—
Muddy runoff
Down in the suburbs, clay washes onto drives, so the paving stains quickly.
βœ—
If paving looks grey
Stone and block paving fade, but a proper wash brings most of the colour back.
βœ—
Moss and lichen
Established growth still needs treating first, since water alone won’t kill it.

Why Lincoln homeowners choose us

πŸ†

Local experts

Because Lincoln has medieval stone as well as modern paving, we set the pressure for each surface, so nothing is scoured and no joints are blown out.

Soft wash for old stone

Period stone and lime mortar only ever get low pressure.

Jet washing services in Lincoln

These are the jobs we do most often around the city.

Driveways
Block paving, tarmac, stone and concrete, all at the right pressure.
Patios and paths
Patios, paths and courtyards cleaned so the slabs stay intact.
Walls and fences
Brick, stone and render walls, as well as timber fences.
Steps and entrances
Algae cleared from steps, so the front door is safe to reach.
Garage floors
Garage floors degreased first, then pressure cleaned, whether inside or outside.
Decking
Decking gets a low-pressure clean, because timber and composite both mark easily.

How jet washing in Lincoln works

1
Surface assessment
To start, we look at every surface and choose a pressure and detergent.
2
Pre-treatment
Then a cleaner or biocide goes on, especially where clay or moss has set in.
3
Pressure washing
Next we jet wash, though old stone gets a much lower setting than concrete.
4
Post-clean treatment
Where regrowth is likely, we finish with a biocide to slow it.

What Lincoln customers ask about jet washing

Q: Can you clean period stone and limestone properties near Lincoln Cathedral?
A: Yes. We use a low-pressure soft wash on Lincoln’s old limestone and medieval stonework, and we never use high pressure near lime mortar. We’ve cleaned homes all over the Bailgate and the Cathedral quarter.
Q: What pressure do you use on modern paving?
A: More than on stone. Medieval limestone gets around 1,500 psi or less, while hard concrete in the suburbs can take 3,000 psi or more.
Q: Do you clean decking in Lincoln?
A: Yes, at low pressure, so the grain doesn’t lift on timber or composite.
Q: Can oil be lifted from a drive?
A: Usually. A degreaser goes on first, because it gets far more out than pressure washing 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.
