Up on the hill, jet washing in Caistor is mostly lichen and limestone marks. We clean drives, patios, walls and steps.
Caistor is one of the highest market towns on the Lincolnshire Wolds, and being up on the hill makes a difference. Rain comes in on the wind from all sides, so moss and lichen still grow well even though it’s drier than the fen towns. The local stone can leave mineral marks on walls and paving too. Houses right at the top get the worst of the weather, and those on the more sheltered eastern slopes see more ordinary moss and algae.
On a Wolds hilltop the trouble is usually mineral staining from the limestone, as well as lichen on surfaces that catch all the wind and sun.
Caistor is exposed, so over a year the wind leaves a film of dust on everything outside. A jet wash lifts it, but near the old town centre we turn the pressure right down because lime mortar washes out easily.
Since so much of Caistor is old limestone, we check each surface and use a setting that cleans it without loosening joints or wearing the face.
Older stone gets a softer wash, while modern paving can take more.
