Exterior cleaning in Stoke Bishop, Bristol
Stoke Bishop is large detached houses on wide plots with long driveways and heavy mature tree cover. The scale changes the job: bigger roof areas, longer drives, and far more leaf litter than a terraced street ever produces.

Big roofs, mature trees, and doing it once
A Stoke Bishop roof under mature beech or oak carries leaf litter as well as moss, and the litter is what blocks the valleys and the hopper heads. Clearing the gutter without treating the roof buys you a season. We soft-wash the slopes with a residual biocide, clear the full perimeter including valleys and hoppers, and film the runs so you can see the fall. On a long drive we work in sections with a rotary head so the finish is consistent end to end — a drive cleaned in patches always shows.
Site visits and written quotes
Properties this size are quoted after a site visit rather than from a photo, because the roof area, the drive length and the access all move the number. Parking is on the drive, so nothing sits on the road. Where there is a pool, a planted terrace or specimen planting along the working line, we sheet it before any biocide goes on.
Frequently asked questions
Do you quote from photos on a house this size?
We will give you a range from photos, but the firm number comes after a site visit. Roof area, drive length and access are the three things that move it, and none of them read accurately off a phone picture.
How do you stop the biocide reaching the planting?
We sheet the working line and pre-wet the beds so anything that carries is diluted on contact. On specimen planting we say up front if we would rather work around it than over it.
Can you clear the valleys and hoppers as well as the gutters?
Yes, and on a house this size that is where the actual problem usually is. Gutters are the symptom; the valley or the hopper head is normally the cause.
