Keep your home looking clean, well-maintained and inviting with professional exterior house cleaning from Thames Face Clean.
Over time, exterior surfaces can become covered with dirt, algae, moss, mould, pollution and weather-related staining. These contaminants can make your property look tired and, if left untreated, may contribute to the deterioration of some exterior surfaces.
We provide professional exterior cleaning for homes across Twickenham, Richmond, Teddington, Hampton, Kingston, East Sheen and surrounding areas of West and South West London.
Our approach is simple: we assess the surface first, choose an appropriate cleaning method and carry out the work carefully using professional equipment.
What Is Exterior House Cleaning?
Exterior house cleaning is the professional cleaning of the outside surfaces of your property.
Depending on the condition and materials of your home, this may include cleaning walls, render, brickwork, cladding, patios, driveways, paths and other outdoor surfaces.
Different materials require different cleaning methods. Some surfaces can be cleaned with pressure washing, while more delicate areas may require soft washing or lower-pressure cleaning.
At Thames Face Clean, we assess each surface before cleaning so we can use a suitable method for the property.
Our Exterior House Cleaning Services
Our exterior cleaning service can cover a range of areas around your property.
House Exterior Washing
Remove accumulated dirt, dust, algae, atmospheric pollution and surface staining from exterior walls and other areas of your home.
If you specifically need the walls and exterior of your house washed, see our Exterior House Washing service.
Render & Wall Cleaning
Rendered and painted walls can collect algae, dirt, mould and atmospheric staining over time. We use appropriate cleaning methods to improve their appearance while taking care of the underlying surface.
Cladding Cleaning
Exterior cladding can become dirty and stained from exposure to rain, pollution, algae and general weathering. Professional cleaning can help restore a cleaner appearance without using unnecessarily aggressive methods.
Patio Cleaning
Patios can become slippery and discoloured because of algae, moss, dirt and weather exposure. Professional cleaning helps restore the appearance of outdoor areas and improve their overall condition.
Driveway Cleaning
Driveways are exposed to constant foot and vehicle traffic and can accumulate dirt, algae, moss, weeds and staining.
We clean suitable driveway surfaces using methods selected according to the material and condition.
Pathway & Walkway Cleaning
Paths and walkways can become dirty, slippery and stained over time. Cleaning these surfaces can make outdoor areas look cleaner and more presentable.
Roof Cleaning
Roof cleaning is available as a separate specialist service. If your roof has moss, algae or other organic growth, we can assess the condition and recommend an appropriate cleaning method.
Surfaces We Can Clean
Exterior cleaning requirements vary from property to property. Depending on the material and condition, we can clean surfaces such as:
- Brickwork
- Render
- Cladding
- Concrete
- Patios
- Driveways
- Paths and walkways
- Garden walls
- Fences
- Other suitable exterior surfaces
Before starting work, we assess the surface to determine the most appropriate cleaning method.
Pressure Washing vs Soft Washing
Not every exterior surface should be treated with the same amount of pressure.
Pressure washing uses higher water pressure and is generally suited to durable surfaces where this method is appropriate.
Soft washing uses lower pressure together with suitable cleaning solutions to treat organic growth such as algae, mould and mildew on more delicate surfaces.
The right method depends on the material, condition and type of contamination. Our team assesses the surface before choosing the cleaning approach.
Why Clean Your Home’s Exterior?
Regular exterior cleaning can help:
- Improve your property’s kerb appeal
- Remove dirt, algae, moss and surface staining
- Keep outdoor areas cleaner and more presentable
- Help maintain exterior surfaces
- Improve the appearance of walls, patios and driveways
- Reduce the time and effort required for DIY cleaning
Cleaning does not guarantee that every stain or mark will disappear. Some permanent staining, oil marks, weathering or surface damage may remain or require specialist treatment.
Our Exterior Cleaning Process
We keep the process straightforward from the initial enquiry to the completion of the work.
1. Surface Assessment
We assess the areas that need cleaning and identify the type of surface, contamination and any areas that require particular care.
2. Choose the Right Cleaning Method
We select an appropriate method based on the material and condition of the surface. This may include pressure washing, soft washing, lower-pressure cleaning or other suitable techniques.
3. Professional Cleaning
We clean the selected areas using professional equipment and appropriate cleaning methods.
4. Final Inspection
Once the cleaning is complete, we check the treated areas and make sure the property is left clean and tidy.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should a house exterior be cleaned?
There is no single schedule that suits every property. The ideal frequency depends on the location, surface material, exposure to weather, surrounding vegetation and the amount of dirt or organic growth.
Many properties benefit from periodic professional cleaning, particularly when algae, moss or staining begins to build up.
Can you remove algae, moss and mould?
Professional exterior cleaning can remove many types of organic growth and surface contamination. However, the result depends on the surface, severity of the growth and condition of the material.
Do you pressure wash every house?
No. Different surfaces require different approaches. We assess the material before choosing the cleaning method and may use soft washing or lower-pressure cleaning where appropriate.
Is exterior house cleaning safe for render and brick?
The cleaning method should always be selected according to the surface. Render, brickwork and other exterior materials may require different pressure levels and cleaning techniques.
We assess the surface before starting the work.
Can you clean patios and driveways?
Yes. Patio and driveway cleaning is part of our exterior cleaning services, subject to the material and condition of the surface.
