Exterior Cleaning in Rainford

Rainford sits on the rural edge of St Helens, and the work here looks nothing like a city round. The village is dominated by detached and semi-detached housing with generous plots, mature trees along Church Road, Higher Lane and the surrounding lanes, and a good deal of older brick and stone property mixed in with post-war and modern development. Big roofs, long gutter runs and tree cover in combination mean two things arrive on almost every job sheet: roof moss and blocked guttering.

The rural setting is the deciding factor. Sheltered aspects, hedgerows and mature trees hold moisture against north-facing roof slopes, so moss establishes quickly and thickly on concrete and clay tiles. That moss then breaks down and washes into the gutters, where it silts up runs and outlets far faster than in open suburban streets. Most Rainford customers end up on an annual gutter clear alongside periodic roof soft washing, and the pole-based methods we use suit the village well because access around mature planting and gravel drives is rarely ladder-friendly.
