Devon's roofs, render & gutters restored.
Soft-wash specialists with 25 years across Devon — moss, algae and grime lifted without a single tile loosened. Fully insured to £5,000,000, family-run from day one.
Specialist exterior cleaning. One trained team.
From a single gutter clear to a full render clean, everything we offer is delivered by the same family-run team. No subbing out, no surprises.
The same hands today as two decades ago.
Moore & Franks is family-run, and has been since the start. A quarter of a century of Devon roofs, render and heritage stone — the kind of track record a new national franchise simply can't buy. When we say soft-wash is the only safe method, it's 25 years of seeing the alternative go wrong.
For listed and heritage stone we run the Stonehealth DOFF system — superheated steam at low pressure, gentle on the substrate, lethal to growth, dry in minutes. The method conservation officers expect to see.

Our photos. Our roofs. No stock images.
Drag the slider to see the difference for yourself — this is a real Devon roof, before and after a Moore & Franks soft-wash. The rest is recent work from across the county.


Covering Devon — Exeter to Plymouth.
Two bases (Exeter HQ + Tiverton landline), one Devon-wide team. From Exeter, East and Mid Devon down the coast to Torbay and Plymouth — we're almost certainly already in your postcode this week.
What our customers say
Two-and-a-half decades of referrals and repeat work. Here's a few words from people we've cleaned for.
“Wonderful customer service from Steve who did a fantastic job. He clearly has a great eye for detail. I highly recommend Moore & Franks.”
“Recently had the gutters, fascias, conservatory and pressure washing carried out on our house. Results amazing, done quickly and without fuss. This is the second time we have used the father and son team and would do so again without question. Thoroughly recommend this company.”
“A very professional company and extremely reliable! Steve turned up with his colleague and did an excellent job cleaning my guttering and fascia boards. They are a very friendly company and not overpriced. Highly recommended!”

Soft washing uses chemistry (a biodegradable biocide) at low pressure. Pressure washing uses force. For roofs, render and most vertical surfaces, soft washing is the only safe method. Pressure washing has its place — driveways, patios, paths — but not on tiles or rendered walls.
