07725 314415Family-run. Devon-based. 25 years of work behind us.
Moore & Franks is the family business we both wanted to work for — small enough that you talk to the people on the tools, big enough to insure to £5m and tackle anything from a single gutter to a full estate of render.
Get in touch
A quarter of a century of Devon exteriors.
We started cleaning Devon roofs and renders before "soft wash" was a marketed phrase — back when the only way to clean a tile was to climb up and scrape it by hand. Twenty-five years on, the methods have evolved (biocide chemistry, carbon-fibre poles, DOFF steam) but the standards haven't. Every job that leaves our diary leaves it the way we'd want our own home left.
We're proud to still be family-run. The same two people that put the first van on the road are still in the seat. We've added equipment, trained operators and grown the coverage area, but the principle is unchanged: if you can't stand behind it personally, don't quote for it.
Today we cover Exeter (HQ), Tiverton (second base), and out to Exmouth, Newton Abbot, Plymouth and Torquay. We do domestic and commercial, one-offs and recurring contracts, ordinary cleans and full heritage DOFF work. If it's exterior, biological, and on a Devon property — it's probably ours.
Five things you'll notice that you might not on every quote.
25 years on the tools
Same family, same trade, two-and-a-half decades. The depth of experience shows in the quote, the method choice, and the result.
Insured to £5 million
Comprehensive public liability cover plus Employers' Liability cover. Documentation available on request — we encourage you to ask.
Biocide-first, never brute force
Our default is soft-wash and chemistry. Pressure washing has its place — but not on tiles, render or anything we'd be replacing afterwards.
Family-run, not a franchise
The same two-person team that started Moore & Franks is still hands-on every day. No call-centres, no white-labelled subcontractors.
Trained and certified
Operators trained to HSE and environmental standards. Stonehealth-approved DOFF system for heritage and listed work.
"We love what we do, and it shows in our work. From rooftops and renders to solar panels and patios — the same level of care goes into every visit."
