Commercial Pressure Washing in Tiverton
Car parks, forecourts and tarmac brought back from grimy to clean — measured by the square metre. We work all over Tiverton and the surrounding Devon area — Tiverton town centre & Westexe, Grand Western Canal, Blundell's School and the towns between.

The Moore & Franks approach in Tiverton
Tiverton's commercial hard surfaces sit in a damp wooded valley where the Exe meets the Lowman, and that setting keeps them green. The car parks and shop forecourts around the town centre and Westexe, the trade units off the Great Western Way and out toward the business park, and the yards serving local industry all stay shaded and slow to dry, so moss and algae build steadily on block paving and tarmac. No sea salt this far inland, but the trade-off is constant shade, leaf fall off the canal and Lowman trees, and slow-drying surfaces that hold organic growth. We bring rotary flat-surface cleaners for the bigger lots and lift the lot cleanly without churning the paving. Twenty-five years, insured to £5m, free quote.
Inland and hemmed in by woodland, Tiverton's yards and car parks grow moss where a coastal site would only get salt film. Thick, spongy moss holds water and roots into the surface, and it needs lifting mechanically rather than just rinsing — the rotary head shears it off cleanly and the hot water kills off what is left in the pores. On a heavily mossed lot that is the difference between a wash that lasts and one that is green again by spring.
We cover Tiverton regularly from our base near Exeter, so an early start on a Westexe forecourt or a phased wash of a business-park car park is all straightforward. Most commercial work here gets done outside trading hours or split into sections, so shops keep their parking and units keep their access while we clean. The timing is fixed on the quote, and there is no premium hidden in the price for the run up the valley.
Surfaces dry slowly here and the green returns faster than owners expect, so a single clean is not always the best value. For yards under heavy tree cover, a yearly wash keeps the moss from ever getting a proper hold. We will price a one-off happily, but we will also tell you plainly how long it is likely to stay clean here, so you can decide what is worth it.
Our Tiverton customers are typically within 25 minutes of our Exeter base. We cover the wider EX16 postcode area and the surrounding villages (Tiverton town centre & Westexe, Grand Western Canal, Blundell's School, Bolham & Knightshayes, Chettiscombe, Elmore).

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the questions we get asked the most. If yours isn't here, drop us a line — we reply same day.
It is a free, written quote, not a fixed rate — priced by the square metre once we have seen the size, surface and access. A thickly mossed, shaded yard takes more work per metre than a clean lot, so the state of the surface counts alongside how large it is.
Yes — the town centre and Westexe, the trade units along the Great Western Way, the business park, and out toward Bolham, Chettiscombe and Elmore. We cover EX16 regularly from our base near Exeter, so shop forecourts and industrial yards alike are no problem.
The rotary head shears the moss off at surface level, and a hot-water pass kills the spores left in the pores so it is slower to return. On soft or older surfaces we ease the pressure to clean without gouging, then clear the loosened moss away rather than leaving it to re-root.
No — there is no hidden travel premium in the quote. We cover Tiverton regularly, work early, late or in phased sections to keep your site usable, and agree the timing up front. Every enquiry gets a same-day reply and a firm booking date.
