The Moore & Franks approach in Topsham

Topsham's commercial life clusters tight along Fore Street and the Quay — independent shops, the riverside pubs, Darts Farm's busy retail and the car parks that serve them. Sitting on the tidal Exe, the paving and forecourts here stay damp from estuary mist and salt air, so block paving greens over and the cobbled and slabbed frontages by the Strand pick up algae fast. Footfall from the weekend visitors leaves gum and spillage on the hard standing, and leaf fall off the town's mature limes washes grime across the tarmac. We're based right here on Ferryman Way in Topsham, minutes away, and clean everything from a small paved entrance to a full trade car park. Twenty-five years in, insured to £5m, free quote.

Our yard sits on Ferryman Way, a few streets from most of Topsham's trade, and that changes what we can offer. An early wash on a shop forecourt before the doors open, or a quick return to reach a patch we could not get to round a parked delivery van — that flexibility comes from being on the doorstep. There is no travel premium buried in the price and no half-day minimum to cover a long drive that never happens.

On a bigger managed site — the kind with a health-and-safety officer and a sign-in book — we put method statements and RAMS in writing before we start, and we carry five million pounds of public liability cover. That paperwork is not box-ticking. It means the site manager knows exactly how we are protecting cars, glazing and pedestrians while a rotary head runs across an open car park. Two of us, father and son, both across the safe method.

Being on the tidal Exe, Topsham paving greens back over quicker than it would on higher, drier ground, so a one-and-done clean is not always the sensible spend. For riverside businesses we will often suggest a light annual refresh rather than leaving it until the surface is properly slippery and needs a heavy going-over. We can quote it either way, and because we are minutes up the lane, dropping back for a top-up wash costs you next to nothing in call-out.

Our Topsham customers are typically within 10 minutes of our Exeter base. We cover the wider EX3 postcode area and the surrounding villages (The Strand & the Quay, Goat Walk riverside path, Bowling Green Marsh, Fore Street, Darts Farm, Topsham Lock).

FAQ

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 quote rather than a fixed price list. We measure the area and check the surface and how easy it is to reach, then cost it by the square metre. Tight quayside frontages where access is fiddly can work out dearer per metre than a big open yard, so we always see it first.

All of EX3 — the Strand and the Quay, Fore Street, out past Bowling Green Marsh and along to Darts Farm and Topsham Lock. Our base is right here on Ferryman Way, so there is nowhere in town we cannot get to quickly, whatever the surface.

Yes. On period cobbles and worn stone slabs we drop the pressure and let the rotary head's even spread do the work, rather than driving a lance hard into the joints and blowing out the pointing. The older surfaces near the Strand get the gentler treatment they need.

Rarely. We work early, late or in sections so your customers still have somewhere to park and walk. Being based here in Topsham we can slot in an odd-hours start without any fuss, and you get a same-day reply whenever you get in touch.
