Play Park & Soft-Surface Sanitising in Teignmouth
DOFF III superheated steam sanitising for play parks, changing rooms and soft play — no harsh chemicals. We work all over Teignmouth and the surrounding Devon area — The Den & seafront, Shaldon Bridge, Teignmouth Pier and the towns between.

The Moore & Franks approach in Teignmouth
With the sea on one side and the Teign estuary on the other, Teignmouth's play areas get damp coming at them from both directions. The play park near The Den, the soft surfaces behind the Triangle and the school playgrounds climbing toward Bishopsteignton all sit in sea fret and marine moisture that keeps wet-pour and rubber matting green and slick. Wind-driven leaves off Coombe Vale settle into the surfacing and stain it. We bring our DOFF III superheated-steam unit in to sanitise frames, soft-play, changing rooms and matting — clearing algae, salt film and leaf staining with completely non-hazardous, child-safe products. Family-run from along the coast, fully insured to £5m, twenty-five years at it, free quote on request.
The part of a play park that a cursory clean always misses is the hands-and-mouths detail — the tops of springers, the grab-rails, the moulded seats and the low bars toddlers pull on. On a busy Teignmouth site those contact points collect residue, grime and the biological film the marine damp encourages. DOFF III steam sanitises them at temperature, driving into textured grips and joints where a brush simply skates over. It's the difference between a surface that looks clean and one that actually is.
Teignmouth's soft surfaces run from the exposed seafront play areas down by the Den to the school playgrounds climbing toward Bishopsteignton, and plenty of the sports clubs here have changing rooms and pavilions that come with the same job. The steam system handles all of it — tiled changing-room floors, benches and matting as readily as wet-pour and climbing frames. There's no strong chemical smell left for the next people in, and the surfaces are usable again quickly rather than out of action.
Sitting where sea and estuary meet, Teignmouth surfaces green back up sooner than inland ones, so we're straight with owners about what to expect. A single sanitise won't hold forever on a shaded, damp site — but done at the right time of year it keeps a park presentable through the busy months, and a non-hazardous sanitiser laid over the top slows the return. We'd rather set a sensible interval than sell you visits the equipment doesn't need.
Our Teignmouth customers are typically within 25 minutes of our Exeter base. We cover the wider TQ14 postcode area and the surrounding villages (The Den & seafront, Shaldon Bridge, Teignmouth Pier, The Triangle, Bishopsteignton, Coombe Vale).
A clear, repeatable process.
No surprises, no upsells. The same method every job — that's how you get the same result every time.

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.
We quote every job free once we've seen it — there's no set rate. Size and exposure are the main factors: a sheltered school playground is quick, while a weathered seafront play area near the Den, thick with marine film, takes longer. You'll get a clear written price with no obligation to proceed.
The whole town and around it — the seafront and Triangle play areas, the school grounds toward Bishopsteignton and Coombe Vale, and over the bridge to Shaldon. If your play park, soft-play or changing room sits in the TQ14 postcode, we'll come to it.
No. The DOFF III cleans through heat at low pressure, which lifts grime and sanitises tiled floors, grout, benches and matting without scouring them. It leaves no strong chemical smell either, so a Teignmouth clubhouse is usable again shortly after we've finished.
Message or call for a same-day reply, then we'll come and look and put a free written quote to you. We work Monday to Friday, eight till five, as a two-man family firm, and schedule the actual work outside session or opening hours so nothing has to close.
