Pressure Washing in Cullompton

The Moore & Franks approach in Cullompton

Cullompton's old wool-town heart, with its timbered buildings and the historic Walronds, sits in the flat Culm valley where the river and the M5 both run close. It's a damp, low spot, so paths green over, patios grow slippery and the agricultural traffic in and out of town leaves drives caked in mud. Moore & Franks handle the lot, from a heritage stone forecourt that needs a gentle touch to a working farmhouse drive that needs grunt. We match pressure to surface every time. Family-run, 25 years in the trade and insured to £5m, we cover the Mid Devon area and leave every job clean, tidy and noticeably brighter.

Knightswood, Colebrook and the growing estates off Honiton Road hold most of Cullompton's modern block-paved drives, and after a few winters they green over on the shaded sides and lose their crisp finish. This is straightforward, satisfying work: we lift the algae and ingrained dirt, dig the weeds from the joints, and re-sand the paving so it locks back together and looks freshly laid. Decking and astroturf in the newer gardens get the same careful, low-pressure treatment.

The historic core around Fore Street and St Andrew's is a different world: cob, lime render and old clay-tiled thresholds, much of it listed or in the conservation area, where a careless blast does real and lasting harm. On those surfaces we work at a gentle pressure or soft wash, lifting the growth while leaving soft old fabric untouched. Getting that judgement right is exactly what protects a listed frontage rather than damaging it.

Sitting low in the valley with farmland on every edge, the town collects pollen, field dust and organic muck that settle into paving and feed the green film, and the shaded, slow-drying ground keeps it coming back. An optional biocide top-coat after a clean holds it off for longer. We cover Mid Devon on weekdays, from eight to five, quote every job free and in writing, and reply the same day you make contact.
