uPVC Cleaning in Ottery St Mary

The Moore & Franks approach in Ottery St Mary

uPVC in Ottery St Mary battles a rural grime rather than a coastal one — the town sits inland in the Otter valley, surrounded by farmland. Here it's damp valley air, tree shade, pollen and the muck that comes with country lanes. Frames, fascias and conservatory roofs green up on the shaded sides and pick up a film of organic muck that builds quietly over the seasons. The town's cob-and-thatch heart gives way to estates with plenty of white uPVC. Moore & Franks clean it back to bright without harsh scrubbing — a Devon family firm with 25 years and £5m cover behind every job.

Country lanes bring their own kind of grime to Ottery's uPVC — mud thrown up by passing tractors, farmyard dust and a fine film of organic muck that settles low on frames, sills and door panels near the road. Out toward Cadhay and the lanes to Tipton St John it is worse than anywhere. We wash that off with a gentle cleaner and soft brushing, bringing the white back on the parts of the house that take the daily splash.

Mist lingers over the meadows below St Mary's Church well into the morning, and that damp keeps north-facing fascias and soffits green for much of the year. The mature trees lining the river and the lanes drop leaves onto conservatory roofs, where they rot into a stubborn brown film. We rinse the glazing clear and lift the algae off the surrounding trim, reaching the higher boards from the ground so nothing rests against the wall.

On the newer estates climbing toward West Hill and Tip Hill the render is K-Rend and silicone, and the uPVC beside it streaks and greens within a few years of the houses going up. Sat this deep in the valley, frames never really dry, so growth returns steadily. A wash every year or so of the cladding, sills and porch keeps that inland film from setting into the surface where it is far harder to shift.
