uPVC Cleaning in Sidmouth

The Moore & Franks approach in Sidmouth

Sidmouth's Regency seafront and the smart villas climbing the hills behind it are a long way from cheap uPVC — but plenty of these homes still rely on white frames, doors and conservatory roofs that the salt air punishes. Sitting in a sheltered bowl on the Jurassic Coast, the town traps damp, and red-cliff dust and sea salt settle on every south-facing sill. White goes dull, greens creep up the shaded sides. Moore & Franks clean coastal uPVC the right way, lifting salt and algae without scratching the surface, leaving frames bright enough to suit a town this proud of its looks.

Sidmouth keeps its frontages smart, and the 1930s semis around Woolbrook and Sidford are where uPVC does most of the work — full-height bay frames, fascias and the odd conservatory, all under the heavy canopy off Peak Hill. That shade keeps the boards damp and green far longer than the sunnier seafront. We clean them with a gentle solution and soft brushing, lifting the moss-like film off the trim without marking the plastic.

Hemmed between Peak Hill and Salcombe Hill, the town sits in a bowl that traps damp, and grit washing off the slopes settles into every sill and window channel. Around Connaught Gardens and the upper roads the tree shade never lets a north wall dry. We clear the built-up film from frames, drainage channels and porch trim so windows open and close cleanly again and the white reads as white rather than grey-green.

Out on the Bowd and Sidbury estates the render is modern silicone and K-Rend, and the uPVC beside it greens over quickly in the marine damp. Owners here tend to keep on top of appearances, and a regular clean of the cladding, sills and conservatory roof suits that. Because the sea air keeps working year-round, a wash every twelve months or so holds the finish far better than leaving it until the grime has properly set.
