Doff Steam Cleaning and Restoration Services | Softwashing UK

At Softwashing UK, we have successfully used the Doff Steam cleaning system to restore and clean hundreds of buildings and monuments across the UK. Known for its exceptional results, Doff Steam cleaning is the benchmark for stone substrate cleaning and restoration. Used to maintain some of the UK's most historic buildings, Doff is the ideal solution for delicate and tough cleaning tasks alike. Highly recommended for many restoration projects, Doff uses high temperatures that often eliminate the need for chemical treatments, providing an eco-friendly and effective solution.

What is Doff Steam Cleaning?

The Doff Steam cleaning system heats water to temperatures of up to 150 degrees Celsius. At these high temperatures, it effectively eradicates organic growths such as moss, algae, lichen, and fungi. Doff can also remove paint and graffiti, eliminating the need for harsh chemical cleaners in many cases. The high heat targets and kills organic growth at its root system, ensuring more thorough and lasting results.

How Does Doff Steam Cleaning Work?

Unlike traditional pressure washing that relies on high pressure to force contamination off surfaces, Doff uses steam generated at 150°C. This method uses heat rather than raw power to clean. The steam is discharged at low pressure, in small amounts, allowing surfaces to dry quickly. This combination of heat and low pressure reduces the risk of damage and often eliminates the need for chemical cleaning treatments, making it a gentler and more eco-friendly option for restoration.

Which Surfaces Can Doff Steam Cleaning Be Used On?

Doff is incredibly versatile and can be used on a wide variety of substrates. It is ideal for stone, ceramic tiles, concrete, and wood, making it a great choice for both outdoor and indoor cleaning. Doff is particularly effective for cleaning and restoring render surfaces, though it is always advisable to consult with us before using Doff on certain render types to ensure it is suitable.

How Sustainable Is Doff Steam Cleaning?

One of the main benefits of Doff Steam cleaning is its eco-friendly nature. Since no chemicals are used, there is no need to collect or segregate run-off water. The steam-based system is safe to allow to flow back into the environment, making it a highly sustainable cleaning method. In addition, Doff is energy and water-efficient, using minimal resources while delivering powerful results.
