At Softwashing UK, we specialise in providing professional school exterior cleaning services. We understand the importance of maintaining clean, well-kept school buildings, as they play a vital role in fostering a positive environment for both students and staff. When school buildings become dirty or discoloured, it can negatively impact the morale of pupils, staff, and the wider community. That’s why we are dedicated to restoring and preserving the appearance of educational facilities with our expert cleaning services.
Schools are often home to multiple buildings of varying ages, and a one-size-fits-all approach isn’t suitable for effective exterior cleaning. At Softwashing UK, we tailor our services to meet the unique needs of each school. We begin every project with a comprehensive site survey to identify the best cleaning methods, chemicals, and equipment for each building. We also take care to address specific issues, such as removing chewing gum, graffiti, or other stubborn contaminants.
Our cleaning process involves the use of soft washing, a gentle yet highly effective cleaning technique that removes organic staining without damaging surfaces. Using a combination of biocides and steam, we target and remove algae, moss, lichen, and other organic growths that can discolour your building’s exterior. For tough stains, we employ specialist treatments to ensure your school’s exterior looks its best.
We understand the need for discretion and minimal disruption. That’s why we schedule school exterior cleaning projects to take place outside of school hours, such as during holidays or weekends, whenever possible. If a project needs to be completed urgently, we are happy to work early mornings, late evenings, or during anti-social hours to meet your deadlines.
At Softwashing UK, safety is our top priority. While we aim to complete all exterior cleaning work outside of school hours, we recognise that some pupils may still be on-site for extracurricular activities or events. To provide peace of mind, we can supply live DBS certificates for inspection before any work begins. We also offer references from other schools we’ve worked with, ensuring you’re confident in our ability to handle your project safely and professionally.
We pay special attention to high-traffic areas such as school yards and communal spaces, where chewing gum and graffiti are common problems. Our team is experienced in removing these stubborn stains efficiently and thoroughly, restoring the cleanliness of your school’s exterior. We take every step to minimise disruption to school activities during the cleaning process.
We pride ourselves on providing a cost-effective service without compromising on quality. We use access equipment only when necessary, keeping costs down while ensuring safety. Before any work begins, we provide a detailed, itemised quotation and discuss all aspects of the project, including timescales, equipment, and methods used.
At Softwashing UK, we take COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) regulations seriously, ensuring all chemicals and materials are handled safely. We supply full Risk Assessments, Method Statements, and Construction Phase Plans prior to starting the job. All projects are managed in compliance with CDM (Construction Design and Management) regulations.
We are committed to delivering school exterior cleaning projects on time and within budget, with a strong focus on safety and minimal disruption to school activities. If you’re looking for reliable and professional cleaning for your school building, contact Softwashing UK today for a no-obligation quote. Let us help you maintain a clean, welcoming environment for students and staff.
EXCELLENT Based on 56 reviews Lynnette Thomas2025-04-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A fantastic result! Can’t fault the service and highly recommend. Thank you very much! Paul Welsh2025-04-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve used Softwashing a number of times over the past few years to clean the exterior of our house, gutters and patio. Every time it has been a fantastic service, always going above and beyond, whether it’s attacking a stubborn rust stain or taking time to explain the process. We have recommended them to friends and neighbours and using them every year is testament to how happy we are with the work they do. Thanks! Andrew Covell2025-04-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The service was great, Gavin arrived on the dot of eight o’clock and he then talked me through the process before starting. He worked diligently using a range of different techniques to address the various issues. At the end the render looked like new! Would definitely recommend and will have them back again when it needs doing again! Peter Grant2025-03-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a director of and on behalf of Wardour Court Management Company and residents I wish to record our thanks to Gavin and his team. The property is a sensitive building constructed of Chilmark stone, it had not been cleaned for some time and was looking the worse for wear. They were all extremely efficient and professional as well as very pleasant and easy to talk to despite the difficulties they encountered, which included having to work 17 hours on one of the days. All the residents I have spoken to have expressed how pleased they are with the result, as are the directors of Wardour Court Management Co. We would happily use this company again and are equally happy to recommend them to others. Ann Grant Jewellery2025-03-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gavin and his team recently cleaned the Chilmark stone courtyard mews where I live. The stone was in dire need of cleaning and proved to be a very difficult job including one 17 hour day. Despite the difficulties he and his team remained pleasant, friendly and very professional leaving us with what I can only describe as a transformation ... our ugly duckling has become a swan. I can't thank them enough for their dedication and would happily recommend him and his company. City Stays sw Ltd2025-02-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. One of our properties, which is a rental, was a complete eye sore on the exterior surfaces, which needed rectifying before it was able to go back on the rental market. After ringing around different companies, Softwashing UK stood out and understood our requirements. Softwashing UK Soft wash cleaned 15 years' worth of bad organic staining from our K-Rend render, brickwork, and all rain water goods to the property. We honestly could not believe the results that were achieved. The render now looks like the day we had it rendered. On the day of the work ne carried out, the guys turned up on time and carried out the job respectfully and professionally. It's great to see good tradesmen still exist. We highly recommend the soft wash service they offer, and we will be sure to recommend Softwashing UK our friends and family's.

Had comments saying it looks like a new render job, it’s that clean! Thanks Matthew May2024-07-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A fantastic company with an incredible passion and work ethic. They have a wealth of knowledge and experience that enables them to use the right product and application for different sites. We recently used them on a number of blocks in the Bournemouth area. As a block manager, their proactive view on CDM and H&S is first class.
