Home›Gutter, Fascia & Soffit Cleaning›Thorpe
Turn a grubby, green-tinged roofline back to crisp white, black or grey. The outer faces of gutter, fascia and soffit are lathered with a mild cleaner, worked over with soft bristles and rinsed off – ideal before a sale or after a damp winter.
Even a perfectly clear gutter can let a house down if the outside of it is streaked black and the boards behind it have gone green. That grime builds up slowly, so most people do not notice until they see a neighbour’s freshly cleaned roofline. Our fascia and soffit cleaning in Thorpe deals with the three surfaces you actually look at – gutter front, fascia board and the soffit tucked beneath – removing algae, traffic film and the dark vertical marks known as tiger stripes.
Our cleaner is formulated for plastic and goes on with soft-headed brushes mounted on tall poles, so we can work from the ground on most houses. The aim is to lift the dirt without scratching the plastic or stripping its finish, and then rinse it all away with clean water. Plenty of people book it alongside a gutter clear, ticking off the inside and the outside together. It makes a noticeable difference to white uPVC especially, and dark grey or black rooflines look sharper too.
Two things turn rooflines green and grey around Thorpe: moisture and traffic. The village is surrounded by lakes, old gravel workings and the Thames floodplain, so moisture hangs in the air for weeks at a stretch once the clocks go back. Algae loves a damp, shaded surface, and the underside of a soffit or the north face of a fascia board is exactly that. Houses backing onto trees or water tend to show green first.
Thorpe is also hemmed in by some busy roads, with the M25 and M3 close by and plenty of traffic heading for Thorpe Park and towards Staines and Chertsey. A fine film of road grime settles on every surface over time, and on white uPVC it shows as a grey, dingy cast. When gutters overflow, water running down the outside face carries dirt with it, leaving the vertical black streaks that are so common on front elevations.
The housing mix means we see everything from small cottage rooflines in the conservation area to wide, deep fascias on modern detached homes and long soffits on bungalows. Dormer windows, porches and bay roofs all have their own trims that collect dirt, and we include these in the clean. We cover all of TW20 around Thorpe, including Thorpe Green and the roads towards Thorpe Lea and Egham.
A careful hand wash rather than a blast of high pressure, so the plastic is protected.
From your photos we gauge how heavy the algae and staining are, whether the uPVC is white, grey or woodgrain, and which surfaces need including, such as bays or dormers.
A uPVC-friendly cleaner goes onto the gutter faces, fascias and soffits and is left briefly to loosen the grime, especially in the stubborn black tiger stripes.
Gentle brushes on telescopic handles scrub the grime loose while leaving the surface unmarked. Corners, brackets and the undersides of soffits get extra attention where algae hides.
Fresh water then flushes away every trace of cleaner before it can dry and leave marks. We rinse windows and sills below as we go, then check the finish from the ground.

There is more to a roofline than the strip above the front door. On a typical Thorpe home it includes:
If you only want certain elevations cleaned, such as the front of the house before a sale, just let us know.
Your quote is based on the amount of roofline and how dirty it has become. Factors we weigh up:
Snap each elevation from the garden and we can price it for free, often within hours.
No. We use a solution suited to uPVC, apply it carefully and rinse thoroughly with clean water. Plants beneath the roofline are wetted down and rinsed as part of the job, and we avoid saturating any delicate borders.
That is usually the shaded, north-facing side, or the side facing trees or water. Around Thorpe, homes near the lakes or backing onto woodland tend to stay damp on that side, which is perfect for algae. The sunnier side dries quickly and stays cleaner.
In most cases they come off well with the right solution and some brushwork. Stripes that have been baking into old plastic for a decade may leave a ghost of a mark, yet the before-and-after difference is still striking. We will tell you what to expect from your photos.
Quicker, perhaps, but riskier. A powerful jet can drive water up behind fascias, blow out rubber seals and etch the plastic surface. Hand brushing with a mild cleaner, followed by a gentle rinse, gets better results with none of that risk.
Yes. Clearing the inside stops overflow, which is what causes most of the streaking on the outside. Doing both together means the roofline looks clean and stays that way for longer, and it saves arranging two visits.
Absolutely. Bungalows and chalet-style homes are common around the village, and their low rooflines are quick to reach. Dormers and deep soffits on chalet homes are included, and we can usually clean them entirely from the ground.
