Local context
Galway fascia takes a beating from the Atlantic.
Salt air, damp westerlies and long overcast winters accelerate the oxidation of UPVC — the chalky, streaky grey that turns white plastic dull inside a few seasons. Coastal properties see it faster and heavier than inland houses, and the streaking below gutter joints is a giveaway on almost every Galway elevation.
We clean fascia, soffit, bargeboards and gutter exteriors across the county — Galway city, Salthill, Barna, Oranmore, Athenry, Loughrea, Tuam and Ballinasloe — treating the plastic so the film releases without scrubbing the surface dull, and rinsing controlled so nothing streaks a freshly cleaned wall.
01 — What's included
What the job actually covers
Quoted as a fixed price before booking. No hidden extras, no day-rate creep.
- Fascia, soffit and bargeboards cleaned and de-greened
- UPVC treated for oxidation and weathering marks
- Bargeboards, verge trims and cladding included where present
- Gutter exteriors cleaned on the same pass
- Written fixed price, valid for 30 days
Why it's done this way
Grey, streaked fascia makes a well-kept house look tired, and they're the cheapest thing on the building to put right. Because we're already set up on the elevation for a softwash or a gutter clean, adding the trim costs a fraction of booking it separately — which is why most of this work goes out as part of a combined visit.
02 — Process
Four stages, every visit

Fascia, soffit, bargeboards and gutter exteriors cleaned along the full run.

05 — FAQ
Questions we get on this job
Can badly oxidised UPVC be brought back?
Most of it, yes. Chalked, heavily oxidised plastic will improve substantially but may not return to factory white — we tell you which you're looking at before quoting.
Do you clean the gutters at the same time?
Gutter exteriors are cleaned as part of this job. Clearing the inside of the gutters is a separate service — booked together it takes 5% off the total.
Is this worth booking on its own?
It can be, but it's far better value combined with a roof or render softwash — and two or more services take 5% off the total.
Will the render be marked by runs?
No. The run is rinsed in a controlled way so nothing streaks down a freshly cleaned elevation.
