Jet washing in Orrell

Yes — every street in the WN5 postcodes, plus the immediate borders with Billinge, Wigan, Standish, Ashton-in-Makerfield, Ince-in-Makerfield. There is no out-of-area surcharge anywhere inside Wigan.

Small patio or path starts from £95 and standard driveway from £150. We bring our own water bowser where a tap is not available, and quote biocide treatment separately so you can decide after seeing the result.

We plan for it. Wigan Council runs the permit and loading rules here, so tell us at booking whether there is a driveway, a permit bay or nothing at all — we allow for the walk-in distance in the quote rather than adding it afterwards.

Yes. Interwar semis with wide drives, sandstone cottages near the old village core and modern detached estates towards Orrell Post. Our Wigan teams work in these buildings weekly, so access quirks — narrow stairwells, single-glazed sashes, shared bin stores — are planned in, not discovered on the day.

Most Orrell bookings are covered within 48 hours, and we hold same-week slots for check-out and completion dates. Weekend work is available at the same hourly rate.

Every operative is ID-checked, reference-checked and DBS-screened, and every job carries £5m public liability cover. Certificates are available on request for landlords and managing agents.

Not when it is done properly. Damage comes from too much pressure held in one place. We use a flat-surface cleaner at controlled pressure, then re-sand the joints — skipping the re-sanding is what makes blocks loosen.

Render is soft-washed, not jet-washed: a low-pressure biocide application that kills the growth and lets rain rinse it. High pressure on render drives water into the wall.

An outside tap and a socket help. If there is neither, we bring a bowser and generator — just tell us when booking.

On an open, sunny drive, two to three years. On a shaded, north-facing patio under trees, expect twelve to eighteen months, or longer with a biocide treatment.
