Homes and walls in Swanley
We also cover Bexley and Dartford, close to Swanley. Swanley is about 17 miles from Maidstone. Homes across the South East range from inter-war semis and post-war estates, which are mostly cavity-walled, to older solid-walled cottages and Victorian town terraces.
Much of Kent sits in the lower wind-driven rain exposure bands, which keeps the choice of finishes wide — though hilltop, coastal and exposed gable walls can still need a tougher specification, so we check the actual site.
We clean render in Swanley with low pressure only, so thin-coat and EWI finishes aren't damaged.

Planning and building control in England
Small repairs and cleaning in Swanley normally need no approvals. Listed buildings are the exception — even minor external work can need consent.
Why not pressure wash render?
Thin-coat renders are only 1–2mm thick. High-pressure jetting can erode the texture, strip colour, force water behind beads and cracks, and damage the insulation system underneath. A soft wash uses chemistry rather than pressure to do the work.

Render cleaning in Swanley: questions
Is render cleaning safe for EWI?
Yes, using low pressure and products suitable for thin-coat render.
Will the green come back?
The biocide slows regrowth considerably, but shaded, damp walls can need retreating every few years.
Can faded render be refreshed?
Yes — a compatible silicone paint restores colour without making the wall less breathable.
