Before we quote in Tyne and Wear
The North East has many solid brick terraces, including former colliery housing, plus post-war council estates with some system-built homes.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Tyne and Wear: sheltered town streets fare better than walls on high ground or facing the prevailing weather, and the render, beads and cill details are chosen with that in mind.
For Tyne and Wear homes with faded render, we price a clean and a clean-and-refresh option.

Permissions in England
Repairs, cleaning and like-for-like patching don't usually need planning permission or building control. If repairs grow into re-rendering more than half of a wall, Building Regulations energy rules can apply.
Listed buildings are the exception: even small external repairs can need listed building consent, so tell us if your property is listed.
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 Tyne and Wear: questions
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.
Do you need scaffolding?
Usually not for a two-storey house; poles and low-pressure equipment reach most walls.
Do you cover all of Tyne and Wear?
Yes. We survey and quote render cleaning across Tyne and Wear, including Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland, South Shields, Gateshead, Washington.
Do I need planning permission in England?
For houses, external wall insulation and render are often permitted development where the finish looks similar to the existing walls. We check your address before quoting.
