The Importance of a Clean Commercial Facade and Forecourt

Your commercial building’s exterior—its walls, windows, entrance areas, and forecourts—is the first impression your business makes on clients, tenants, and visitors. Dirt, mould, algae, and bird droppings not only create an unsightly appearance but can actively erode building materials and pose liability risks. Algae on walkways and drive-throughs create a severe slip hazard, and constant grime devalues your corporate asset. We provide thorough cleaning solutions that mitigate these risks, ensuring your property is both visually appealing and safe.

Specialist Cleaning Techniques for All Surfaces

Commercial properties often feature a variety of materials, from render and stone to metal cladding and painted surfaces. We utilize techniques tailored to each material, ensuring maximum cleanliness without damage:

  • Render and Stone: For render, brick, and delicate stone facades, we employ Soft Washing techniques to gently kill and remove biological growth without the abrasive power of traditional pressure washing, preventing damage and water ingress.

  • Forecourts and Walkways: Car parks, service yards, and heavy-traffic walkways (including drive-thrus and bin areas) require powerful cleaning to remove deep-seated oil, grime, and tyre marks. We use high-powered surface cleaners combined with degreasing agents to ensure these areas are restored and made safe.

  • High-Level Access: Using professional-grade access equipment, including cherry pickers and scaffolding, we can safely reach all high-level areas of your building’s exterior, guaranteeing a comprehensive clean from the roofline down to the pavement.

Eliminating Bio-Hazards and Liability Risks

A key benefit of professional commercial cleaning is the reduction of health and safety hazards. We focus heavily on areas that attract dangerous growth and contaminants:

  • Algae and Slip Reduction: We treat high-traffic outdoor areas to eliminate green and black algae, significantly reducing the risk of slips, falls, and resulting insurance claims.

  • Graffiti and Stain Removal: Prompt removal of graffiti, traffic film, and unsightly discolouration maintains a respectful and professional presence, deterring further vandalism.

  • Compliance and Due Diligence: By maintaining a clean exterior, property managers fulfill their duty of care, demonstrating due diligence in protecting the health and safety of staff and the public.

Scheduled Maintenance for Lasting Appearance

Reactive cleaning is often more costly and disruptive than preventative maintenance. We partner with businesses and property managers across Devon to implement scheduled cleaning plans. This ensures your commercial exterior is consistently kept to the highest standard, protecting your investment and ensuring you always present a professional image without interruption to your operations.

Certified Soft Washing & Exterior Cleaning Solutions for Lasting Protection

Our certified cleaning specialists provide professional moss removal, protective coatings, and full exterior cleaning—ensuring every project restores your property’s appearance and keeps your roof protected from damage.

Our retail forecourt in Exeter was plagued by slippery black algae, posing a real risk to customers. Fortress Cleaning provided a deep clean using professional surface washers that eliminated all the grime and algae. The entrance now looks immaculate and, critically, is completely safe. Their attention to public safety is excellent.

The rendered facade of our multi-story office block in Torbay had severe algae streaking, which significantly impacted our corporate image. Fortress Cleaning’s Soft Washing service was effective and non-invasive. The walls look bright and clean again, and the work was completed quickly without disrupting our tenants.
