New homes, lots of builders' dust
Chelmsford has grown fast, with large new neighbourhoods such as Beaulieu and Channels to the north-east. New homes come with plaster dust, mortar specks and protective film on the frames, and the first clean is the one most likely to scratch new glass if it's done dry. That's our after-builders clean.
Older streets near the centre
In Moulsham and the streets around the station there are plenty of Victorian and Edwardian houses with bay windows, sash replacements and narrow back gardens. Access is the usual question, so tell us whether there's a side gate or a shared alley.
Gardens and conservatories
Further out, in Great Baddow, Springfield, Broomfield and Writtle, conservatories and orangeries under mature trees go green quickly. Our conservatory roof clean is done from the ground with soft brushes.
The rivers and the parks
The Chelmer and the Can meet in the city centre, and homes along the river paths and beside Hylands Park, Central Park and Admirals Park get damp air, shade and leaf drop. That's what turns north-facing frames and fascias green. A frames, sills and fascia deep clean takes it off in one visit.
Solar panels on the newer estates
Many of the newer homes around Chelmsford, from Beaulieu to the estates on the edge of Great Baddow, were built with solar panels fitted. On shallower roofs, dirt and lichen collect along the bottom edge where water runs off and dries. Our solar panel clean uses pure water and a soft brush from the ground.
