After-Builders Exterior Cleaning in Surrey & Sussex: Why It Matters & What’s Included

Renovating a home or completing a new build is an exciting milestone—but it often leaves behind a mess that can spoil the final result. While most people think of after-builders cleaning as an indoor task, the exterior of a property is just as important, if not more so, when it comes to showcasing the finished work.

At Skyhawk Exterior Cleaning, we specialise in professional after-builders exterior cleaning across Surrey and Sussex, helping homeowners, property developers, and builders leave a spotless impression once the work is done.

Why Exterior Cleaning Is Essential After Building Work

Construction dust, cement splatter, mud, footprints, and leftover materials don’t just make a property look messy—they can cause lasting damage if left untreated. Surfaces like driveways, patios, windows, and render can all suffer from discolouration, staining, or material buildup that needs proper cleaning to restore.

Exterior cleaning after building work is crucial for:

Presentation – Whether selling, renting, or moving in, you want your property to look pristine.

Safety – Debris or slippery surfaces can create hazards for residents or site visitors.

Maintenance – Leftover dust, mortar or chemicals can wear down materials over time if not professionally cleaned.

Compliance – For developers, especially on new builds, properties may need to pass snagging inspections or meet handover standards.

Who Needs After-Builders Exterior Cleaning?

We work with a wide range of clients across Crawley, Horsham, Brighton, Redhill, Guildford, Dorking, and beyond, including:

Private homeowners finishing an extension or renovation

Builders and contractors needing a final site clean

Property developers preparing new builds for handover or marketing

Estate agents and landlords preparing properties for sale or let

Whether it’s a single patio or an entire housing development, we have the team, tools, and training to deliver exceptional results.

What Does After-Builders Exterior Cleaning Include?

Our after-builders cleans are tailored to your needs, but here’s a breakdown of the most common services:

1. Pressure Washing for Patios, Driveways & Walls

We use professional-grade pressure washers (up to 2000 psi) to remove:

Cement, plaster, and paint splashes

Mud and tyre marks

Dust and loose debris

Algae and moss from weather-exposed surfaces

2. Chemical Treatments for Stains

After building work, certain surfaces may require more than just pressure washing. We offer:

Lichen and black spot removal

Efflorescence cleaning (for white salt marks on bricks or paving)

Soft washing for delicate render and painted areas

We only use HSE-approved biocides and detergents, including PureSeal Synergie, Bac50, and Hypo where appropriate, always applying the safest method for your surface.

3. Window & Frame Cleaning

Post-build, windows are usually covered in dust, residue, or smudges. We offer:

Water-fed pole cleaning up to 3 storeys high

Hand-polishing for ground floor or internal access jobs

Frame, sill, and glass cleaning included

4. Roof & Gutter Clearing

Building work often leads to debris ending up in the guttering or on the roof. We offer:

Gutter vacuuming and downpipe checks

Roof moss removal (by scraper or low-pressure jetter)

Optional biocide application for long-lasting results

5. Cladding, Fascia & Soffit Cleaning

Dust and residue can dull the look of plastic and metal trims. We safely clean:

uPVC and metal cladding

Fascia boards and soffits

Conservatory roofs and skylights

6. Waste Removal & Site Tidy-Ups

If required, we can also help with light debris clearance, such as:

Bagging up loose rubble, sand, and packaging

Sweeping pathways and entryways

Disposing of leftover materials safely

If you’ve got something specific in mind, just ask—we tailor each service to the property.
