Green Algae

If you own a property, you’re likely familiar with the green discoloration that can appear on your walls, roofs, and other exterior surfaces. This discoloration is caused by green algae, a type of primitive plant that thrives in damp and sheltered areas.

At Red Gable Cleaning, we offer a specialised softwash service to remove green algae from your property’s exterior surfaces. Our team of highly trained technicians uses the latest equipment and biocide chemicals to safely and effectively treat your building while minimising damage to delicate surfaces.

One of the benefits of our softwash system is that it removes the food source for other biomass, causing it to die and wash away. This can prevent regrowth and keep your building looking clean and well-maintained for longer.

When green algae is treated by Red Gable Cleaning, the cell walls are punctured, causing the staining to look worse for 24-48 hours. However, within four weeks, the staining caused by green algae will have biodegraded and disappeared entirely.

In addition to removing the unsightly appearance of green algae, our softwash system is safe for the environment and won’t damage delicate surfaces. This can help preserve the historic integrity of older buildings while maintaining their aesthetic value.

If you’re looking for a reliable and effective solution to remove green algae from your property, Red Gable Cleaning is the perfect choice. Contact us today to schedule your softwash service and restore your building’s exterior to its original beauty.
