1st locate hire the best for the biggest exterior clean in T&C's history

Chris Crawford • April 20, 2025

T&C Cleaning Services LTD are back out to break our own history records with a exterior clean in Scarborough.

The team spent the the last week heavily grinding it out at a local contract at Eastfeild industrial estate.


It was quite an eye-opener to the extent of how bad this exterior was and the first job was to simply de-litter the full area followed by a moss scrape gathering 40 bags worth in total with the correct recycling measures in place.

Afterwards for a job of this size and to the extent of weeds we had no choice but to pre treat the area with a biocide and a de-gresser due to the years of traffic flow which had taken its toll on the block work surface.


Afterwards the clean started following by more waste removal, for our task in hand we used 2 pressure washers, flat surface cleaners, turbo lances and boiler systems. After a few intense days we slowly started making our transformation to this job.


Biocide and the advantages of using it

Afterwards we used biocide as a post treat to help maintain this a little longer, but why use a biocide?

๐Ÿงผ 1. Longer-Lasting Clean

  • Biocides kill mold, mildew, algae, and bacteria at the source—not just wash them away.
  • This means the surface stays clean much longer, reducing how often you need to clean.

๐Ÿ’ช 2. Deep Cleaning Power

  • Pressure washing removes dirt and surface grime, but without biocides, microbial growth can remain in cracks and pores.
  • Biocides penetrate deeper, ensuring a more thorough clean.

๐Ÿงฑ 3. Prevents Regrowth

  • Regular pressure washing alone may only remove visible stains.
  • Biocides disrupt the organisms’ lifecycle, preventing fast regrowth of mold, moss, and algae—especially on porous materials like concrete, wood, or brick.

๐Ÿ  4. Protects Surfaces

  • Algae, lichen, and mold can damage roofing materials, siding, and wooden decks over time.
  • Biocides help preserve the integrity of surfaces by removing damaging biological growth early on.

๐Ÿ’ฐ 5. Cost-Effective Maintenance

  • Because biocides keep surfaces clean longer, you save money on frequent washing, repairs, or repainting.
  • Especially beneficial for homeowners, property managers, or businesses.

๐ŸŒฟ 6. Better Aesthetic Results

  • Eliminates streaks, black spots, and green growth more completely.
  • Leaves surfaces brighter and more uniform in appearance.

โš ๏ธ 7. Reduces Slip Hazards

  • Moss and algae buildup on walkways, patios, and driveways can be dangerously slippery.
  • Biocides help ensure a safer, non-slip surface for longer periods.
