What Galway Weather Does to Your Property
Galway gets the worst of the Atlantic weather. The salt air along the coast strips paint and feeds algae on rendered walls. Inland, the constant damp keeps moss growing on roofs and driveways all year round. If you've noticed green streaks on your walls or black patches on your driveway, that's standard Galway weather doing its thing.
We deal with all of it. Power washing for driveways and patios. Soft washing for rendered walls and K-rend that can't take high pressure. Gutter cleaning before they overflow and cause damp problems. Roof moss treatment before the frost gets in and starts cracking tiles. Whatever your property needs, we have the right equipment and the experience to do it properly.

Driveway Cleaning in County Galway
County Galway driveways face a dual challenge: the western Atlantic rainfall keeps surfaces wet for much of the year, and the clay-heavy soils across so many Galway estates mean that drainage around driveways is slower than ideal. The result is persistent green growth on block paving, algae on tarmac and black spot on concrete that builds up every season. We remove all of it cleanly, apply a biocide treatment to prevent rapid regrowth, and re-sand block paving joints after cleaning.
View PageDriveway Cleaning in Tuam, Co. Galway
Tuam is our home town and we clean driveways here throughout the year. The town has a wide range of driveway types: block paving in the estate developments like Millbrook, Cloonmore and Highfield; older concrete and tarmac in the town centre streets and the 1980s developments; and some natural stone on older period properties. All of these surfaces are affected by Tuam's flat terrain and clay soil, which slows drainage and keeps ambient moisture higher than average. The result is green growth that builds up year on year without periodic cleaning and treatment. Being local means no travel charge, faster scheduling and a team that knows Tuam.
View PageGutter Cleaning in Galway
With over 1,200mm of rainfall across central Galway and up to 2,000mm in coastal and western areas, gutters here work harder than almost anywhere else in Ireland. When they block - from autumn leaf-fall, moss build-up or nesting debris - the consequences arrive quickly. Overflowing water runs down your walls, saturates your render and creates the conditions for damp internally. Our gutter cleaning service keeps the water where it belongs: away from your property.
View PageGutter Cleaning in Tuam, Co. Galway
Tuam is our home town. When we get a call about blocked gutters here, we can usually be there within a day or two. We clean gutters across the town every week - from the estates on the Galway Road and Millbrook to the older terraced houses in the town centre - and we know exactly what conditions here do to guttering between October and February. Professional clearance, downpipes flushed, fascias cleaned, and a flow test before we leave.
View PageMoss Treatment in County Galway
Atlantic rainfall, mild winters and poor drainage make Galway one of the worst counties in Ireland for moss growth. We treat it at the root - on roofs, driveways, patios and walls - so it doesn't come back.

Tuam is our home town. We're here every week treating roofs, driveways and patios across the town and surrounding parishes. No travel charge, fast scheduling, and we stand behind every job.
View PagePatio Cleaning in Galway
Galway's wet climate is unforgiving on outdoor surfaces. Most patios in County Galway turn green from autumn onward and, by mid-winter, many have patches of black spot and embedded moss that a standard hosepipe cannot shift. Our professional patio cleaning removes all biological growth and staining, restores the original appearance of your slabs, and leaves your garden space looking its best for the months ahead.
View PagePatio Cleaning in Tuam, Co. Galway
We're based in Tuam and we clean patios here every week. Whether it's the back yards of the older terraced houses in town, the garden patios of the newer estates, or commercial paved areas in the town centre - we know what works on each surface type in this area. Fast local response, no travel charge, and a result that makes your outdoor space genuinely usable again.

View PageRoof Cleaning in Galway
Galway's persistent Atlantic rainfall and mild winters create near-perfect conditions for moss and algae growth on roof tiles. Without natural hard frosts to kill it, moss grows continuously through autumn and winter and embeds itself into the tile surface, holding moisture and accelerating deterioration. Our low-pressure roof cleaning service removes all biological growth safely - extending the life of your roof and restoring the appearance of your home.
View PageRoof Cleaning in Tuam, Co. Galway
Tuam is our home base - we clean roofs here regularly and know exactly what local conditions do to tiles year on year. The flat terrain and clay soil around the town mean that ambient moisture remains high around low-lying properties, keeping roof moss growth active for most of the year. Our low-pressure soft washing service removes all biological growth safely, applies a biocide treatment and leaves your Tuam roof in the best condition it's been in for years - with no travel charge.
View PageSoft Washing in Galway
County Galway's Atlantic climate is one of the wettest in Ireland, and those 1,200 - 2,000mm of annual rainfall leave a clear mark on exterior walls. Green algae blooms on north and west-facing render, black mould tracks down from fascias, and pebbledash absorbs biological growth that high-pressure washing alone cannot fully treat. Our low-pressure soft washing service attacks the root cause and leaves your walls clean for years, not weeks.
View PageSoft Washing in Tuam, Co. Galway
Tuam is our home town, and we soft wash properties here every week. From the period terraced houses near the cathedral and Bishop Street, to the newer semi-detacheds on Millbrook, Cloonmore and Highfield estates, we know the render types and the particular moisture challenges that come with the town's clay soil and ground levels. Our low-pressure biocide treatment is the safe, lasting answer to algae and mould on every rendered surface in Tuam.
