What we clean

Every part of the building

Choose one service or combine several. Every site is surveyed first, so the method and access suit the building.

Not sure what your building needs? We’ll survey it and suggest a plan.

Commercial gutter cleaning

Gutters and gullies kept flowing

Blocked gutters are behind most commercial leaks. Leaves, silt and weeds build up in box gutters, valleys and outlets until water backs up into the building. Regular clearance keeps it flowing where it should.

  • Gutter vacuum clearanceA commercial gutter vacuum lifts leaves, silt and moss out of the gutter from the ground or from our own cherry picker, with roof access where the job needs it.
  • Box gutters, valleys and outletsValley and box gutters, gullies and outlets cleared so rainwater can reach the downpipes again.
  • Photographs as proofBefore and after photographs on request, so you can see the work has been done and keep your maintenance records up to date.

Car parks, forecourts and driveways

Hard surfaces that make an entrance

Car parks, forecourts, yards and walkways are the first thing customers and staff see. We lift dirt, algae, chewing gum and tyre marks with commercial pressure washing, and can seal paving afterwards so it stays cleaner for longer.

  • Car parks and forecourtsLarge areas of tarmac, concrete and block paving cleaned with commercial equipment, planned around opening hours.
  • Entrances and walkwaysShopfront approaches, paths and smoking areas cleaned of gum, staining and slippery algae.
  • Sealed to lastPaving can be sealed after cleaning to lock the joints, slow weeds and resist oil and staining.

Solar arrays working at their best

Dirt, bird droppings and lichen on commercial solar panels cut the power they produce. We clean rooftop, flat-roof and ground-mounted arrays, including solar farms, with purified water and soft brushes.

  • Arrays of any sizeFrom a few panels on an office roof to large flat-roof arrays on warehouses and retail units.
  • Purified water onlyPure water and soft brushes clean the glass without scratching it or leaving residue.

What sets us apart

Built for bigger buildings

Commercial exterior work needs more than a pressure washer. TLC brings its own team, vehicles and access equipment, and the office behind them, so large and high-level jobs are planned and delivered properly, from supermarkets to industrial estates.

  • Our own cherry pickerOur own cherry picker, access towers and water-fed poles, with powered access operated by IPAF-trained team members.
  • Safe and documentedSite surveys, risk assessments and method statements (RAMS), and insurance documents on request.
  • One contractor, one contactWindows and exterior combined in one plan, with the office as your single point of contact.

How it works

Surveyed, scoped and planned

Exterior work is scoped for each building, so the price, method and access are right before anyone starts.

  1. Site survey

    We look at the building, its height, access, surfaces and any site procedures.

    Building and access checkedTwo TLC operatives in hard hats and hi-vis on a commercial site
  2. Scope and method

    We agree what will be cleaned or repaired, how, and what equipment the site needs.

  3. Documentation

    Risk assessments and method statements prepared for your approval, with insurance documents if needed.

  4. Planned visits

    One-off work, or a planned schedule that combines services to keep disruption to a minimum.

Planned maintenance

One contractor for the outside of the building

Many sites combine exterior work with their window cleaning, so visits are coordinated and there are fewer contractors to manage.

Planned exterior maintenance

Kept on top of, all year

Gutters cleared each autumn, hard surfaces washed before a busy period, roofs and cladding cleaned when they need it, all in one plan.

Tell us what you’d like covered and we’ll suggest a schedule.

One-off projects

When it needs doing now

A roof or cladding clean, a car park refresh, gutters before winter, or repairs after a survey.

Tell us the date you are working to.

Several premises? One plan can cover more than one of your sites, with one point of contact at the office.

Quick response - did an excellent job for an excellent price. No hassle - turned up when I was at work, dropped the invoice through the letterbox. What more could you want? I'd had real trouble trying to find someone to clean my windows and frames - despite local tradespersons dropping business cards through my door over the years, not one of them bothered to even reply - TLC responded with a quote next working day. Full credit to them.

TLC window cleaning was one of only a few companies that got back to me about an end of tenancy cleaning (and I contacted about 15 separate companies). Their communication was fantastic and they tried to go the extra mile to help me within the needed timeline. Thank you for your customer service!

Just get the thing done that you've been putting off! It was super easy to book, knock out multiple services, and a great job done by Perry. Wish I would have done it sooner. Would recommend to others.
