Professional K Rend & Silicone Render Cleaning in Corfe Mullen
If your K Rend has turned green, black or patchy, you're not alone. Modern silicone render is designed to stay attractive for years, but algae, mould and airborne pollution can quickly spoil its appearance, especially in shaded or damp areas around Corfe Mullen.
At Mr Softwash®, we specialise in the safe cleaning of K Rend, Monocouche, Parex and other coloured renders using professional low-pressure soft washing techniques.
Unlike pressure washing, our process removes algae and biological growth without damaging the render, helping your home look cleaner for much longer.
Why Does K Rend Become Dirty?
Although K Rend is designed to be low maintenance, it is still exposed to the British weather every day.
Common causes of staining include:
Green algae
Black mould
Lichen
Air pollution
Tree sap and organic debris
Constant moisture from shade or north-facing walls
These contaminants grow within the surface of the render rather than simply sitting on top. Simply blasting them away with high pressure often causes damage while leaving the spores behind.
The Safe Way to Clean K Rend
Our preferred cleaning method is professional soft washing.
The process uses carefully controlled low pressure together with specialist cleaning solutions designed to eliminate algae, mould and organic growth at the source.
The process includes:
Full inspection of the render
Protection of surrounding plants and surfaces
Application of specialist soft wash solution
Controlled dwell time to break down contamination
Gentle low-pressure rinse
Optional long-term biocide protection
This method restores the appearance of your render without the risks associated with pressure washing.
Why We Never Use High Pressure on K Rend
Many homeowners believe pressure washing is the quickest solution.
Unfortunately, K Rend is relatively thin and high pressure can:
Damage the textured finish
Force water behind the render
Remove protective surface coatings
Leave visible patchiness
Encourage faster algae regrowth
Professional soft washing avoids these problems while producing a much longer-lasting result.

How Long Do Results Last?
Because soft washing removes the organic growth rather than simply washing the surface, results generally last significantly longer than conventional pressure washing.
Many properties remain cleaner for several years, depending on location, shade, nearby trees and weather exposure.
Regular maintenance treatments can keep your render looking its best year after year.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can K Rend be pressure washed?
It can be extremely risky. High pressure may damage the surface, remove protective finishes or force water into the render. Professional soft washing is the safer option.
Is soft washing safe?
Yes. When carried out correctly using the appropriate cleaning solutions and equipment, soft washing is the recommended method for cleaning modern render.
Will the algae come back?
Eventually, yes. However, because the treatment removes the biological growth at its source, regrowth is much slower than with pressure washing alone.
Do you provide free quotations?
Yes. We provide free, no-obligation quotations throughout Corfe Mullen and the surrounding areas.

K Rend Cleaning in Corfe Mullen
covering Dorset, Hampshire & Wiltshire.
To clean K Rend and all silicone renders, use Soft washing a low-pressure fan setting with mild detergent to remove algae, dirt, and weathering.High-pressure washing can damage the surface, spreading contaminants, so chemicals are preferred to kill organic growth, followed by a gentle rinse. Regular application of a fungicidal wash or biocide can prevent future growth.
Choose Your Cleaning Method
Soft Wash:
This method uses a special blend of cleaning detergents to dissolve and lift dirt and organic growth like algae, mould, and spores without high pressure. It is environmentally friendly and prevents damage to the render.
To clean
K Rend, the two most effective and recommended methods are soft washing(using a biocide/mild detergent) and steam cleaning. High-pressure washing is generally not advised as it can permanently damage the render surface, which is typically only 8-10mm thick.
Recommended Cleaning Methods
Soft Washing
Soft washing is considered the best and safest option for removing algae, mould, and general dirt. This method uses low pressure and a chemical solution (biocide) to kill the organic growth at the root, which provides longer-lasting results than simply washing it away.
- Materials needed:
- Protective gear (gloves and eye protection are essential)
- Specialised algae/render cleaner (e.g.,
- Garden sprayer or a soft brush
- Garden hose or low-pressure washer (on a "fan" setting)
- or
"Algoclear Pro"
- ) or a diluted mild detergent/bleach solution (1 part bleach to 3-4 parts water - use with extreme caution and protect plants).
- Steps:
- Preparation: Remove any loose debris or bulky growth (like ivy or moss) with a soft brush. Protect surrounding plants and surfaces by drenching them with water or covering them with sheeting.
- Apply Solution: Apply the cleaning solution using a brush or low-pressure sprayer to the affected areas, ensuring uniform coverage.
- Dwell Time: Allow the solution to work, ideally overnight, or as specified by the product instructions. The staining may darken as the biocide kills the growth.
- Rinse: Rinse the surface thoroughly with clean water from a garden hose or a very low-pressure washer. Work from top to bottom.
- Repeat: For stubborn stains, repeat the application process.
General Maintenance Tips
- Regular Cleaning: K Rend is low maintenance but benefits from occasional light cleaning every few years to maintain its appearance.
- Prevent Regrowth: Applying biocide products like Algoclear prevent further regrowth for at least 2-3 years.
- Hardware: Ensure all external attachments (satellite dish brackets, light fixings, etc.) are made from stainless steel to prevent rust staining on the render.
Warning: Avoid High Pressure
Never use high-pressure washing or needle-point pressure settings, as this can etch or damage the thin render surface, leading to permanent damage. Using specialist soft washing equipment is the best & safest option rarther than using pressure washers with the pressure turned down.
What is Soft Washing?
The Safer Way To Wash Your Home.
Soft Washing was developed in the USA about 20 years ago and was a way of washing property without the risks associated with using high pressure as in pressure washing. Soft washing is a cleaning process that safely removes organic stains, mildew, and algae from render using a low-pressure washing technique and a mixture of biocides or sodium hypochlorite, surfactants, and water. High pressure damages render, roofs and other surfaces, so Low pressure is used to prevent any damage.
Soft washing or low pressure is used on surfaces that are difficult to clean with pressure washing or might be damaged by high pressure. It's gentle on surfaces, making it ideal for delicate materials.
Soft washing is different from power washing, which uses higher water pressure. Power washing can void a warranty, cause granule loss, and compromise the integrity of roof tiles, damage rendering, patios and other surfaces.
What is the distinction between Soft Washing and Pressure Washing?
Although the procedures, equipment, pressure, and chemicals used in soft washing, power washing, and pressure washing appear to be identical, they are not. Power washing and pressure washing require much higher water pressure than soft washing, and power washing is usually done with high pressure. To kill mould, mildew, bacteria, algae, fungus, moss, and other bacteria, the Soft Washing method is paired with a biodegradable sanitizing cleaning solution.
This biowash will continue to prevent further organic growth for about 3-5 years.

I cannot recommend Steve at Mr Softwash Ltd highly enough. A very professional job done on our patio - paving slabs which hadn’t been cleaned for 4-5 years! They now look amazing and no mess left. My request for a quote was responded to quickly and he turned up at the date and time he said he would. Very happy customer 😊
Steve has soft washed my house and it was an excellent job. He's just come back and jet washed the driveway and resanded it and has done yet another excellent job. I highly recommend his work.

5 star service!
We got in touch with Steve after an accident with a large pot of green fence paint that exploded all over our block paved driveway! Steve was brilliant from start to finish, he cleaned our driveway, path at the front of our property and our Indian sandstone patio in the garden and has done a top job! All 3 areas look brand new, the paint has completely gone and its transformed the outside of our little house. Can’t rate Steve’s service highly enough. Professional, friendly and he’s done a brilliant job. Thank you!
I've just had my block paved Driveway cleaned and resanded by Steve at Mr Softwash Ltd...and I am chuffed to bits with it! It was in a right sorry state after a Massive Water leak restoration by Insurance builders, it had mould,Moss, water stains, builders rubble, tile grout, concrete you name it, it was on there!..and Now after he worked his magic, looks like it was laid yesterday. Pristine and all the colours are back and refreshed.
Steve was prompt, his work was clean and efficient, and he told me at every stage from estimate, to end of job why and how he was going to do job. I am extremely Happy with the Work carried out and would recommend this company to anyone!!
