Ilkley houses, and what they need
Ilkley is stone-built Victorian spa villas and substantial detached houses, with a well-preserved centre. The roofline is Yorkshire stone slate and Welsh slate, on generously pitched roofs. The town sits directly under the moor, which means more rain, more shade and appreciably more moss than the towns out in the Vale.
Moor-edge properties green up fastest on this patch — the same roof here will carry visibly more growth than its twin fifteen miles east.

The work we are asked for most here
Pressure washing in Ilkley. Most of what looks like permanent staining on a wall, a path or a drive is a living film of algae sitting on top of the surface. The skill is not the machine — it is knowing how much pressure a given surface can take before you start removing the surface itself. Rendering in Ilkley. Render is the wall’s raincoat. While it is sound it keeps water out of the masonry; once it has cracked or blown it holds water against the wall instead, and the damp inside usually arrives before anyone notices the crack outside. Patio cleaning in Ilkley. A patio does not usually go dark because the stone has changed. It goes dark because a film of algae has grown over it, and under that film the original colour is still there.
