About Exterior Cleaning Solutions

Founded in 2021 by Peter Gama in Northampton. From residential roof cleans to 40,000 sq ft warehouse cladding projects, we offer professional exterior cleaning for homeowners and businesses throughout seven counties. Named commercial clients include AJB Group, Farmfoods, and Northampton City Council. 100 five-star Google reviews and counting.

Who We Are

For Exterior Cleaning Solutions, it all started when Peter Gama noticed that moss covered many roofs in Northampton and that algae stained the render. Additionally, only a few local companies delivered effective soft washing and biocide treatment instead of pressure washing surfaces and blasting them.

Peter built the company, focusing on doing the job right. Moss is scraped manually before soft washing. DDAC biocide that keeps working for 4-5 years after treatment. Hot water and steam cleaning for difficult stains. Pure water systems for solar panels. Every surface is cleaned with the safest and most effective method.

Five years on, and six people make the team - Peter, Neil, Chris, Richard, Christina, and Polly - and ECS has completed more than 500 residential and commercial cleaning projects throughout Northamptonshire, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Oxfordshire, Cambridgeshire, and North West London.

What We Stand For

Honesty First

We'll tell you straight what's fixable and what's not. For instance, the slate tiles on a property weren't affected by algae but showed iron-ore discolouration. Peter looked into it, discussed it with other professionals, and informed the client that cleaning wouldn't solve the problem. Just for honesty, she gave us a five-star review.

No Deposits, No Risk

We never request upfront payments. You will pay after we complete the job to your satisfaction. We do this on every job, whether it's a £80 gutter clean or a £5,000 warehouse project. We've followed this principle from the very first day, and not once have we had any disputes.

Perfectionism

Several customers have named Peter a perfectionist in their reviews. He will finish work that isn't in the original quote simply because it's necessary. He won't miss edges and corners that others miss. See the before-and-after photos on every project page - they all speak volumes.

How We Work

Free Survey

Peter himself will come to your property, examine every surface, photograph, and tell you about the most adequate cleaning method. This is free, without any obligations for you. You will receive an email with a written quote on the same day.

Method Selection

The adequate treatment will be used on every surface. Soft washing for render and roof tiles. Driveways are cleaned with hot water pressure washing. Delicate stone is revived through steam cleaning. Pure water for solar panels. We never employ methods that may cause damage.

Professional Clean

The team comes with all equipment - industrial pressure washers, cherry pickers, telescopic poles, scaffold towers. We take photos of everything before, during, and after our cleaning. For most residential jobs, we can complete the cleaning in one day.

Aftercare

Biocide treatments continue working for 4-5 years after application - rain activates the treatment and full effect is achieved in 6-12 months. Every job includes a follow-up check, and we're always open to answering your enquiries.

Equipment and Qualifications

We complete every project safely, efficiently, and to the highest standard, using professional-grade equipment. Our cleaning arsenal is comprised of:

  • Cherry pickers (MEWP) - we can access up to 20 metres for roofs, cladding, and facades without scaffolding
  • Telescopic poles - using them from the ground, we reach up to 12 metres. We use them for cladding, fascias, and solar panels.
  • Industrial pressure washers - can be used with hot water and steam, up to 250 bar. We use them for commercial hardstanding.
  • Pure water systems - using deionised water, we employ them for streak-free solar panel and window cleaning
  • Gutter vacuum systems - SkyVac, and we take photos before and after to document clearance
  • Scaffold towers - we use them for multi-day commercial projects and extended roof work

Certifications: IPAF (International Powered Access Federation) for cherry picker operation. CSCS (Construction Skills Certification Scheme) for site access. £5 million public liability insurance on every job.

Amarjit Binji, AJB Group - Google Review

"I really appreciated his honesty when he told me that my slate tiles contained iron ore and that it was a rust type of damage and not organic, so not something that can be rectified. He spent the time to research it and ask other experts in the field."

Community and Charity Work

Local charities and community organisations benefit from our donated cleaning services. Two Google reviewers have specifically talked about our charity work - we believe that local businesses should give back to their community, so we do not advertise it.

Reach out to us if you run a charity, community centre, or place of worship in Northamptonshire and are looking for exterior cleaning. Based on the project, we will help at reduced cost or even free of charge.
