Warehouse Exterior Cleaning - Lung Wah Chong, Oxford (OX2 0FA)

Full warehouse exterior clean at Lung Wah Chong (Lung Wah House), Oxford OX2 0FA, completed March 2025. The project covered the roofline, side claddings, and a full driveway wash - restoring a clean, professional appearance across the entire property. All elevated work was carried out using scaffold tower access.

Project Overview

• Client: Lung Wah Chong
• Location: Oxford, OX2 0FA
• Date: March 2025
• Scope: Roofline, side claddings, full driveway
• Access: Scaffold tower
• Method: Pressure washing

The Challenge

The property is a commercial warehouse situated in an urban area of Oxford, which brought several practical constraints:

• Height access in a confined space: The building height required scaffold tower access rather than ground-level equipment. Working in an urban setting meant limited room for larger plant, and the scaffold setup needed to work within the available space around the building.
• Mixed surfaces: The job covered metal cladding on the walls, roofline areas, and a ground-level driveway made up of concrete and tarmac - each surface requiring appropriate pressure and technique to avoid damage while achieving a thorough clean.
• Urban location: Runoff management, noise considerations, and keeping access routes clear for neighbouring properties were all factors in how the work was planned and carried out.

Our Approach

1. Scaffold tower setup: Scaffold towers were erected around the building to provide safe, stable access to the roofline and upper cladding sections. This gave full reach across all elevations without relying on ladders or MEWP equipment.
2. Systematic top-down cleaning: We worked from the roofline downward to avoid re-contaminating cleaned areas. This standard approach ensures runoff carries loosened grime away from surfaces that have already been cleaned.
3. Cladding wash: Side cladding panels were pressure washed to remove accumulated grime, algae, and general soiling. Pressure was adjusted for the cladding type to clean effectively without damaging paint or panel joints.
4. Roofline cleaning: The roofline areas were cleaned to remove moss, algae, and debris build-up. This included fascia and soffit sections where grime had accumulated over time.
5. Driveway pressure wash: The full driveway area was pressure washed to remove oil staining, tyre marks, moss, and general surface grime from the concrete and tarmac surfaces.

Results

• Side cladding panels cleaned to a uniform finish across all elevations
• Roofline and fascia areas cleared of moss, algae, and debris
• Driveway restored - oil staining, tyre marks, and moss removed
• Clean, professional appearance across the entire property frontage
• No damage to cladding, roofline materials, or driveway surfaces
