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

Back in 2025 (March, for accuracy), we had to handle a full exterior clean of the warehouse at Lung Wah Chong (Lung Wah House), Oxford OX2 0FA. The project included cleaning the roofline, side cladding, and a full driveway wash. Our goal was to restore a professional appearance throughout the property. We used scaffold tower access for all elevated work.

The tough nut to crack

The property was a commercial warehouse in an urban area of Oxford, so the practical constraints didn’t take us by surprise. Due to the building’s height, we knew that ground-level equipment wouldn’t have worked - scaffold tower access was the solution. When you work in an urban location, the room for a larger plant is limited. Our team had to use the available space around the building to set up the scaffold.

We also had to deal with metal cladding on the walls and roofline, as well as a ground-level driveway made of concrete and tarmac. Cleaning without damaging is no easy task - not if you don’t know the right pressure and technique.

On top of everything else, we had to consider how to handle runoff and noise. Needless to say, we couldn’t block access routes to nearby properties. We paid attention to all these factors when planning and completing our cleaning.

How did we do it

We set up towers around the building - the best solution for safe, stable access to the roofline and upper cladding areas. Plus, we had complete reach across elevations, with no need to rely on ladders or MEWP equipment.

Working from the roofline downward, we avoided re-contaminating areas already cleaned. It’s a standard strategy that ensures runoff takes loosened grime away from already cleaned surfaces. To remove accumulated grime, algae, and general soiling from the side cladding panels, we used pressure washing. Obviously, we adjusted the pressure to the cladding type. This matters when you want clean surfaces without damaging paint or panel joints.

We also removed moss, algae, and debris from the roofline, fascia, and soffit sections - areas where grime tends to accumulate over time. As for the driveway area, we used pressure washing. Both the concrete and tarmac surfaces were left free of oil staining, moss, tyre marks, and general surface grime.

What did we get

Our cleaning gave a uniform finish to the side cladding panels across all elevations. Moss, algae, and debris were all gone from the roofline and fascia areas, and we restored the driveway too - no more tyre marks, moss, debris, or algae. The whole property frontage had a clean, professional look. And we did all that without damaging the cladding, roofline, or driveway surfaces.
