Broadstairs is one of Thanet’s most characterful seaside towns, wrapped around the sandy sweep of Viking Bay and dotted with the Victorian and Edwardian villas that Dickens knew when he stayed at Bleak House. Astute Clean understands what salt-laden coastal air does to property here: render greens and streaks quickly, north-facing roofs bloom with black algae, and painted seafront walls take a beating from wind-driven spray off the North Sea. Our soft washing is ideal for Broadstairs, lifting salt residue and organic staining from render and rendered flint without forcing water behind delicate coastal finishes.
Away from the front, the streets running up from the harbour and out towards St Peter’s are a mix of bay-fronted terraces, seaside bungalows and newer homes, many with block-paved drives and paths that gather sand, moss and lichen. Our approved cleaning specialists clean and re-sand driveways and patios, clear and flush gutters that fill with debris in exposed positions, and brighten the flint and brick garden walls that are such a feature of Broadstairs. The chalk cliffs towards Botany Bay and the pretty Old Town lanes give the town its charm, and keeping a property’s exterior clean protects that kerb appeal against a genuinely harsh coastal climate. From a single roof clean to a full exterior refresh before selling, Broadstairs homeowners get a careful, insured service.
