Biocide Cleaning for Homes – Safe, Sustainable Results
Biocide cleaning for homes is one of the safest and most effective ways to remove algae, moss, and mould from outdoor surfaces. At NEREC, we use a low-pressure, eco-friendly biocide treatment that’s ideal for homes with pets, children, and gardens. It cleans gently, prevents regrowth, and leaves your property looking fresh for longer.
What Is Biocide?
Biocide is a specialist cleaning agent designed to kill organic growth such as algae, mould, and moss. It’s often used in professional exterior cleaning because it works deeply and delivers long-lasting results.
At NEREC, we use BAC 50, a fully biodegradable biocide that’s widely trusted across the UK.
It’s ideal for use on:
White and coloured render
Roof tiles and ridges
Patios and paving
Driveways
Walls and fencing
Is It Safe for Pets, People and Plants?
Yes — when handled professionally, biocide is very safe. We always take care to apply it correctly and inform you of any precautions.
Here’s what we do to protect your home and garden:
Pet-safe application: You’ll be advised to keep pets off treated areas until they’re dry — usually just a few hours.
Plant protection: We avoid direct contact with flowerbeds or sensitive plants and can rinse these areas if needed.
No damage to surfaces: Our low-pressure soft wash technique ensures your render, roof, and stonework stay protected.
Why We Use Biocide for Exterior Cleaning
Unlike pressure washing alone, biocide does more than remove visible stains — it kills the root cause of the problem. Algae and moss can quickly return if not treated properly.
Biocide works by:
Killing existing organic growth
Preventing regrowth for months after treatment
Delivering long-lasting results with less water and energy
This makes it perfect for delicate surfaces like render, natural stone, and clay tiles.
A Safe, Sustainable Clean That Lasts
With our biocide soft washing system, your home looks better for longer — and you can feel confident about what’s being used around your family and pets.
