How much does house exterior cleaning cost in the UK?
Exterior cleaning prices in the UK depend on the surface, area and access. As a 2026 average, driveway jet washing runs £3–£6 per m², roof cleaning £8–£15 per m², and patio jet washing £3–£5 per m².
Roof work and high exterior walls cost more because of access requirements — a tower scaffold or cherry picker can add £200–£500 to the day rate.
What affects the price?
Surface type (porous stone takes longer than concrete), dirt level, moss or algae growth, and how the cleaner can reach the area are the four biggest cost drivers.
Bundling services (e.g. driveway + patio on the same visit) usually saves 10–20% versus booking separately, because the setup time is shared.
Window cleaning
Exterior window cleaning in the UK is typically done using water-fed pole systems with purified water, leaving windows streak-free without the need for ladders. The purified water dries naturally without spotting, so there's no traditional squeegeeing required.
Most window cleaners offer regular monthly or fortnightly rounds, which work out significantly cheaper per visit than one-off bookings. Expect £40–£80 for a standard 3-bed semi on a regular round, with first-clean prices sometimes 1.5–2× higher.
