Professional greenhouse cleaning service
The beauty of our aluminium greenhouses is that they don’t rot or warp with age,
but they do need regular cleaning to keep them at their best.
We now offer an annual cleaning and maintenance service. We use the best cleaning
products and techniques, and are able to access all areas of the roof which can
be difficult and even dangerous to reach.

Alitex Clean and Care Programme
It is absolutely impossible to have a beautiful and successful greenhouse unless
strict cleanliness in working is adopted at all times. The atmospheric conditions
in a greenhouse make it an ideal breeding place for pests and diseases, and once
these become established they can spread with amazing rapidity.
The Clean and Care Programme includes:
- The aluminium and glass is cleaned using a mild lifting agent (bio-degradable) both
internally and externally. The structure is then washed off with hot distilled water
(to prevent any limescale deposits). It is important to note that the internal areas
of the greenhouse should be cleared of all plants prior to our team commencing work.
All glass overlaps will be power washed to remove the majority of algae that may
be present. Downpipes will be disconnected prior to commencing work.
Please note that the removal of limescale caused by internal and external watering systems is not
included in this specification. There may also be a minimum level of overlap stain remaining, it is not possible
to remove all traces of algae.
- All gutters and valleys cleaned out and downpipes checked for blockages.
- Underside of benches and floors disinfected.
- Internal reservoir emptied out and cleaned.
- Heating duct grids lifted and heating duct cleaned out
- All moving parts checked and lubricated. This applies to the vent torque tube supports,
auto vent mechanism, auto vent opener pivots and adjusters and door hinges and locks.
Also rack and pinion vent opening mechanism.
- Replace any broken or cracked sheets of glass. Provision is made to replace 10 sheets
of glass without additional cost (except where safety glass is required).
- All shades cleaned in situ and re-tensioned where necessary. Shade cords replaced
as necessary. If required, shades will be taken down and cleaned.
- Note: Shades will not be restored to their original condition, as algae staining
cannot be completely removed.
- IMPORTANT: Please ensure your greenhouse is cleared out before our arrival on site.
Attendances: Power – use of a 13-amp socket. Cold water supply.
Prices are difficult to give as standard, as each greenhouse can vary so much. Please
