Why Kilkenny properties need this
Kilkenny's limestone and lime-mortar buildings are the reason we are careful here. Limestone marks easily and lime mortar washes out under pressure, so almost everything in the medieval centre is a low-pressure job.
For biocide treatment specifically, Kilkenny limestone and lime mortar wash out under pressure, so nearly everything here is low-pressure work — which is exactly why the method matters more than the machine. A low-pressure treatment applied after cleaning that kills moss, algae and lichen at the root and keeps surfaces clear for years.
In Kilkenny we usually recommend adding a biocide at the same visit as the clean, because a second mobilisation costs more than the treatment does.
- Kills the spores and root filaments cleaning cannot reach
- Typically two to four years before regrowth is visible
- Applied at the labelled rate with drains and planting protected
- The safe way to deal with heavy roof moss
- Not a sealer — it does not change the surface finish

Frequently asked
How much does biocide treatment cost in Kilkenny?
From €90 for a typical domestic job, but the honest answer is that it depends on size, access and condition. We give you a fixed written price before any work starts, and there is no call-out fee for looking at it.
Do you actually travel to Kilkenny?
Yes. Kilkenny and the surrounding County Kilkenny area — including Callan, Thomastown, Castlecomer, Graiguenamanagh, Bennettsbridge — are part of our regular round. Tell us your address and we will confirm availability straight away.
Can you clean limestone safely?
Yes, with the right method. Limestone is porous and marks easily, so we use low pressure, appropriate chemistry and a test panel — never a rotary cleaner or a high-pressure lance.
How soon can you start?
Most quotes go out within 24 hours and we can usually schedule within the same week. Exterior work depends on the forecast, and we will move a date at no cost rather than rush a job in the rain.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry public liability insurance and will send the certificate with your quote. Property managers and commercial clients can also request a method statement and risk assessment.
