Biocide Treatment in Limerick
Biocide treatment across Limerick and the surrounding County Limerick area, for homes, apartment blocks and commercial premises.
Why Limerick properties need this
Limerick's Georgian core is brick and lime mortar — genuinely fragile, and permanently damaged by pressure washing. The suburbs are modern render and paving, where standard methods apply.
For biocide treatment specifically, Limerick's Georgian brick and lime mortar is permanently damaged by pressure and must be cleaned by other means — 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 Limerick 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 Limerick?
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 Limerick?
Yes. Limerick and the surrounding County Limerick area — including Castletroy, Dooradoyle, Raheen, Annacotty, Corbally — are part of our regular round. Tell us your address and we will confirm availability straight away.
Can historic brick be cleaned safely?
Yes, but not with a pressure washer. Soft washing, controlled hot water or a poultice are the appropriate methods, and any of them starts with a test panel in a discreet spot.
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.
