What is the DOFF cleaning system?

The gentle power of superheated steam

The DOFF system is unlike standard exterior cleaning methods. It uses superheated water vapour, reaching temperatures of up to 150°C at the nozzle end.

This combination of high heat, low pressure and minimal water volume melts away surface contaminants while protecting the original substrate. The result is a clean, refreshed surface without harsh chemicals or unnecessary water saturation.

Chemical free no harsh biocides

The DOFF advantage

Cleaning without compromise

DOFF is ideal where standard pressure washing is too aggressive, chemical treatments are undesirable, or the building surface requires a more controlled restoration method.

Zero surface damage

DOFF operates at low pressure, helping protect delicate substrates including heritage stone, brick, terracotta and tile from etching, cracking or surface damage.

150°C superheated steam

Superheated water vapour reaches temperatures of up to 150°C at the nozzle end, helping to lift grime, biological matter, paint and coatings effectively.

100% chemical free

The system relies on superheated steam rather than harsh chemicals or biocides, making it suitable for sensitive buildings, public spaces and environmentally conscious projects.

Heritage approved approach

DOFF is widely used where careful cleaning is essential, including listed buildings, historic facades, monuments and conservation-led projects.

Rapid drying

Using low water volumes, surfaces are not saturated. This helps cleaned areas dry quickly and reduces disruption around the property.

Suitable applications

For commercial, heritage and specialist exterior cleaning

The DOFF system is particularly useful where building appearance, substrate protection and public safety all matter. It can be used as part of planned maintenance, facade restoration, graffiti removal or sensitive heritage cleaning projects.
