A big thank you to the team at CCWC Services for the brilliant job recently completed on our unit in Barry.
The works included a full strip and clean-down of the cladding on both the roof and side elevations, followed by a complete respray using Dulux Cladshield. The transformation has been remarkable — the unit now looks smart, professional, and weather-protected.
The added bonus? The Dulux Cladshield product comes with an 8-year guarantee, giving us long-term peace of mind and protection from the elements.
From the first visit to the final coat, the team was reliable, well-organised, and clearly experienced in what they do. They kept disruption to a minimum and delivered exactly what they promised, on time and to a high standard.
Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend CCWC Services — top marks.

I was never going to leave the review up and I’m sure your business is very good but it did look like you were being arrogant and you literally looked like you were laughing as you pulled out but maybe that was our mistake.

CCWC told us from the start this was something they could do and didn’t let us down. The job was done to a very high standard and exactly what we needed, taking away all the stress we had previously had. Definitely recommend and would 100% use their services again.

We contacted CCWC services because we had just got a new 25,000sqft Warehouse that needed cleaning. The new Warehouse consisted of 3 large warehouses knocked into 1 large Warehouse. Each Warehouse had white panels all the way around that had collected so much dust, grease & dirt. I contacted CCWC and I heard back from them the same day and we arranged a meeting. I was met at the Warehouse by a lovely gentleman who was super helpful and explained in details what they would do to achieve best results. When the quote was agreed a booking was made to have a team on sight to have the work done. The two gentlemen who came on sight to do the work were again so helpful, so kind and very good working guys. They managed to finish the job in a couple of days and the outcome was stunning. I was very shocked to see the huge difference the clean had made. The panels come up like new and all the walls/panels were dust, grease and dirt free. So I was a happy lady. The whole round service from the company was 10/10 from start to finish. I would highly recommend this company for any industrial cleaning like I had. I have certainly kept this team in my "save" file as I wouldn’t hesitate in using them again. Thank you for all your hard work. Karen

You have questions?

What is a doff steam cleaning machine?

A doff steam cleaning machine is a type of commercial-grade steam cleaner that utilizes superheated water and pressurised steam. It is typically used for some deep-cleaning applications such as the removal of dirt, grime, and other stubborn stains from surfaces like brick, concrete, stone, wood and more.

The machine is capable of generating temperatures up to 150°C (300°F) and as high-pressure levels as 5 bar (72psi), making it an ideal tool for tough cleaning jobs.

How does a doff steam cleaning machine work?

The doff steam cleaning machine works by heating water to a boiling point until it vaporizes into pressurised steam. The intense heat and pressure of the steam is then directed at a surface, breaking down dirt and debris for easy removal.

The heat of the steam also helps to kill bacteria, mold, and viruses on contact, making it suitable for use in hospitals, schools, supermarkets and other public places where cleanliness is of paramount importance.

What are the benefits of using a doff steam cleaning machine?

The main benefits of using a doff steam cleaning machine include:

• Quick and efficient removal of dirt, debris, bacteria, mold and viruses on contact.
• Non-toxic and eco-friendly – leaving no toxic residue or dangerous fumes after cleaning.
• Touchless operation – the pressurised steam can reach difficult-to-access areas which would not be possible with traditional cleaning methods.
• No scrubbing or chemical products are required for deep cleaning – saving time and money.
• Heat from the steam helps to remove stubborn stains and marks.

What is Doff steam cleaning?

CCWC Services Doff steam cleaning is a specialized cleaning method used for sensitive and historical building surfaces.

The combination of high temperature and low pressure makes Doff steam cleaning a preferred method for delicate and historic surfaces, providing thorough cleaning without risking damage.

Is Doff Cleaning Safe?

Surface Safety: It’s gentle on surfaces, especially important for historic and delicate materials where harsher methods could cause damage.
Environmental Safety: Doff cleaning does not rely on chemicals, making it environmentally friendly and safe for surrounding plant life and ecosystems.
