These are just a few of the most common external areas which can be pressure cleaned or soft washed.
House washing the walls, soffits and underside of gutters to remove all of the daily grime, dirt, spider webs, wasp nests and mud wasps. An obvious area which can be seen from ground level. It can definitely lift the appearance of any home and you may not need that coat of paint to freshen it up in the first place.
One of the largest areas which can accumulate a lot of algae, mould, lichen, moss, fungus or animal droppings which is generally overlooked. A roof can go many years without a clean and some houses definitely show their age if this is the case.
Rain can remove lightly attached particles such as dust and dirt. However the heavier baked on organic matter isn’t as easily removed by the rain. One other important factor to consider is if a water tank is attached to the roof. Your water run-off is passing through all of this bacteria, dirt and grime and can adversely affect the condition of the water and potentially your health and wellbeing.
Cement/Concrete car parks can definitely become an eye sore with multiple tyre marks, oil spills and dirt build up from the constant use they endure.
Pebblecrete, plain concrete, painted or stencilled driveways are frequently used at home. Mould and moss can grow on any of these surfaces and can create a slippery environment. It can affect the age and look of your driveway, pathways or stairs if not maintained.
A fundamentally important commodity around the home or office which harnesses the power of the sun, is the solar panel. Over time, similar to the roof, it can become covered in mould, lichen, dirt and grime. It requires more frequent cleaning than the roof as this will ensure you are getting the most efficiency out of your panels all year round which means more savings for you.
Blocked gutters can adversely affect water drainage of your roof. Leaves, sticks, clumps of moss and even plants with roots can all accumulate in your gutters and downpipes. These can cause blockages quite quickly especially if you live in an area with many large trees. It can eventually lead to more serious issues such as rust or water ingress in your soffits
