1. Why have your commercial building washed and how it increases the life expectancy of the paint

Regular exterior washing of your commercial building keeps its appearance fresh and inviting. But did you know that it also helps to extend the life of the paint? Dirt, grime, moulds, and other pollutants can damage the paint. The paint becomes compromised and deteriorates over time.

Washing your building regularly has many benefits. It removes harmful substances. It also increases your paint's lifespan. Finally, it saves you money on expensive repainting jobs.

Here is some more info from Resene Paints on how regular washing can prevent premature paint breakdown.

2. What techniques do we use to wash the building?

We use a soft washing technique to clean your building's exterior thoroughly. Pressure washing (water blasting) removes tough stains from hard surfaces, like concrete or brick.

On the other hand, soft washing is best for delicate surfaces like stucco or wood. It requires a gentler approach to avoid damage. We also have gear that lets us soft wash up to 10 meters from the ground. This saves money on hiring Elevated Work Platforms.
