Do you use high pressure for storefront cleaning?
Storefront Cleaning is done with soft wash and pressure wash. Low pressure and the right solution remove growth and dirt without damaging the surface, and the growth takes longer to come back.
Is storefront cleaning the same as storefront pressure washing?
Yes. Storefront pressure washing or sidewalk cleaning for businesses are other names for storefront cleaning. Whatever it's called, we use soft wash and pressure wash and match the pressure and cleaning solution to the surface.
Is storefront cleaning safe for my plants and pets?
We pre-wet plants and lawns, keep cleaning solutions diluted to what the surface needs, and rinse landscaping again when we finish. Keep pets and children inside until surfaces are rinsed and dry.
How often should I schedule storefront cleaning?
Monthly to quarterly. Shade, nearby trees, humidity and heavy traffic mean more frequent cleaning; sunny, dry spots can go longer. Our free cleaning frequency tool gives a recommendation for your climate.
What if it rains on the day?
Light rain doesn't stop most washing, but heavy rain, high wind, lightning and freezing temperatures do. If the weather isn't right, we reschedule at no charge. Our work is backed by a satisfaction guarantee.
