Would you want your fire escape stairs looking like this?
We recently power-washed exterior fire escape stairs in Inverness that had become completely covered in green algae.
This is about more than just appearances.
Safety matters: Algae, moss and wet weather can make external stairs slippery underfoot. That’s a particular concern on fire escape routes, where people may need to move quickly during an emergency.
Protecting your building: Regular cleaning and maintenance help keep external stairways in good condition and make it easier to spot any damage that needs attention.
Keeping your site presentable: Green, dirty stairways can let down the appearance of an otherwise well-maintained building.
With winter approaching, rain and damp conditions make this a good time to check your external stairs and access routes.
Our team can help with fire escape stair cleaning, commercial pressure washing and other exterior maintenance to keep your premises clean and well maintained.
When did you last have your fire escape stairs cleaned?
If yours are starting to look like these did before we cleaned them, get in touch with the NEREC team to discuss your requirements.
