🏡 From Tired & Contaminated… to Fresh & Protected! 🧼✨
This large property had a brick pavement all around it — and it was in rough shape. Black mould and lichens had taken over. Surprisingly, it had been “cleaned” just 2 years ago by another company… but here’s the thing:
💧 High pressure washing alone is NOT enough.
Yes, it blasts away the dirt you can see. But for contaminants like mould, algae, or lichen — all it really does is spread their spores across your entire property. Months later, you’re back to square one… often in an even worse condition than before.
Why do some companies only use high pressure?
✅ It’s faster.
✅ It’s cheaper.
✅ They don’t need to handle chemicals or wear full protective breathing equipment.
✅ No need for knowledge of the correct treatments and biocides.
❌ But… the results don’t last.
Here’s what we did instead 👇
1️⃣ Full gutter and PVC wash.
2️⃣ Pre-treated the brick pavement with specialist chemicals to kill all organic growth — including deep-rooted lichens.
3️⃣ Professional high pressure clean for the best finish.
4️⃣ Re-sanded the joints (important to stop bricks moving, prevent gaps for w**ds, and avoid sunken areas).
5️⃣ Applied a long-lasting biocide to protect the surface for years to come.
Yes, it’s a bigger investment up front 💷 — but the results speak for themselves, and this customer will enjoy a brand new look for a long time.
From now on, all it needs is occasional maintenance with w**d killers we’ve recommended, plus a future biocide reapplication — a far gentler and more cost-effective process than repeated aggressive washes.
