When we handle hoa & apartment pressure washing for concrete in Durham, NC, it comes down to three things: protecting your plants and property, cleaning with the right method, and walking the job with you at the end. On concrete, the method we use is pressure wash with a surface cleaner.
Method and pressure
Cleaning solution: A degreaser for oil spots and a pre-treatment for organic growth; post-treatment slows regrowth.
Caring for concrete
Plain broom-finish concrete is the surface pressure washing is made for. A rotary surface cleaner gives an even finish without the stripes a wand leaves, and hot water helps with grease and oil.
Avoid: Holding a narrow tip close to the surface, which etches lines into the cream layer of the concrete.
How often: Every year, or every 6 months in shaded, damp spots.

Local hoa & apartment pressure washing for concrete for Durham, NC
In North Carolina, commercial buildings and sidewalks often need cleaning several times a year, because mildew, gum and grime build up quickly in the heat.
Parts of North Carolina are exposed to hurricanes and tropical storms. After a storm, washing removes mud, debris and salt spray from siding, screens and walkways. Check for damage first: loose siding, broken screens and roof damage need repair before anyone washes them.
Near the coast, salt air leaves a film on siding, windows, screens and railings that dulls finishes and speeds up corrosion on metal. Regular rinsing and washing help protect them.
