Aluminum Siding
Aluminum siding, based on condition, can be one of the easiest or the most
difficult sidings to clean and achieve desirable results. Once this siding
has gone past a certain point and conditions develop like pitting, thinning
and severe oxidation, cleaning may not restore its appearance to acceptable
levels. At this point, we recommend three options: (1) Live with the current
condition, (2) Heavy cleaning followed by repainting or, (3) Reside.
Part of our responsibility as a professional company is to protect the
consumer by being brutally honest even at the expense of a potential sale.
Sometimes
people don't want to hear that it would be in their best interest NOT TO
CLEAN but nobody wins when you achieve poor results and leave the customer
unhappy. To this end, Mobile
Power Wash of New England's experienced team
of estimators will closely inspect your siding to insure desirable results
can be achieved prior to the initiation of any cleaning. Once your property
is inspected any potential problem or situation is communicated both verbally
and further clarified in writing. The best surprise is no surprise!
Vinyl Siding
Everybody has seen a television commercial advertising maintenance free vinyl
siding. All you have to do is rinse it with a garden hose. Right? Anyone
who has tried this method of cleaning knows it to be much harder to clean.
Vinyl siding is obviously not maintenance free.
Although it is possible
to manually clean vinyl siding with a hose, bucket, brush and lots of elbow
grease, the
preferred
method recommended by many siding manufacturers is power washing.
This method, properly used, allows you to safely and efficiently restore
the
natural
beauty of your siding thus maintaining your investment.
Mobile Power Wash
of New England's cleaning process not only cleans and enhances the natural
beauty of your siding but can also leave adjacent dirty and stained
areas like gutters, foundations, walkways and steps clean so they don't detract
from the overall esthetic appeal of your property.
After thoroughly wetting
your surface and surrounding area, Mobile Power Wash of New England's
cleaning teams apply mild biodegradable cleaners, followed
by manual agitation (old fashioned elbow grease) as may be required, followed
by a LOW pressure wash and final rinse. Specialized equipment allows our
technicians to adjust the water temperature as needed from cold to hot.
Our experience has shown if you apply the proper cleaners at the
right temperature you don't have to compensate with higher water pressure
to try
to "force the dirt off".
Our "low pressure" cleaning process is both safe and effective
allowing us to achieve consistently superior results without the threat of
any damage. Our cleaners are effective at removing mold, mildew, dirt and
grime yet are biodegradable and safe for people, plants and animals. Our
process ends with a complete fresh water rinse of all the cleaned and surrounding
areas. All glass surfaces are triple rinsed to reduce the chance of any water
spots.
Once your siding has been cleaned we can suggest a complimentary "no
obligation" schedule
of periodic cleanings to insure your property stays in top shape. Beyond
the esthetic value achieved through these periodic cleanings you will be
protecting one of your biggest assets by properly maintaining it. After your
property is assessed and a schedule of cleanings is suggested, we will send
out reminders to inform you when a scheduled cleaning is due. We can even
schedule free periodic inspections to assess your property's current condition
and
adjust your schedule to insure your property stays in tiptop shape!
