Like any exterior surface, brick collects dirt over time and needs to be cleaned. Our team at 4 Seasons SoftWash has extensive experience in exterior cleaning, and you can count on us to keep your bricks spotless and in excellent condition. In this article, we will go over some key information about how to get the most out of brick washing for your home or commercial building.
- Avoid High Pressure. When it comes to brick washing, we advise against using traditional pressure washing methods. The water pressure used in this method is often strong enough to damage clay bricks, especially if the bricks are old. Instead, we recommend using soft washing, which uses a much gentler level of water pressure that will keep your bricks safe.
- Use a Cleaning Solution. The reason our team is able to use lower water pressure in our brick washing services is because in soft washing, the bricks are first treated with a specialized cleaning solution. Our blend of cleaning agents is eco-friendly, and it is designed to loosen dirt particles and to kill damaging and stain-causing organisms such as mold, mildew, algae, and bacteria. Once our solution has done its job, all the grime can be washed away using low-pressure water.
- Maximize Long-Term Effectiveness. Compared to traditional power washing, our preferred method of brick washing produces a longer-lasting clean. Soft washing kills stain-causing organisms, which in turn keeps your bricks cleaner for a longer period of time compared to bricks washed with water alone.
