Signs Your Business Requires Pressure Washing Services

There are many signs that your business requires pressure washing services. Some are more obvious and some aren’t, at least not to the uninitiated. Let’s be honest, everyone that isn’t a professional pressure washer is uninitiated when it comes to the less obvious signs that your business requires pressure washing services.

If you take a quick survey of the exterior of your commercial facility and see dirt, debris, stains, and/or other topical contaminants, and you’re not able to clean what you see using basic cleaning tools and supplies, then this suggests that more heavy-duty measures need to be taken. It’s important to know if and when those heavy-duty measures include pressure washing, so here are 5 signs your business is in need of it:

Repairs

If you’re suddenly incurring a lot of repair costs to your facility without any clear reasons or expectations, it could be because the build up of dirt and debris in unusual areas is causing damage. Damage that isn’t caused by an accident or natural disaster is often a sign that certain parts of your facility need pressure washing services.

Curb Appeal

Without sufficient care and maintenance, every facility will eventually look tired. It’s not one single surface or area that needs attention, but a combination of everything. This is the opposite of curb appeal. If your facility lacks curb appeal and you can’t tell what specifically needs attention, your entire facility may be in need of pressure washing.

Illness & Health Issues

If you, your employees, patrons of your business, or visitors to your business or the area mysteriously fall ill, then it could be a sign you require pressure washing services. Unaddressed pest issues such as bird droppings could pose a risk to health and safety. Over time, the build up is difficult to remove. Eventually, pressure washing may be your only option.

Vandalism

In the unfortunate event that your business is vandalized – specifically, if unsanctioned and unsavory graffiti appears on or around your commercial facility – then you’re going to need professional pressure washing services. Spray paint and other types of topical vandalism can damage your business’s image as well as its structure, and is all but impossible to remove without pressure washing.

Increased Energy Costs

Commercial facilities that aren’t properly maintained may incur greater energy costs for multiple reasons. One way is that windows that aren’t routinely serviced will fade or get stained, letting in less light. This can require more energy usage to heat the interior of your commercial facility. Another example is when there is so much dirt and debris built up around that your facility’s ventilation and insulation are thrown off balance. This may require you to use more energy to cool the interior during warmer weather.
