A Listing Of Tasks Pressure Washing Can Take Care Of

By Ericka Marsh


The number of things, setting outside, in Holly Springs NC that get dirty is a very large number. Commercial buildings, houses, sidewalks, parking lots and gazebos are just a few of these things. There are many reasons for this and two of the biggest are the wind and rain. The interior of many commercial buildings will also get dirty, however, the cause of this are usually personnel related. No matter what gets dirty or how it does, the best course of action to get it cleaned up is by calling a company that provides the pressure washing you need for this.

This type of cleaning, often called power washing or pressure cleaning uses a machine that generates the appropriate pressures. This forced flow of water mechanically acts on the soils and powers them away. These pressures are between 250 and about 6500 PSI. The designation of PSI, in this case, means pounds per square inch.

Chemicals are not needed for this cleaning to work as the system uses the pressures generated, combined with an appropriate nozzle. Since chemicals are not needed, the places in which this cleaning process can be used are a long list. The runoff, and there is quite a bit, can flow into normal street or sanitary drains. This is important as these drains, in Holly Springs NC, flow right into creeks, streams and the groundwater table.

Each particular surface or, more specifically, soil on that surface reacts to a specific pressure and nozzle combination. The professional cleaner is in the best position to select that, based on the pressures and nozzles they carry with them. They have been doing this for quite some time so they have experience to guide them, along with their learned preferences.

The selections of nozzles consist of a few specialized ones and a lot that are simply fans of various degrees of arc. The most popular specialized one is the oscillating power head, often simply called the power head. It has several nozzles that rotate around a straight flow that agitates the sticky goo to move it off of the surface.

Other nozzles will present a straight flow of water or a fan spray that includes all angles up to 180 degrees. These wide fans are used to sweep leaves or other non sticky debris from a surface. It can also be used to clean a roof, ensure a complete clean of walls, inside an area, such as chemical formulating areas. They can also make quick work of exterior windows, statuary, benches, walkways and fencing.

A very interesting set of tasks for these professionals, equipped with this machine and supplies, are the ones that find a properly trained crew cleaning inside of a food processing plant. These facilities, quite frequently, need a complete and thorough cleaning of the ceilings, walls, all processing tools and the drains. This is to present the space to the next shift as a germ and bacteria free work space.

In Holly Springs NC, if you have a commercial building, you need the attention of a crew who can do this type of cleaning. Whether it is the front of the building or the sides, it will get dirty and must be cleaned to give a good first impression. The entrance must be swept out in this way to be a welcoming space for guests. The outside break areas, especially those where smokers congregate, must also have something, like this, done to eliminate the sticky tar and nicotine from all surfaces.
