The external surfaces of your property are always permanently exposed to the elements. The sun’s UV radiation, in particular, can cause your otherwise immaculate finish to fade and become dull and listless. 

Dirt, grit, soot, and grime can also give a dirty and unkempt look, while acidic bird droppings can eat right through the finishes of your roof, siding, and deck. Apart from that, your parking lot, driveway, and garage floor might be full of oil and grease stains. 

All of these issues can cause many problems, and only professional house-washing services can help ensure the longevity of your property. Let’s take a quick look at some of the hidden dangers of not maintaining your property.

Clogged Gutters

Your gutters and downspouts play an important role in keeping your property safe and well-maintained. If the gutters become clogged with leaves, twigs, and other debris, they won’t be able to channel the water safely away from your property. The excess water will spill over onto your roof, walls, and even the basement. If left unchecked, it can even compromise the structural integrity of your home! 

Here professional pressure-washing and gutter-cleaning specialists will clean your gutters and eliminate any potential seepage-related issues.  

Concrete Structures

Concrete is a very porous surface and is prone to the ingress of dirt, grit, and mud deep inside the pores. During the rainy season, water mixes with the mud and creates ideal breeding grounds for weeds, fungi, and other organic pollutants. They slowly grow roots and eventually split your concrete slabs apart. If you don’t have your driveway pressure washed frequently, you might have to pay for extensive repairs. 

Moreover, oil and grease stains can create slip hazards and cause accidents. However, timely power washing will blast away all these stains and make your driveway a much safer place. 

Organic Parasites

Black algae is a pervasive parasite that thrives in the shady areas of your roof. Apart from creating large dark and ugly blotches, it also traps moisture inside your shingles. This attracts other even worse contaminants such as lichen, mold, and mildew. Once they grow roots, they will crack and eventually rupture your shingles. The longer you delay your next pressure-washing session, the worse the infestation will become, until you will have to replace your entire roof!

However, pressure-washing experts will use a combination of eco-friendly detergents and potent herbicides to effectively wash your roof and remove all the organic and inorganic pollution. Apart from increasing its service life, they will also restore your roof to its original splendor. 

Finally, they will lock in its shine by using top-quality sealing agents so it becomes impervious to the elements.
