How long will it take to deep clean the area?
To clean an area of block paving the size of 6 car parking spaces would take less than a day. This includes cleaning, thorough rinsing and washing down of the whole area.
What does the deep cleaning of block paving consist?
This would consist of the thorough deep cleaning of the block paving, the washing down of the entire area including windows, doors and anything else that may have been splashed. When the area was completely dry a return visit would be arranged to brush in new sand between the blocks where appropriate.
How much does this cost?
This of course, depends on the size of the area, it’s condition, what type of surface it is, the location the access available etc. However, we are happy to supply a written quotation for you to view in your own time. If you then have any questions we would be delighted to hear from you to reassure you.
How long does the cleaning last?
This again depends on various factors such as how much use it has, are vehicles driven on the area, is there a great deal of damp, is it is a shadey area. However, one should expect it to last between 9 months and 3 years.
How do you remove the graffiti?
This is done through appylying a biodegradable chemical, leaving it to penetrate the graffiti and then through the use of water that is pressurised and heated to a maximum temperature of 150 degrees C, it melts away the graffiti.
Will it remove all the graffiti?
No company can or should guarantee that it will remove 100% of the graffiti everytime as it depends on how long the graffiti has been there, the porousity of the brick, stone etc. the type of surface, the type of paint used, the location and other factors. However, with the equipment that is used we have every confidence that we will achieve the best results that can be obtained for you.
When is the best time to remove graffiti?
Without doubt, the sooner it is removed the better before it has time to dry within the brick. However, we have removed graffiti that has been left for several years but this is extremely time consuming and would have been much easier and cheaper if it had been removed when it was first applied.
