When you are trying to upgrade your home or business, there is probably no more immediate return on investment than a good power washing. Its immediate effects can leave surfaces of your home or business clean, restored to their original colors, and looking better than ever. However, timing is everything and the rough Lake of the Ozarks climate can destroy surfaces faster than you think with the help of falling pollen, moisture, algae growth, and traffic from lake activities.
Spring Is a Strong Starting Point
Many people who own docks, patios, decks, and exterior siding prefer to have everything cleaned up before the busy season. Whether you are cleaning up for the rental season or before the summer season to have your property ready for family members to visit, cleaning the exterior of your property before the busy season starts helps make sure that everything is cleaned up just in time for the increased use before the busy season begins.
Before Painting or Staining
Like on the interior, there has to be a cleaning stage before you can even begin to apply any exterior refinish. Dirt, mildew, and loose particles interfere with paints and coatings by not allowing them to bond properly.
When Safety Becomes a Concern
Is your dock, walkway or deck looking a bit slippery? That may be a good time to have us treat your structure for algae and grime build up. These organisms can present quite a hazard on dry ground, but are especially troublesome when they occur in locations where water is involved.
After Heavy Seasonal Use
As vacation season comes to an end, your vacation rentals and lake homes are likely raking in the treasures of trash and debris from the summer months. Taking a mid-season refurbishment or end-of-season restoration can save your investment from permanent damage.
