Why Is Regular Façade Cleaning Important?
Regular building façade cleaning is vital for maintaining the visual impact of your property. This is especially important if your building regularly receives visitors, as first impressions always count. Regular façade cleaning also prevents long-term degradation, often a hidden danger that over-time can lead to structural integrity issues and eventuality the devaluation of your assets.
By maintaining and improving the appearance of your façades, you can prolong the lifespan of your building's materials, improve energy efficiency if you use solar panels, and maintain a professional, welcoming image for your visitors/ clients.
Here at Severn Access, we are experts at cleaning a wide variety of surfaces, including glass panels, stone and masonry surfaces, metal panels and cladding, painted and rendered surfaces, as well as industrial surfaces. We help you to preserve both the appearance and structural integrity of your property. Whether your building is modern or historic, our techniques can be tailored around your specific requirements.
Our Industrial & Commercial Façade Cleaning Services
Severn Access offers a wide range of façade cleaning techniques. We tailor our approach around the specific materials and design of your building, ensuring we don't cause any damage to its surface. Our services include:
-
Soft Washing: This is a gentle, low-pressure cleaning for delicate surfaces such as painted render and historic masonry.
-
Pressure Washing: This is high-powered cleaning for more robust surfaces and for contaminants that are particularity stubborn and embedded. Often used on buildings which have an exterior mainly made from stone, concrete, and metal.
-
Abrasive & Traditional Cleaning (Sandblasting): This is a deep form of cleaning for building exteriors which are particularly weathered, or for industrial surfaces which can stand up to abrasive methods.
-
Water-Fed Pole Systems: This is a high-reaching form of cleaning used predominately for the cleaning of windows and façades on tall buildings.
-
Eco-Friendly Detergents: Where possible, we always seek to use environmentally friendly and sustainable cleaning detergents and chemicals, especially when dealing with more sensitive surfaces.
The method we choose will be dependent on your building’s materials, design, condition, and height, ensuring maximum levels of cleanliness and minimal disruption to your business operations.
How Often Should I Clean my External Building’s Façade?
The frequency of cleaning depends on environmental factors, building materials, and location. Our experts at Severn Access provide guidance to create bespoke cleaning schedules for each property, helping prevent damage and maintain visual appeal. Factors affecting cleaning frequency include:
-
Urban pollution: soot, traffic residue, and airborne particles can build up rapidly.
-
Coastal exposure: salt deposits accelerate weathering and require regular maintenance.
-
Building materials: stone, masonry, and glass have different cleaning needs.
-
Weather conditions: rain, wind, and humidity influence dirt accumulation.
-
Usage and aesthetics: high-profile buildings may need more frequent attention.
Regular cleaning preserves the appearance and longevity of your building while avoiding the risk of costly repairs in the future. Severn Access tailors schedules that balance cost-efficiency and effectiveness, keeping façades looking pristine throughout the year.
Our team works with you to determine the right approach, whether your building requires quarterly, bi-annual, or annual cleaning, ensuring reliability in our approach and exceptional results every time.
