Facade cleaning is extremely vital for any building owner. The facade represents the business to the public. A clean facade allows transpiration of moisture which works as a waterproof shield for the building. If there are areas that need repairing, it is more easy to find the patches from a clean facade. Pressure washing shows all the damaged places, doesn’t create dust and creates very little cleaning residue. We wash different types of facades, for example, plaster, wood and tin surfaces.

Façade inspection is as much art as it is science. According to ASTM E2270, Standard Practice for Periodic Inspection of Building Façades for Unsafe Conditions, inspections are to be conducted under the direct supervision of a qualified professional such as a registered architect or engineer. More importantly however, inspectors should be familiar with how building façades are designed and constructed, how façade materials interact with one another subject to the elements, imposed loads and movements listed above, as well as the possible failure mechanisms involved. Determining the root cause of a deficiency can be very challenging, though possible if you possess the necessary skills and experience. This is what makes façade inspection so satisfying to qualified professionals.
