Frequently Asked Pressure Washing Questions - Answered By TLC Exterior Cleaning Services

Exterior cleaning for your home or business is an essential part of routine maintenance, and TLC Exterior Cleaning Services is the obvious choice for local service. However, we also know that a vital part of being the preferred resource for pressure washing in Cameron comes with the responsibility of educating consumers about the service, and here are some of the most common questions we receive.

What's The Difference Between Soft Washing And Pressure Washing?

Pressure washing has sort of become the general term for anything under the umbrella of exterior cleaning. However, it's crucial to point out that we offer more than just standard pressure washing because not all of your exterior surfaces are meant to withstand the harsh blast of power washing equipment. We also use cleaning methods like soft washing, which relies on cleaning solutions for safe but effective cleaning. We don't believe in using the same approach to take care of your asphalt shingles as we do your concrete, and that's how we provide a thorough but damage-free service.


What Are Those Black Streaks On My Roof?

Although the average homeowner doesn't realize it, the black streaks that appear on your roof is an alga called Gloeocapsa magma. It feeds on the asphalt granules, and the lines are caused when rain washes it down the roof - but not off. Without regular roof cleaning, your roof is being slowly destroyed by this algae. It's not just problematic for your curb appeal; it's a threat to the structural integrity of your roofing system.


Should I DIY My Pressure Washing Project?

There's never a good reason to take pressure washing into your own hands - literally. Although home improvement retailers like to convince customers otherwise because they sell power washing equipment, it's a job that's better left to trained and experienced professionals. The risk of bodily injury and property damage is too significant to make it worthwhile. Plus, professionals deliver a more thorough job and choose the appropriate method for cleaning the surface.


Are Your Cleaning Chemicals Environmentally Friendly?

At TLC Exterior Cleaning Services, we pride ourselves on taking every step possible to be an environmentally responsible company. Our cleaning solutions are Eco-friendly without compromising cleaning effectiveness. You can feel good about contacting our company to handle your exterior cleaning job.
