Cleaning Away The Winter

PMAC to the Rescue
As winter fades and spring takes hold, it’s the perfect time for cleaning and refreshing your home’s exterior. Over time, harsh winter weather conditions cause a build-up of dirt, grime, and moss—particularly on roofs, gutters, and facades. When it comes to a professional cleaning, PMAC stands out as the go-to expert, ensuring your home is left spotless and in top condition.
Why Choose PMAC?
PMAC professionals are highly trained in operating Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs), ensuring that all health and safety regulations are upheld at all times. Their expertise extends to a variety of specialised cleaning techniques, including the DOFF steam cleaning system, which is perfect for removing winter stubborn dirt and organic matter without causing damage to delicate surfaces.
Removing Years of Moss Build Up
One of PMAC’s recent projects involved the removal of extensive winter moss build-up on the roof of a bungalow with a double-story extension. The thick moss had accumulated over years, creating not only an unsightly appearance but also potential damage to the roof’s integrity. The task required a careful, professional cleaning approach to ensure the best results.
The Cleaning Process
The job began with a facade team member accessing the higher first-story section using a MEWP. The process required patience and precision, as the thick moss needed to be loosened before removal. The team employed a combination of methods to ensure an effective and damage-free clean:
- Loosening the Moss: Using a rotary brush, the team worked skilfully to break down the stubborn moss clumps.
- Steam Pressure Cleaning: Once loosened, a controlled steam pressure system was applied to gently lift and remove the remaining debris.
- Special Care for Solar Panels: With 18 solar panels installed on the roof, extreme caution was exercised in cleaning the surrounding areas without causing any damage.
- Debris Collection and Disposal: Once the moss was removed, all debris was collected and disposed of responsibly, ensuring a tidy finish.
- Final Touches: The roof, gutters, and windows were thoroughly rinsed before applying a biocide treatment to prevent future moss growth.
Transformational Results
The end result was nothing short of remarkable. The roof was restored to its original condition, enhancing the overall aesthetic of the property while also prolonging its lifespan and the windows and walls were positively gleaming. The homeowners were thrilled with the outcome and shared their positive feedback:
“We chose PMAC because they have an outstanding reputation and we knew they would do an amazing job – they did not let us down! In fact, the team went above and beyond to ensure a flawless result. We cannot recommend PMAC highly enough! “
