Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we take pride in tackling the most challenging exterior cleaning projects across the United Kingdom. Recently, a client approached us in Camborne with a persistent black lichen infestation on their patio. The lichen had covered up the original color of the patio, making the area unsightly and uninviting. Despite their attempts with a domestic jet wash from B&Q, the customer was unable to remove the lichen and had almost given up hope. This project summary details how we renewed their patio to its original beauty.

Client Issues

• Black Lichen Infestation: The patio was plagued with stubborn black lichen stains, completely masking its original color.
• Ineffective DIY Efforts: The customer had invested considerable time using a domestic jet wash, which proved ineffective and could not eliminate the stains.

Cleaning Process

Upon being reached out to, we immediately conducted a site survey to assess the extent of the infestation and plan an effective cleaning strategy. Here’s a step-by-step overview of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We visited the customer’s property to assess the severity of the lichen infestation and evaluate the challenges involved. We discussed our cleaning plan and offered a price estimate, which the customer approved.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: We arranged the cleaning at a suitable date for the customer. On the day of the service, we prepared our high-powered cleaning equipment and a large-surface cleaning tool to ensure thorough cleaning.

3. Commercial Pressure Washing: Using our powerful equipment, we started the cleaning process. The advanced cleaner worked through the layers of grime and took off most of the black lichen staining, bringing back much of the patio’s natural look.

4. Application of Soft Wash Solution: After the first stage of cleaning, we applied a gentle cleaning formula designed to inhibit new lichen formation. This essential phase prevents the rapid return of lichen, ensuring a longer-lasting clean.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: Upon wrapping up the service, we invited the customer to check the patio. They were very pleased with the results and did not see any issues. The customer signed off on the work, showing appreciation for the outcome.

6. Annual Maintenance Plan: Thrilled with the results, the customer asked for an annual maintenance service. We planned to revisit annually to perform a maintenance wash, preserving the patio’s beautiful look.

Outcome

The transformation was remarkable. The patio, once dominated by black lichen stains, was returned to its original color and beauty. The customer was thrilled with the outcome, noting a major upgrade in the look and functionality of their patio area.
