Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we specialize in tackling the toughest exterior cleaning challenges across the United Kingdom. Recently, a client approached us in Runcorn with a significant black lichen infestation on their patio. The lichen had completely obscured the natural look of the patio, making the patio less appealing. Despite their multiple tries with a standard home pressure washer, the customer was unable to clean off the grime and had started losing hope. This report details how we brought back their patio to its original beauty.

Client Issues

• Black Lichen Infestation: The patio was plagued with stubborn black lichen stains, fully obscuring its original color.
• Ineffective DIY Efforts: The customer had made numerous efforts using a domestic jet wash, which proved ineffective and could not eliminate the stains.

Solution

Upon being called, we promptly conducted a property assessment to determine the severity of the lichen problem and develop an effective cleaning strategy. Here’s a step-by-step overview of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We inspected the customer’s property to assess the severity of the lichen infestation and identify the scope of the project. We provided a thorough explanation of our method and provided a quotation, which the customer accepted.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: We arranged the cleaning at a suitable date for the customer. On the day of the service, we set up our high-powered cleaning equipment and a 21-inch flat surface cleaner to guarantee a deep clean.

3. Commercial Pressure Washing: Using our high-pressure equipment, we started the cleaning process. The large surface tool worked through the layers of grime and took off most of the black lichen staining, restoring much of the patio’s original appearance.

4. Application of Soft Wash Solution: After the initial cleaning, we applied a specialized solution designed to prevent rapid regrowth. This essential phase keeps organic contaminants at bay, ensuring a longer-lasting clean.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: Upon completing the cleaning process, we invited the customer to inspect the patio. They were extremely satisfied with the results and did not identify any areas needing further attention. The customer signed off on the work, sharing their happiness with the results.

6. Annual Maintenance Plan: Impressed with the results, the customer asked for an annual maintenance service. We set up a plan to come back annually to reapply the soft wash solution, keeping the patio’s spotless appearance.

Results

The change was stunning. The patio, once plagued by black lichen stains, was restored to its natural state. The customer was ecstatic with the outcome, noting a noticeable difference in the appearance and usability of their outdoor space.
