Introduction

At Mr Clever Clean, we focus on tackling the most challenging exterior cleaning issues across the United Kingdom. Recently, a customer approached us in Walsall with a severe black lichen infestation on their patio. The lichen had completely obscured the intended appearance of the patio, making the area less appealing. Despite their attempts with a standard home pressure washer, the customer was unable to remove the lichen and had felt discouraged. This project summary details how we restored their patio to its original beauty.

Client Issues

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

Cleaning Process

Upon being reached out to, we quickly conducted a property assessment to understand the scale of the cleaning required and develop an effective cleaning strategy. Here’s a detailed breakdown of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We inspected the customer’s property to assess the severity of the lichen infestation and identify the challenges involved. We provided a thorough explanation of our method and presented a quote, which the customer agreed to.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: We scheduled the cleaning at a agreed date for the customer. On the day of the service, we prepared our industrial-strength washer and a specialized flat surface cleaner to deliver effective results.

3. Commercial Pressure Washing: Using our powerful equipment, we began the cleaning process. The advanced cleaner effectively cut through the dirt and took off most of the black lichen staining, bringing back much of the patio’s original appearance.

4. Application of Soft Wash Solution: After the preliminary cleaning, we applied a specialized solution designed to prevent rapid regrowth. This important stage keeps organic contaminants at bay, ensuring a cleaner look over time.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: Upon wrapping up the service, we asked the customer to inspect the patio. They were extremely satisfied with the results and did not see any issues. The customer gave us the go-ahead, sharing their happiness with the results.

6. Annual Maintenance Plan: Pleased with the results, the customer arranged an annual maintenance service. We agreed to return annually to redo the cleaning, keeping the patio’s beautiful look.

Results

The transformation was stunning. The patio, once overrun by black lichen stains, was restored to its natural state. The customer was thrilled with the outcome, noting a major upgrade in the look and functionality of their patio area.
