Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we take pride in tackling the most challenging exterior cleaning challenges across the United Kingdom. Recently, a client approached us in Bilston with a persistent black lichen infestation on their patio. The lichen had completely obscured the original color of the patio, making the outdoor space unsightly and uninviting. Despite their multiple tries with a store-bought pressure washer, the customer was unable to remove the lichen and had almost given up hope. This project summary details how we brought back their patio to its former glory.

Client Issues

• Black Lichen Infestation: The patio was dominated with entrenched black lichen stains, fully obscuring its original color.
• Ineffective DIY Efforts: The customer had spent many hours using a domestic jet wash, which only left streaks and did not remove the lichen.

Our Approach

Upon being contacted, we promptly conducted a property assessment to determine the severity of the lichen problem and formulate an effective cleaning strategy. Here’s a detailed breakdown of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We went to the customer’s property to evaluate the severity of the lichen infestation and evaluate the challenges involved. We explained our approach in detail and offered a price estimate, which the customer approved.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: We set up the cleaning at a suitable date for the customer. On the day of the service, we prepared our industrial-strength washer and a specialized flat surface cleaner to ensure thorough cleaning.

3. Commercial Pressure Washing: Using our powerful equipment, we commenced the cleaning process. The advanced cleaner quickly removed debris and took off most of the black lichen staining, bringing back much of the patio’s intended beauty.

4. Application of Soft Wash Solution: After the preliminary cleaning, we applied a specialized solution designed to inhibit new lichen formation. This crucial step prevents the rapid return of lichen, ensuring a longer-lasting clean.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: Upon completing the cleaning process, we asked the customer to review the patio. They were thrilled with the results and did not see any issues. The customer signed off on the work, expressing their delight with the transformation.

6. Annual Maintenance Plan: Thrilled with the results, the customer requested an annual maintenance service. We agreed to return annually to perform a maintenance wash, keeping the patio’s pristine condition.

Results

The change was stunning. The patio, once overrun by black lichen stains, was restored to its bright, clean appearance. The customer was thrilled with the outcome, noting a noticeable difference in the look and functionality of their patio area.
