Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we take pride in tackling the toughest exterior cleaning issues across the United Kingdom. Recently, a customer approached us in Bury with a severe black lichen infestation on their patio. The lichen had entirely masked the original color of the patio, making the outdoor space unsightly and uninviting. Despite their attempts with a domestic jet wash from B&Q, the customer was unable to remove the lichen and had started losing hope. This report details how we restored their patio to its original beauty.

Obstacles Faced

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

Our Approach

Upon being contacted, we immediately conducted a property assessment to assess the extent of the infestation and develop an effective cleaning strategy. Here’s a explanation of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We inspected the customer’s property to evaluate the severity of the lichen infestation and evaluate the difficulties faced. We discussed our cleaning plan and provided a quotation, which the customer accepted.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: We scheduled 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 guarantee a deep clean.

3. Commercial Pressure Washing: Using our high-pressure equipment, we commenced the cleaning process. The advanced cleaner worked through the layers of grime and eliminated the majority 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 soft wash solution designed to break the cycle of organic growth. This important stage stops future infestations, ensuring a longer-lasting clean.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: Upon finishing the project, we invited the customer to inspect the patio. They were very pleased with the results and did not identify any areas needing further attention. 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 planned to revisit annually to reapply the soft wash solution, keeping the patio’s spotless appearance.

Transformation

The transformation was amazing. The patio, once dominated by black lichen stains, was brought back to its natural state. The customer was thrilled with the outcome, noting a major upgrade in the appearance and usability of their entertaining area.
