Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we take pride in tackling the most stubborn exterior cleaning projects across the United Kingdom. Recently, a property owner approached us in Portishead with a persistent black lichen infestation on their patio. The lichen had covered up the intended appearance of the patio, making the outdoor space less appealing. Despite their efforts with a standard home pressure washer, the customer was unable to clean off the grime and had felt discouraged. This project summary details how we brought back their patio to its former glory.

Obstacles Faced

• 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 failed to make a difference and could not eliminate the stains.

Cleaning Process

Upon being reached out to, we quickly conducted a property assessment to determine the severity of the lichen problem and develop an effective cleaning strategy. Here’s a explanation of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We went to the customer’s property to evaluate the severity of the lichen infestation and understand the difficulties faced. We provided a thorough explanation of our method and provided a quotation, which the customer accepted.

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 high-powered cleaning equipment and a 21-inch flat surface cleaner to deliver effective results.

3. Commercial Pressure Washing: Using our high-pressure 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 intended beauty.

4. Application of Soft Wash Solution: After the initial cleaning, we applied a soft wash solution designed to break the cycle of organic growth. This important stage stops future infestations, ensuring a cleaner look over time.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: Upon completing the cleaning process, we encouraged the customer to check the patio. They were very pleased with the results and did not see any issues. The customer approved the results, sharing their happiness with the results.

6. Annual Maintenance Plan: Impressed with the results, the customer asked for an annual maintenance service. We agreed to return annually to reapply the soft wash solution, keeping the patio’s beautiful look.

Results

The change was amazing. The patio, once overrun by black lichen stains, was returned to its bright, clean appearance. The customer was delighted with the outcome, noting a major upgrade in the beauty and comfort of their entertaining area.
