The exterior appeal of your commercial building makes a statement about your business. If your building looks grimy and offensive on the outside, it gives people the impression that your business operates in a similar manner. Pressure washing your commercial building is an important factor in sustaining a viable business. This type of property requires proper maintenance for the purpose of preserving its value and making sure any and all occupants are safe....and impressed!  Pressure washing a commercial property contributes to these business goals while mitigating costs. Here we discuss three primary reasons why it works.

How your customers, employees and tenants feel about your building influences the success of your business.

• Customers. A clean, well-maintained building attracts new customers as well as encourages return visits from current customers.
• Employees. Your staff members feel good about working in a building with excellent curb appeal. They are on the front line of building a word-of-mouth reputation.
• Tenants. Whether you are renting or leasing to commercial or residential tenants, you will attract tenants that take better care of their spaces and are financially responsible.
  

Maintaining the exterior of a building entails a constant battle with the encroaching environment. Dirt, grime from environmental pollutants, algae, mold, moss, grease stains, chemical spills, organic debris, insect infestations and animal or bird droppings are highly destructive. They contain compounds that weaken the structure of building materials at the molecular level, leading to rot and decay. Pressure washing your commercial property helps to maintain its integrity and reduce the risk of costly, major damage. 

The same environmental factors that damage your building can wreak havoc with its safety factor. Uncleanliness on the exterior can have immediate and long terms effects on the people using the facility. Pressure washing is a preventative safety measure.

• Fall risk. Algae, mold, moss, debris and slick stains on walkways, sidewalks, stairs and parking lot surfaces can cause people to slip and fall. It is a common risk for workplace accidents and for visitors attempting to access the building.
• Air quality. Dust, particles from dirt and bird droppings and toxic organic spores easily enter the building's windows, doors, intake air vents and AC units. This has negative health consequences that can trigger allergies, breathing issues and disease.
