Cleaning can be a tiresome task, especially the exterior of your home. It’s even worse with all the falling leaves in the backyard, the dirt on the driveways and sidewalks, and don’t get me started on clogged gutters.
Regardless, cleaning is still necessary as it is part of your exterior home improvement process.
But worry less because we are here for you. We offer home exterior cleaning services in Jacksonville and its surrounding.
There’s also the option of going DIY, though there is no guarantee it will be as clean as our professionals can get it. Here’s all you need to know.
Driveway and Sidewalk Cleaning
Most driveways and sidewalks are made of concrete, and cleaning concrete can be easy with good planning and the right materials.
Requirements include:
- A pressure washer
- Surface cleaner and
- Water
A pressure washer and a surface cleaner can be a little bit expensive, but for a satisfying look, you may consider acquiring one. Alternatively, getting a professional with all the equipment could also make the process easier.
Another thing to note is that concrete driveways and sidewalks do not need any chemicals to clean, you only need water, and it gets the job done; applying chemicals may cause damage to the concrete hence reducing its quality and durability
Gutters
Cleaning gutters is an essential part of home maintenance. Clogged gutters can eventually cause water damage and, in the long run, cost you money.
If you live in areas with lots of pine trees, you might consider cleaning your gutters at least once a month because the falling leaves will cause your gutter to clog a lot.
Some of the materials you’ll need in cleaning gutters include:
- Step ladder
- Gutter scoop
- Two baskets
- Garden hose
- Spray nozzle
- Drill and bits
- Pressure washer
