House Washing Services - Power Washing Exterior Cleaning Contractor

Keep your home beautiful with our house pressure washing services and prevent unnecessary expenses for repairs caused by dirt and debris deteriorating your home’s exterior. Adding power washing to your regular home maintenance plan will add value and great looks.
Maintenance:
With proper maintenance, your home will continually grow in value while being a source of pride for you and your family. Because homeowners are unsure of the proper materials to use or unable to find the time to do the job safely, exterior house washing is often overlooked and neglected. McCardel Restoration provides cleaning services to homeowners who wish to restore and protect their greatest investment – their home.
Keeping the exterior of your home clean will make your home more appealing. It will also increase its value and extend the life of the exterior, which will save you thousands of dollars in repair costs. House pressure washing services are very affordable, especially when you consider the benefits of power washing your homes’ exterior vs. replacement.
Benefits to Hiring a Professional:
While power washing your home is very cost efficient, it is also important that you understand the correct methods in cleaning your home’s exterior and why it is better left to a professional cleaning contractor. You can certainly attempt to power wash your home yourself, but If you do not have the proper equipment, know which cleaning products are right for the job, or know how to safely operate a power washer without causing damage to your home, it may be in your best interest to hire a licensed and insured cleaning contractor instead.
Although labor intensive, cleaning your home’s exterior is not difficult. However, if done incorrectly it can certainly cost much more than what you initially tried to save by doing the work yourself. This also applies to hiring someone to do the work that is not qualified. Just because someone owns a power washer doesn’t mean they are a trained professional. It is important for you to hire a power washing contractor that is punctual, is able to thoroughly explain their methods, can show you pictures of work that they have completed, and has documented referrals to back up their claims of being the best. This assures that your home will be cleaned correctly and without damage, providing beautiful results.
Deck Cleaning and Staining - Patio Power Washing Contractor

By having a professional cleaning contractor restore and protect your wood deck or patio by cleaning its surface and applying a commercial grade stain or sealer will increase its ability to last longer.
Maintenance:
Decks and patios have become a very popular, low-cost way to add living space to a home and provide a great space to relax, entertain friends, or enjoy outdoor dining. However, like all surfaces, they need to be properly maintained. Due to the damaging effects of weather, it is critical to have your deck and patio cleaned and sealed on a regular basis. If not properly maintained they quickly turn grey in color and deteriorate due to dirt, mold, and algae, gradually tearing apart the surface. Soon the damage is irreversible if not maintained routinely.
Benefits to Hiring a Professional:
Preventing this deterioration on your wood deck is easy if you keep these surfaces treated with a professional grade deck staining or wood deck sealing product that has been applied properly. But before you purchase a wood sealer from your local home improvement store, you should know that sealing decks is only one part of what it takes to do the job properly. Before deck stains or sealers are applied, the wood needs to thoroughly washed and cleaned with a power washer to remove the dirt, grime, and soil that has been imbedded deep into the wood’s grain. For most homeowners (and inexperienced professionals), using a power washer on wood can be very difficult. It is very easy to damage your deck while cleaning.
To prevent unnecessary repairs, your deck should only be trusted to a professional wood cleaning contractor, one that professionally cleans or strips your deck’s existing finish, uses cleaners that are safe around your plants and landscaping, properly neutralizes and brightens your deck, and applies a sealer that will be effective in preventing future deterioration. McCardel Restoration will not only restore your deck to like-new condition, but you can rest assured that the work will be done correctly and without the worry of damage.
Fleet Cleaning Services - Vehicle Cleaning Services

Maintenance:
If you have a fleet of company vehicles or if you own a business such as a car dealership, you know the importance of keeping your fleet or inventory clean. There are many reasons for each type of business that demands your cars, trucks and equipment stay in top condition. Whether it is to uphold the company image or to give customers the best possible first impression, it just has to be done and done regularly.
Benefits to Hiring a Professional:
When power washing fleets of vehicles on a wide scale, time is of essence. If your delivery trucks or sales vehicles are sitting instead of moving, then you're losing money and getting behind schedule. If you are presenting cars and trucks to the public, having a dirty lot of vehicles can cause potential buyers to look elsewhere. This is why outsourcing the task to an experienced mobile fleet pressure washing company is such a smart business decision. A professional can come to your place of business and clean all of your vehicles in record time without damaging your paint or lettering and get your employees back to work in short order.
Sure you could appoint someone to do the work in-house, but that also makes you responsible for the work schedules for that person and any time they spend cleaning is time away from their normal work duties. You will also have to deal with the equipment and cleaners, along with maintenance costs. A wiser move is to keep your staff doing what they are productive at and hire someone who is productive in the cleaning industry do the work and help keep your company cars and trucks on the road and serving customers.
Commercial Store Front & Awning Cleaning Services - Concrete Sidewalk Cleaning

Concrete Sidewalk Cleaning:
Store front cleaning includes the concrete and asphalt sidewalks that are trampled every day. By power washing your sidewalks on a routine basis this helps to eliminate tracking contaminants into your business and makes your store front appeal more to potential customers. We have maintenance plans with affordable prices available to keep your store front looking clean from dirt and debris.
The Benefits Of Quality Awning Cleaning:
Whether your awnings were installed for signage purposes, shade or just to attract attention, you still want them to look good. The first impression your awnings make is very important. Factors as subtle as the cleanliness or basic overall maintenance of a business can greatly influence a consumer's decision as to where they will (or will not) shop. Any hint of exterior shabbiness or neglect can easily result in lost sales. Likewise, a well-kept exterior with attractive, clean awnings can make all the difference to a buyer's psyche . . . because "clean" is more inviting than "dirty" every time.
Extends The Life Of Your Awnings:
Regular cleaning and sealing will significantly extend the life of your awning material, while keeping the awnings looking great the entire time. Cleaning removes the pollution, dirt, bird droppings, mildew and other contaminants that cause the material to weaken and age prematurely. Also, regular application of a sealer with UV protectants helps protect the awnings against breaking down from sun damage.
Manufacturer's Warranty Cleaning Requirements Are Met:
In order to be upheld, most awning manufacturer warranties require some proof of cleaning. Manufacturers know quite well that awning materials deteriorate faster if they are not maintained, and often write their warranties accordingly. A record of cleanings serves as proof that failure (if any) of an awning's fabric was due to fabric defects rather than any lack of maintenance. Our gentle hand-clean process is the recommended method.
A Regular Maintenance Program Is Effective:
Just as you wouldn't drive your car for a year without changing the oil, you shouldn't leave your awnings neglected and un-cleaned for a year's time. Preventative maintenance is vital for the protection of your awnings. If you wait until your awning looks really bad, you may have waited too long. Staining occurs when the usual list of suspects are allowed to remain on the surface of an awning for an extended period of time. Left alone, the chemicals in these contaminants eventually cause the awning fabric to degrade which, as it weakens, becomes more and more prone to burning from the sun. Again, professional cleaning will safely remove these elements from your awnings.
Regular Cleaning Costs Less:
In economical, cost-effectiveness terms, "It is less expensive to maintain than it is to repair . . . " and this holds true for awnings as well. An awning that is cleaned regularly is easier and faster to clean than one that is cleaned infrequently. It requires milder soaps and can be scrubbed more easily. For these reasons, keeping your awnings on a regular cleaning program will save you money on a per cleaning basis. And, as you know, awnings are a huge financial investment . . . one that deserves the protection of regular cleanings.
Professional Service Makes A Difference:
The image your company portrays begins with the exterior of your building, and your awnings are part of that image. Awnings represent a large investment in the appearance of your property. Professional awning cleaning can help you protect that investment.
Left unchecked, the elements quickly take their toll on everything outdoors . . . awnings included. After all, if awnings are designed to attract attention to your business or home, then what kind of first impression do dirty awnings make? Awning cleaning helps protect both your investment and your image..
