Commercial Pressure Washing for Smithfield Homes
Mildew is the main exterior problem in Smithfield, and the Pagan River is a big reason why. The steady humidity feeds green and black growth on brick, on shaded sidewalks and along the base of exterior walls, and it tends to show first on the older downtown buildings a short walk from the waterfront. Those walls are often well over a century old, with soft brick and mortar that high pressure can erode quickly. That is why most brick work here is soft washing: a cleaning solution that breaks down the growth, time to let it work, then a low-pressure rinse that carries it away without carving into the masonry.
Concrete at the shopping centers on Route 10 calls for a different approach. Those sidewalks, entries and walkways can take a rotary surface cleaner, which leaves an even finish without stripes. Spring pollen from pines and oaks coats storefront glass, doors and awnings in a yellow film that a gentle wash and rinse clears easily. Behind downtown restaurants, shared rear entries and dumpster areas collect grease and food waste, so we scrape, degrease and wash those pads. After nor'easters and heavy hurricane-season rain, mud and debris on walkways are worth clearing before they dry into the concrete and stain it.
Most exterior washing is scheduled early in the morning, in the evening or on a day you are closed, so customers are not walking through spray. Downtown, street parking and narrow alleys affect where equipment and hoses can go, so we confirm water access and setup space during the site visit. Doors, windows, signage and plantings are protected, and wash water is kept away from storm drains as much as the site allows. Sidewalks and dumpster pads can go on a seasonal schedule tied to our Smithfield route. Our locally owned and operated team will look at your site with you and recommend a plan that fits it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you clean the old brick on our Main Street storefront without damaging it?
Yes, with soft washing rather than high pressure. Older brick and mortar can be eroded by a strong stream, so we apply a cleaning solution suited to masonry, let it break down the mildew and dirt, and rinse at low pressure. We test a small area first. If mortar is already crumbling or brick faces are flaking, we point that out, since repair work should come before washing or instead of it.
Our building is close to the Pagan River. Do you handle wash water differently?
We take extra care. We avoid sending detergent or debris toward storm drains, use cleaning products only at the strength the job needs and collect solid debris from dumpster pads before washing. Rules about wash water near waterways may apply depending on the site, so we talk through drainage during the visit and adjust the method, such as hand cleaning a section, if runoff would head somewhere it should not.
How often should a business pressure wash its sidewalks and entries?
It depends on foot traffic and what your business does. Restaurants and busy retail entries often benefit from monthly or every-other-month washing, while an office building might only need it seasonally. Dumpster pads usually need the most frequent attention because grease and food waste build up quickly. We can look at your site and suggest a schedule based on how fast it gets dirty in our humid coastal climate.
Can you clean drive-thru lanes and oil stains?
Yes. Drive-thru lanes collect oil, grease and tire marks where cars idle. We pretreat stains with a degreaser, let it work, then clean the lane with a surface cleaner and hot or cold water depending on the stain. Fresh oil spots usually lighten a lot or come out completely. Older stains that have soaked deep into the concrete may only lighten, and we tell you that up front.
