When we handle exterior mold & mildew removal for concrete in Guymon, OK, it comes down to three things: protecting your plants and property, cleaning with the right method, and walking the job with you at the end. On concrete, the method we use is pressure wash with a surface cleaner.
Method and pressure
Cleaning solution: A degreaser for oil spots and a pre-treatment for organic growth; post-treatment slows regrowth.
What to know about cleaning concrete
Plain broom-finish concrete is the surface pressure washing is made for. A rotary surface cleaner gives an even finish without the stripes a wand leaves, and hot water helps with grease and oil.
Avoid: Holding a narrow tip close to the surface, which etches lines into the cream layer of the concrete.
How often: Every year, or every 6 months in shaded, damp spots.

Exterior Mold & Mildew Removal for Concrete in Guymon, OK
Humid summers in Oklahoma grow green algae and black mildew on the shaded sides of homes, especially on vinyl and painted wood. A soft wash kills the growth rather than just knocking it off, so the siding stays clean longer.
Red clay soil is common in parts of Oklahoma. Rain splashes it onto the bottom of the siding, walls and walkways, and its iron-rich color can stain light surfaces. It usually needs a dedicated clay or rust cleaner rather than pressure alone.

We pre-wet plants and lawns, keep cleaning solutions diluted to what the surface needs, and rinse landscaping again when we finish. Keep pets and children inside until surfaces are rinsed and dry.
