Mind the Gap! House Washing at Bridgeman Downs

Today the Get It Clean team was house washing and window cleaning at Bridgeman Downs.

One of the questions we get a lot is – “I have noticed a few gaps on the outside of my house where water could potentially get in. Can you still wash my house?”

Believe it or not, a lot of homes have gaps between panels or windows. These can occur over time as your house expands and contracts (with heat or moisture) … or as soil under the building foundation moves.

The answer is of course – yes! We can still safely wash down your home and prevent water entering your house even if there are a few gaps!

Before washing your house we check the exterior for where water might be able to enter and temporarily seal it using our “magical” easy peel tape. It does a great job of sealing any gap AND comes off easily without damaging the paint on your home.

Fortunately at this Bridgeman Downs house, one of our professionally trained house washers noticed a massive gap the owner wasn’t even aware of between the exterior wall and the sliding door.

We take great care to make sure no water gets inside by meticulously taping up just gaps like this (see image).

And after we had finished washing the house and removed the gap sealing tape, the owner was thrilled saying she “felt the house looked like it had had a paint job!”.

To get your home looking like it’s just had a new paint job in far less time and for far less cost – contact us and give us a call, we’d love to help.
