Tricky Window Cleaning In Ascot…We Do Whatever It Takes!

/in , /by

There is nothing worse than having as a feature a gorgeous, sparkling pool only to be obscured by fuzzy glass.

The design of this beautiful 2 storey home with the pool right up alongside it really makes for innovative window cleaning methods.  Just quietly, on this hot summer day our boys were actually quite happy to take a bit of a dip and carry out their professional window cleaning at the same time!

When glass is this close to the pool –  whether it is pool fencing or the house itself,  it makes a huge difference if the glass cleaning is maintained because this will largely avoid ugly hard water stains appearing over time.  This then becomes a major problem and requires polishing to remove, not to mention the expense.

At Get It Clean we love a challenge and we enjoy exceeding our customers expectations… so you are delighted with the result. Call us now for a quote on 0404 802 530  and we can talk you through the maintenance options to keep your property looking its sparkling best!

Aluminium Awning Washing at Wooloowin – This One Is In Serious Need!

/in , /by

This aluminium awning is designed to conceal a roof top air conditioning unit, which it does well.  But with neglect mould, mildew and environmental dirt build up and it becomes a showcase for grime!

Regular cleaning is not only recommended, it is essential to keep your shutters from looking dingy. The good news is that shutters are relatively easy to maintain whether they are functional or decorative or both and the Get It Clean team have a simple process to keep them in tip top shape.

Not only will you extend the life of your shutters/awnings you will keep them looking their best, improving the appearance of your property.

At this building, as the shutters are on the roof top, it is necessary for our professional cleaners to be harnessed to a secure fixing point to adhere to safety regulations.

Often outdoor awnings can be pressure washed but sometimes depending on the type it may be necessary to scrub them using a specialised solution.

For a free consultation on your building washing or awning washing needs please give us a call on 0404 802 530 today!

Bat Dung Building Washing

Operation Bat Dung! Building Washing in Hamilton

/in , /by

Have you noticed piles of faecal material (like the one in the photo) around your building or home? If so then you probably have bats! You will notice also that the faeces may have a shiny speckled appearance (from all the insect wings) and will crumble like dust when touched.

Guano is another term used for bat droppings.  Bat guano carries fungal spores that cause Histoplasmosis which can be fatal to humans. Histoplasmosis is contracted as a result of inhaling faecal dust matter from the droppings.  Bat guano must be handled similarly to asbestos since the threat of disease is high. Our professional building cleaners at Get It Clean have a very specific plan of action when it comes to removing the guano.

  1. Use appropriate PPE (Personal Protective Equipment), including a HEPA filter mask.
  2. Wet down the affected area with a specially made microban germicidal cleaner concentrate and allow it to break down the guano.
  3. Our building washing team will wash away all the matter and thoroughly rinse all affected surfaces to restore your building to a bat guano free building!

Buildings where bats have resided in or around for years can suffer incredible damage from guano and urine left behind.  The key to minimal damage is regular cleaning and maintenance. Get It Clean, Brisbane’s premier house washing and commercial building washing company, is happy to advise you if you have a problem like this or provide you with a quotation to have it removed.

Window Cleaning Hard Water Stains @ Newstead – What Are The Options?

/in , /by

Do you know what hard water stains are? They’re fair dinkum water stains!

Water stains can appear on any glass where there is a regular stream of water touching the glass or flowing over it. This occurs when the minerals in water slowly deposit themselves on the glass over time and build up to leave stains just like in this picture. Not only does it look unsightly but the longer you leave it the bigger the job it becomes to get rid of it. Normal window washing by professional windows cleaners using an applicator and squeegee will not solve this problem.

So how can these marks be cleaned away?

You basically have two options:

1. Buy a do it yourself product. There are several well-known brands. You apply the paste to the glass. The glass then needs to be polished. This process can be very time consuming and often the results are disappointing.

2.The second option is to contact professional water stain removers. We have recommended the Water Stain Doctor before with good results.

One last caution: glass polishing can be expensive so get a few quotes.

So if you see any signs of a water stain developing on your building it is best to get a professional cleaner onto it straight away, and regular maintenance can help you avoid the problem altogether.

For more advice on those difficult cleaning problems give us a call. Get it Clean has the experience to solve all your cleaning dilemmas.
