The appearance of the outside of your business is one of the most significant factors that shape your potential customers' first impressions about how you run your business.

When you own a Company, it is important that you keep your place of business looking great and in top shape. The appearance you present to your customers when they arrive at your store will set the pace for what they should expect to see once they’re inside. From those first impressions come judgments about the level of service and the overall satisfaction they will receive by doing business with your company. A clean, well-maintained property projects the image of well-maintained business that is operated with pride and care.
That is why pressure washing commercial buildings and especially store fronts, awnings and parking lots has become routine maintenance for almost every major retail store.
Don’t let your competitors get the upper hand because shoppers think the environment their store presents is cleaner and looks more appealing than yours. Show them that your company cares about the way it looks by having A CleanSlate wash away the dirt, grime, gum and other unsightly build-up from your property. Doing this will help ensure shoppers feel welcome from the time they pull into the parking lot until the time they check out.
Looking professional and providing customers with an enjoyable purchasing experience is just a few of the reasons you need to keep your building and surrounding areas clean. Another good reason to reduce repair costs of repainting. By keeping the exterior of your store clean, you won’t have to paint or re-stucco as often since the harmful elements like dirt, dust and other debris are removed before damage occurs. Saving you money while keeping your business looking it best is A CleanSlate’s goal. You will also find that pressure washing regularly will cost less than when you put too much time in between cleanings due to the work being less demanding thus reducing A CleanSlate’s time on the job.

Water Recovery Methods
Vacuum pumps - Positive-displacement Roots-blower type vacuum pumps are a giant step up in power and capacity and, are advantageous in that they have the additional power to screen and filter the recovered water as it is picked up, thus reducing the need for additional equipment. The higher power also permits multiples of 50 ft hose lengths to the water recovery site.
Engine-driven versions are also independent of possibly limited power supplies required by electrically powered systems. Typical units feature a 5 to 7.5 hp engine driving the blower and are rated at a minimum of 12” mercury suction at 200 cfm air-water flow. Larger capacity 25 and 31 hp units are used by A CleanSlate. Units complete with vacuum berm, screen and filter tank with automatic pump-out, hoses, etc, rated at waste-water recoveries up to 40 gpm, are most appropriate for professional cleaning contractors.
Vacuum berms - These are flexible dams of around 4-6 inches height, which can be arranged to intercept ground water resulting from washing operations. Hooked to a vacuum system, they employ rows of holes at the ground surface to suck up the water which has been corralled by the berm.
The best designs trap and collect every bit of the water flowing against the berm; a dry surface on the lee side of the berm is common. Available in various lengths, these devices are inexpensive, very effective and the most practical method for the professional cleaner.
Portable dams - These are 5-6 inch diameter soft plastic tubes of various lengths (typically 4-5 ft.) which are then filled with a heavy substance, either sand, a mixture of sand and styrofoam pellets, or water, and arranged to block, corral, or deflect running waste water into collection areas.
The weight and flexibility of these plastic tubes form a tight seal against the ground surface, thus controlling runoff. These tools are inexpensive, indispensable and two or more should be on every contractor’s work truck.
Drain covers - These are plastic sheeting arrangements designed to cover storm-drain openings as a precaution against failure of other waste-water collection devices.
Several versions are available. For horizontal openings, a small version of the “wash-mat” can be filled with water; the weight thus seals off the area surrounding the storm-sewer grate. A version containing magnetic material can be used where steel grating is present.
Vacuuming Flat Surface Cleaners - “Closed Loop Cleaning System is a revolution in environmental compliance and time saving technology. With our new “CLC” systems, pressure wash cleaning and wash water reclamation are done simultaneously.
