1. External appeal
Everybody is impressed with a nice clean well-presented home.
After a engaging a professional external house wash your house will sparkle and be the envy of your neighbours. It’s not about size or structure although more about presentation. You may have a huge house although if it is not cleaned regularly people may prefer a cleaner smaller house next door. Very important if you are selling your house. Today is a sellers’ market and your house will sell quickly. Imagine if you spend a small amount to present it in it's best light. Easy, cost effective way to add a few thousand onto your sale price. You wash your car before sale to gain maximum value and your house is no different and the gains are 10 fold.
2. Maintenance to protect your investment
Regular maintenance is a priority for commercial clients. You house is no different.
The businesses have learnt that it is cheaper in the long run to engage professional contractors for yearly external house wash or building cleaning. Longevity of your building or house revolves around reducing invasive mould and other organisms that attack structures. It is very easy to accept slow and subtle deterioration of your investment as people just get used to the changes over time. WOW, what a difference an external building wash can make. As houses age some areas allow water to penetrate through the paint work and allow dangerous (if you are made of wood) organisms to attack the very structure of your house. Professionals generally use safe products that will limit this deterioration and prolong the life of unprotected surfaces. It may be very cheap to have driveways and concrete cleaned while we are at your house as things get cheaper while we are there.
3. Reduce the need to repaint
An external house wash will revitalise your paintwork!
Our systems and products allow for low pressure care of your painted surfaces. Our products eradicate surface mould and over a short time they also help remove any staining from mould and the like. The sun is the biggest factor for the longevity of your paintwork followed closely by the actions of predatory organisms that live on and degrade your surfaces. Large organisations accept this and engage planned maintenance for external building cleaning. They have learnt that it is cheaper for this to be done while improving the wow factor of their buildings, it also extends the time between repaints. If your house is looking not so good, it is time to have it professionally cleaned. This maintains the life of your paintwork and you will be so happy with the result of cleaning brickwork and anything else you would like done.

Clients are really impressed with the researched professional products that Cleanupcrew use during an external clean.

All windows, 2 storeys, decorative, casements and the like, we have the solution to gently clean them and leave them sparkling without the need of a squeegee. So much easier for harder window types and frames. Cleaning windows to a high standard is easy when the correct tools are used.
6. Insect and security screens
During your external house wash we will clean your screens using low pressure. Just a thought as not all professionals have this ability. The result is dustless and disinfected screens. We can also clean the window behind them from the outside without having to remove your windows. That saves you heaps. Clean windows and screens all done externally. We have hundreds of happy clients that will back that up. Do some research to find the external house cleaner that can use low pressure and correct products. Handymen with high pressure are likely to damage your screens.
7. Sliding doors and tracks
The main issue with tracks seems to be deterioration from dirt and stuff that is left in the tracks. After an exterior house clean the tracks are left spotless with those contributing factors gone. This will increase the life of the runners and of the track itself. Using low pressure we apply our product and fully clean the frame, tracks, and windows. This gives you peace of mind that your house will last longer than without cleaning.
8. Reduce allergens
This is important! Many people do not realise that the sniff or sore eyes come from the mould and allergens on your house.
While removing these from the inside of your house is important. Think about that all the air entering your house comes through screens that may be filthy and a harbour for airborne organisms.
It is so important to remove these if you are in any way suspect able to this.
Your quality of life will increase, and your health will increase. People do not seem to think about this.
If your house and screens are dirty, have them professionally cleaned and disinfected by a reasonable cheap service if you hire the people who know what they are doing.
9. Proud of your house.
We love people that are proud of their house and offer many services to keep it looking great. Do some research before hiring your cleaner. While it may be soothing using a small pressure cleaner for your cleaning, this will only fix the problem for a short time. Please ask for a quote from a professional external cleaner to completely eradicate the mould so it will not return anytime soon. These screens are better softwashed to kill the organisms rather just using a cheap pressure cleaner. Problem solved!
