This Pressure Cleaning article is written for Melbourne owners and managers who need more than a quick blast. Pressure Cleaning jobs in our city require a surface diagnosis before any cleaning starts.
In Melbourne, everything from growth corridor new-build mortar smear to inner-suburb heritage brick has its own cleaning risk profile. The right method, chemistry and pressure keep the surface safe and the result lasting.
Chemistry needs more dwell time
Detergents that work in 5 minutes in summer can take 15 in winter. Plan for it.
Freeze risk on equipment
Drain hoses overnight in cold spells. Cracked O-rings are the #1 winter failure.
Surface prep is harder
Wet surfaces from cold mornings dilute chemistry. Time the application after sun-up.
