Goal For The Green

“Going Green” is one of the most important interests of the public today.  Preserving the ecology, protecting the environment, and taking care of the planet are activities that have gained interest. The development of “safe” substances and the recycling of other products have gained popularity. As our country grows and more and more construction becomes necessary, our government has strengthened regulations regarding construction materials. Therefore, construction contractors must be ever vigilant to locate new and better materials.

Health problems related to the use of lead-based paint have prompted the development of water-based paints that have shown no apparent danger.  Imported drywall that emitted sulfur gas into homes was outlaws, removed, and replaced with safer, domestic drywall.  Asbestos which seemed an excellent idea at its conception, proved to be dangerous to those who worked with it and those who lived in structures containing the product.

Alternative solutions currently being used for insulation are blown-in substances such as recycled newspaper or Eco Spray Foam polyurethane, and rolled-in products such as fiberglass.  These materials are currently being used with the hope that no harmful effects will result. The production and use of materials that are not harmful to the environment or the people will help to sustain our planet and preserve its beauty for future generations.

Conventional wisdom would have us all believe that pressure washing is one of the most efficient cleaning methods for any kind of surface. By literally blasting away dirt and grime, pressure washing should be able to leave your decks, patios and exterior walls looking spotless and good as new. That’s what many people believe anyway, but the truth is that while pressure cleaning can be effective, many situations call for a little bit more.

Pressure cleaning may be able to get rid of the dirt on a solid surface, but it may also leave deeply embedded dirt untouched. At first, most of the dirt and grime that gets embedded into patios and decks may be unnoticeable, but it will build up in time, and if you go years without a thorough cleaning it will look like almost nothing will get rid of it. Fortunately, there are solutions available from Renew Crew. Renew Crew combines pressure washing with its own exclusive solvents that can penetrate deep into the pores of a surface. These solvents loosen embedded dirt that can then be removed with pressure washing.

An Environmentally-Friendly Solution

Those who are worried about the potentially harmful chemicals found in many deep cleaning solvents need not worry when they hire Renew Crew to clean their surfaces. Renew Crew’s solvents utilize environmentally-friendly enzymes that can kill mold and mildew without killing your plants, bleaching your wood or endangering your family or pets. Our solvents also contain special polymers that can seal your surfaces and protect them against the elements. This will extend the life of your concrete patio or wooden deck so that it can be enjoyed by you and your family for years.

Most commercial pressure washing services cannot provide the kind of thorough and superior concrete cleaning and deck sealing that you will get from Renew Crew. Our exclusive solvents and sealants aren’t available in any store, but a simple pressure washing appointment will give you access to products that were developed and refined specifically for Renew Crew.
