Frequently Asked Questions
How long does concrete cleaning take?
Most residential driveways and walkways can be thoroughly cleaned in 2-4 hours, depending on size and condition. Heavily stained surfaces or those requiring specialized stain removal may take longer. We'll provide a specific time estimate during your free consultation.
How often should concrete surfaces be professionally cleaned?
In Ketchikan's wet climate, we recommend professional concrete cleaning every 1-2 years to prevent permanent staining and biological growth. Surfaces with heavy use or under trees may benefit from annual cleaning. Sealed surfaces typically require less frequent maintenance.
Is your concrete cleaning process safe for the environment?
Absolutely. We use environmentally responsible cleaning solutions and proper wastewater management practices that comply with local regulations. Our team is trained to protect surrounding landscaping, and we use containment methods when necessary to prevent runoff into sensitive areas.
