Flat Roof Cleaning Aberdeen

When you want your Flat Roof Cleaning in Aberdeen, because of swathes of foul smelling organic matter taking up residence which has also become slippery and a health hazard. It is time to arrange for a professional clean up and sanitising service.

The safest way to clean flat roofs in Aberdeen is to call your local SoftWash Certified Applicator. They will have been trained in all types of exterior surface cleaning including flat roofs. It is important to remember that organic matter which has been laying on flat roofs is often toxic. It can contribute to sick building syndrome which is blamed for absenteeism in the work place. Employees inside buildings suffering from coughs, colds and sore throats are often affected by microscopic spores of moulds and other organic matter infestations.

Cleaning and Treating Aberdeen

Cleaning and treating a flat roof should never be attempted by a pressure washer. The reasons are that too much pressure can cause damage to the flat roof membrane during cleaning. Also a pressure washer atomises water which hits the organic matter on your flat roof causing it to spray up and into air ducts which are designed to bring fresh air into the building. These vents are often found on top of the building near to the roof.

Safe Low Pressure Roof Cleaning Aberdeen

SoftWashing (or Low Pressure Roof Cleaning) actually uses a safe low pressure soft wash mixture which uses a special nozzle on the soft wash wand. The nozzle prevents atomising and the mixture is applied to the organic matter on the flat roof and sanitises it clean, without causing any mists to fly up into the air. Not only will it treat and kill the bacteria, the clean will also last 4-6 times longer than pressure washing.

Save money on roof cleaning in Aberdeen

When properly treated and left clean, the flat roof of your building in Aberdeen will save you money on your electricity consumption. Just like it did to this building cleaning project in Hornchurch. Before cleaning, the dark organic matter on your EPDM flat roof actually absorbed more heat from the sun, in turn your air conditioning units were working harder to keep the building cooler. When the roof is cleaned free from ancient cyanobacteria’s, lichens and mosses it is much lighter in colour, reflecting more of our Suns heat.

The organic matter left on flats roofs cause danger through being slippery to maintenance crews who need to go up onto the roof to carry out checks on air conditioning units etc. According to health and safety all walkways should be kept free from slips and trips throughout the building and surrounding areas which includes roofs. Look for Companies who clean building’s facades.

Often in busy data centres where security is often very high, allowing only a few visitors, busy flat roof areas are often left untreated far too long. There are usually lots of air con units and generators which are maintained frequently. The maintenance crews are at risk from accidents through slippery surfaces.
