It’s time to think about getting your property ready for autumn, if you haven't already. One of the best ways to prep? A good exterior cleaning. Here’s why it’s so important to give your property's outside a little TLC before the windy and colder weather takes over.
1. Keep Moss, Algae, and Mould in Check
During autumn, surfaces like patios, driveways, and even your walls can become perfect spots for moss, algae, and mould to proliferate. Not only do these make your exteriors look unkempt, but they can also turn your walkways into slippery hazards. A thorough cleaning now will help clear away anything these pests can latch onto, so your property stays safer, cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing.
2. Protect Your Property's Structure
Dirt and debris left on your property’s exterior can lead to serious issues when mixed with autumn’s moisture. For example, clogged gutters can cause water to overflow, which can damage your roof, walls, and foundation. Grime on your siding can trap moisture, leading to rot. A professional pre-emptive clean-up now helps prevent all that and keeps your home in great shape through the autumn months.
3. Boost Your Curb Appeal
Let’s face it—your property's appearance reflects on you. Cleaning your exterior now will make your home or business look fresh and inviting. Whether you’re trying to sell, rent, contribute to the appearance of your neighbourhood, a clean exterior is key to making a great impression, especially when you put your decorations up for Halloween and/or Christmas and all eyes are on your property.
4. Avoid Expensive Repairs Later
Skipping out on professional cleaning can lead to problems that cost a lot to fix. For example, water that pools in clogged gutters or on dirty surfaces can cause leaks, cracks, and foundation damage. By investing in a professional clean now, you can dodge those expensive repairs later down the road.
5. Get Ready for Winter Too
After autumn comes winter and any issues you leave unresolved can get even worse when temperatures drop. Water trapped in cracks or under moss can freeze and expand, causing even more damage. By sorting your gutters, roofs and paths you’re also setting your property up to handle the winter months without any extra costs, hassle or drain on your time.
