Our Process

Step 1: Site Plan

Before any power washing even begins, our team will identify any known or visible hazards.  Our crews will do a physical inspection of the property identifying

• storm drain entry points

• possible sanitary sewer drains

• local landscape conditions

• water collection points

• water flow characteristics

Step 2: Containment

Once our power washing begins, the dirty wash water must be contained and redistributed either outside or to specified interior floor drains.  Our team uses several tools for this process including:

• vacuum surface cleaners

• industrial grade shop vac

• sand bags

• floor squeegy

• brooms

Step 3: Collection

Our team has highly specialized vacuums and water pumps to recover our dirty wash water.  Some of our vacuums are highly customized "auto discharge vacuums".
Depending on the specific job conditions, we may collect the water immediately after it is power washed at the source while on other projects it may make more sense to funnel the water to a internal drain in the building.

 

Which method we utilize will be strategically selected based on the amount of waste water that our power washing generates and the toxicity of the water.
