Keep mold and mildew out of your basement

Does your basement have a small leak of water coming in through the wall, or does the basement windows have a small leak where water makes its way out?  Plumbing pipes have a small steady drip of water building up on the floor?  If this goes without the proper care your basement can start to have mildew growing.  Most home owners are not aware of the dangers of mildew and mold in the basement because if your not using it as a living space it goes without notice when it is used for storage.  Once mildew is present it must be cleaned properly and you must follow certain steps to keep it dry so that the mildew is not present again.  When dealing with mildew and mold you need to eliminate the spores.  Using a small amount of bleach mixed with water you can apply this to the areas.  Use caution and also wear a respirator so that you are not breathing in the fumes from the bleach.  The bleach mixed with water will not only eliminate the spores but it will help to remove the stains left over from the mildew and mold.  Here at M&D Power washing we have our own special cleaners that will eliminate the mildew and mold as well as the stains left behind.  We have cleaned many basements by spraying our solution on basement walls, floors and wood beams where the mildew has spread.  We also pressure wash concrete basement floors and remove the excess water.  Give us a call for a free estimate 260-413-3290 or visit our website at http://www.cleantheroof.com/

Removing roof stains and algae

Roof stains and algae that cover shingle roofs, tile roofs, cedar shake roofs and slate can be removed safely.  The black roof stains and algae that you see growing on your roof will break down the material and you the  home owner will have to replace the roof much sooner if not treated.  The stains are from the material in the shingle roof as well as the humidity.  The north side of a home gets less sunlight and with humid climates the algae and mildew will grow and feed off of the limestone filler in your shingles.  With cedar shake roofs and tile as well as slate the growth will still happen with humidity and less sunlight.  Treating the roof and removing the stains are recommended by all roofing manufacturers using the correct procedure and cleaning agents.  Never use a power washer to clean your roof or harsh chemicals.  Here at M&D we have been safely cleaning roofs and homes in Fort Wayne, Indiana and all surrounding counties.  Call or visit our website for more information.

Clogged gutters can cause damage to your home

The inside gutters and downspouts on your home need to be free of debris so they can work properly by keeping water out of your home.  It just isn't an eyesore but when the gutters are full of leaves and debris water cannot flow properly instead it backs up against the roof and runs down the wall of your home.  Water will start to go into your home and leak through the ceilings causing water damage and mold can start to form in the attic from the moisture.  When this happens you have more problems from the mold building up in your home and causing you serious health issues.  Here at M&D Power washing we will clean out your gutters and downspouts and dispose of the debris into trash bags and throw it away.  Something as simple as cleaning out the gutters will save you in the long run.  We also install gutter guards as well just call or visit our site to fill out a free estimate form.

Soft washing is the best way to clean your home

Soft washing versus high pressure is what you as a home owner needs to think about.  Pressure washing and power washing no matter how you say it all leads up to the same way of cleaning, using high pressure with the risk of damage.  With just pressure washing you are using the pressure to blast off dirt and algae off of your home's surface.  Most think this is the best way to clean and the only way but it's not.  The algae stains and mildew stains on the surface of your home will continue to grow back if you don't treat it correctly.  Here at M&D power washing we use cleaners that eliminate the algae and mildew by applying a solution on the surface to attack the spores and then we use very light pressure to rinse off your home.  Our cleaner will also leave your windows sparkling clean because the cleaner softens the water.  We will leave your home not only clean but algae and mildew free.  Now that is clean!
