Your partner for Facade Cleaning
Utilica FM Facility management Facade cleaning is a professional facility management, aimed at maintaining the exterior weatherproof envelope of a building to ensure both aesthetic appeal and structural longevity. Regular exterior maintenance removes pollutants, grime, moss, and algae that can cause long-term damage, corrosion, or material degradation, ultimately protecting property value and safety
Key Facade Cleaning Methods
- Water-Based/Pressure Washing: Utilizes high-pressure water jets to remove dirt and grime, suitable for stone, masonry, and concrete, usually managed under 160°F to prevent damage.
- Soft Washing: A gentler, low-pressure method using specialized biodegradable detergents to remove algae and mold without harming delicate surfaces like painted walls or glass.
- Chemical Cleaning: Employs specific acidic or alkaline solutions to dissolve stubborn stains, traffic films, or metal oxidation.
- Rope Access/Spider Cleaning: Specialized, certified technicians use ropes, harnesses, and cradles to access high-rise building exteriors efficiently.
- Water-fed Poles: Telescopic poles used from the ground, frequently applied for window cleaning up to 20 meters, offering a cost-efficient solution
UtilicaFM Facility Management Practices
Material-Specific Care:
The method must match the material, such as using non-abrasive tools for glass and protective, non-reactive cleaners for Aluminum Composite Panels (ACP).
Safety Compliance:
High-rise cleaning requires IRATA-certified technicians, PPE, risk assessments, and adherence to safety regulations to prevent accidents.
Regular Inspection:
Cleaning serves as an opportunity to inspect for structural flaws, cracks, or water leakage, preventing costly, emergency repairs.
Frequency:
Commercial buildings typically require cleaning every 6–12 months, while residential properties often need it every 12–18 months, depending on pollution
