Pressure washing is a tool in many cleaners’ toolboxes, but the equipment, training, and specialization needed when it comes to industrial pressure washing means that when the circumstances come to need industrial pressure washing, you want to make sure you’ve got the best contractor for the job. The unique needs of an industrial site, from the requirements of high uptime to the presence of hazardous waste, means you must choose wisely when it comes to your industrial cleaners.
Regular Industrial Cleaning and Maintenance
Industrial sites get dirty, and they need to be cleaned in a way that minimizes downtime and optimizes industrial maintenance. Pressure washing, in this context, works best as part of a regular and thorough industrial cleaning and maintenance program. The pressure washing itself may not occur during all cleaning and maintenance, but it can be optimized to be used at the best point, especially if it includes the cleaning of exterior equipment and property that need to otherwise be in use.
Pressure Washing Before Selling a Property
Cleaning is easy to put off but becomes an essential one if you’re suddenly showing off the property to buyers, investors, or partners as part of a merger or partnership. This includes not just building exteriors and interiors but also any assets you’ll want to show off, from industrial machinery to vehicles, sometimes dealing with years of buildup from both mundane and hazardous sources. This is often paired with additional industrial cleaning and maintenance.
After an Industrial Disaster or Accident
Pressure washing and other cleanup measures might be part of a larger effort after an industrial fire, explosion, or other accident that leaves surfaces contaminated.
- Cleaning of Fire or Explosion Damage: Industrial disasters are rare but have far-reaching consequences. Smoke, soot, and other residues caused by industrial fires and explosions need to be removed before the site can be returned to use.
- Cleaning Property Before Disposal: Debris and property may need to be cleaned before they can be disposed of, especially to avoid more costly disposal options.
- Worker Safety: Once a site has been inspected after an incident, the location will need to be cleaned for workers to safely operate there.
Make sure such cleaning is part of your disaster recovery plan to get contractors in place as quickly as possible.
Pressure Washing of Hazardous Waste
If you work with hazardous wastes or are dealing with the aftermath of a hazardous chemical or oil spill, not all pressure washing contractors may be able to deal with your hazardous waste. You’ll need to work with hazardous waste experts who follow local and federal guidelines on hazardous waste cleanup to avoid issues like water contamination or the need for property remediation. Thankfully, NEDT provides hazardous waste cleanup, transportation, and disposal in addition to our industrial cleaning services.
So, if you need pressure washing for your industrial property, it pays to work with experts who have the tools, skills, and certifications to deal with other industrial cleaning and maintenance tasks as well as dealing properly with any hazardous waste found or generated in the process. You need NEDT. We’ll use our 25+ years of project experience to collaborate with you to develop work plans that suit your timetable and budget. Contact us today to learn more and get started.
