Q. Should canvas AWNINGS be pressure washed? You have probably heard disaster stories where pressure washing contractors have ruined various surfaces, materials or structures .Possibly your canvas AWNINGS have suffered under a severe high pressured water blasting.
This is usually down to inexperienced or careless contractors using the wrong equipment or technique, or untrained staff doing a rush job to achieve merely satisfactory standards. Possibly due to a contractor going cheap on his quote to get the job . CHEAP is not a good option . DO YOUR RESEARCH before hiring a cleaning contractor- recommendations are always a safe bet.
When necessary we can skillfully and carefully pressure wash canvas awnings . A pressure washer is a vital piece of kit when deep cleaning a canvas awning or canopy. It is almost impossible to achieve the desired results without one. At PureGem we are passionate about getting great results and reviews from our customers. We know how much your AWNINGS can cost to be fitted and we know how to carefully clean them without causing damage.
By using our speciallised low flow pressure washing equipment , we can gently but firmly remove years of grime,dirt and organic growth. We understand the integrity of the tight fabric weave of the material fibres and the importance of the stitching to the shape and hold of the canvas awning.
But we do not simply pressure wash the canvas from cold. We pre-treat the canvas with a commercial grade disenfectant. This kills off the organic life residing in the fabric. It is much easier to wash away a dead substance that has no grip on a surface than a biofilm of microorganisms clinging on for dear life! This means the AWNINGS gets a lighter wash but still the same results.
