Wet look travertine pool deck and house soft wash in Naples FL
BIC Cleaning And Coatings was contacted by a homeowner who was referred to us by a friend in Lakewood Ranch. The project called for cleaning and sealing a travertine pool deck, plus a softwash of the house exterior. The customer supplied a solvent based sealer that they wanted applied to the deck.
On arrival our crew started with the deck. We used a mildewcide cleaner to kill mold and mildew and to break down embedded dirt. After allowing the cleaner to work, we pressure washed the surface with a large surface cleaner to remove the residue and provide a clean, consistent surface for the sealer.
While the deck was drying we moved on to the house. The exterior had mold on many of the vinyl windows and fascia, and dirt and debris on the walls. We softwashed the home to safely remove the mold and grime without damaging the siding or trim. Softwashing is effective for mold removal on vinyl surfaces and helps restore the appearance of the exterior without high pressure that can force water into sensitive areas.
Once the deck was fully dry we returned to apply the sealer. The product used was AGG SEAL FORMULA 888, a solvent based product provided by the customer. We applied a heavy coat using a combination of brush and roller to ensure even coverage, paying attention to grout lines and edges to create a uniform protective layer.
This approach, cleaning first and then sealing, helps protect the travertine from staining and wear while improving the overall look of the pool deck. The AGG SEAL FORMULA 888 will provide a protective, low-maintenance finish for years to come when applied to a properly cleaned and dried surface.
BIC Cleaning And Coatings takes care to follow each step in the right order: cleaning with a mildewcide, pressure washing to remove contaminants, softwashing the home exterior, and applying the customer-provided sealer with proper tools. That workflow helps ensure the best possible adhesion and a lasting finish for travertine surfaces.
The homeowner was pleased to have a clean pool area and a refreshed exterior. If you have travertine that needs cleaning and sealing or need a softwash for your home in Naples, Florida, BIC Cleaning And Coatings can assess the surfaces, recommend the right cleaning method, and apply the sealer you choose with professional results.
