Mike I notice you use a cimex on exterior paving. Do you find this works ok on moss? Also you mention you use a mildly acidic cleaning solution, what do you use? or do you use a variety of different solutions depending on the situation. I have only ever softwashed or pressure washed exterior paving and block paving. Apologies for all the questions just found the info on your website interesting.

One from me too, how much does a cimetidine machine cost?

Robin, moss on a flat surface i think it would remove, I don’t think it would remove the moss in the grooves of a set drive the brushes don’t project deep enough, they would skim across the surface
As for cleaning solution I’ve tried all sorts and most work, I think its the agitation that does the cleaning but this is only on natural stone which to be honest is an easy clean.
The Cimex is really for Indian stone which has ‘brushed-in’ pointing which can be quite fragile.
I wouldn’t buy a Cimex for the sole purpose of exterior cleaning but if you have one already it’s a useful thing to use
Rich do you mean Cimex or have a spelling mistake on my site? They cost about £3k new

Yeah, predictive text again.. .

, and do you discuss with them the options of softwashing vs. jet washing ?
many thanks

I don’t mention the actual chemical I will use, just the same as if I was going to clean a carpet, I discuss the method but I don’t go into detail about the chemistry they are not interested they just want to know it will look good.
Basically I survey the job and tell them the method that will give the best result, I don’t really give them a choice unless the have special circumstances that limit how I do it

Keeping your workplace clean and productive is crucial to the daily operation of any industrial site. Factory floors and warehouses need to work like a well-oiled machine come rain or shine.
