CLIFTON PARK — When it comes to home upkeep, many homeowners don’t realize that siding, deck and concrete maintenance should be done on a regular schedule to prevent permanent damage.
“This time of year is when everyone is beginning to take a look at their house, deck and patio and noticing that they need a cleaning. We’re really excited about this upcoming spring season,” said Don Sweet, owner of Service Solutions, a home care company based in Clifton Park.
The elements are hard on home sidings and decks, explained Sweet. Vinyl siding can collect grit and mold, the grooves in stamped concrete harbor dirt and grime from repeated foot traffic, rain takes a toll on wooden decking, and composite decking is known as a “mildew magnet.”
Service Solutions has been solving these problems for 29 years. The company specializes in cleaning siding, walkways and decks of all kinds throughout the four-county Capital District, and it doesn’t just blast the surfaces with a pressure washer either.
“When it comes to the way we do things, what makes us different is we don’t think of ourselves as a ‘pressure washing’ business. We’re not trying to clean with pressure,” explained Don Sweet.
Sweet said he and his staff focus on “non-destructive” processes, such as using gentle cleaning agents and hand scrubbing, to get the best results. There’s still a pressure washer involved, but it’s just one tool in the arsenal.
The company provides its customers with free price quotes and will spot test an area at no charge. Sweet said he also makes it a point to work closely with homeowners so they can get the best cleaning value for their budget, and he’s always wiling to go the extra mile in the name of customer service.
