TruShine removes the grease, grime, and organic growth that build up on commercial hardscape in Decatur, GA, on a one-time or recurring schedule.
Decatur's downtown is built for walking, so the sidewalks, entries, and patios in front of each business carry heavy foot traffic and outdoor dining spills. Brick and older masonry show up often on the square and nearby blocks, and those surfaces need lower pressure and more care than poured concrete to avoid damaging mortar joints.
Heavy pollen season coats every flat surface outside. Washing once it passes keeps entries and patios from looking dingy into summer. Wet weather keeps north-facing walls and shaded concrete damp, and organic growth follows. It looks bad and can be slippery underfoot.
Along with Decatur, we serve Avondale Estates, Tucker, Stone Mountain, and Atlanta. One call can cover every location you run in metro Atlanta.
OSHA's walking-working surfaces rules call for walking areas to be kept clean and free of hazards. Grease, algae, and mildew on concrete are classic slip hazards for staff carrying trash or deliveries, and for customers walking in the front door.
If your restaurant has a drive-thru, the lane itself collects oil from idling cars plus dropped food and drinks. Combined with grease tracked from the kitchen, it can turn dark and slick fast. Scheduled washing keeps the lane presentable for every car in line.
We look at your Decatur property, note surface types and stains, and confirm where wash water can be contained.
Surfaces, frequency, and timing are spelled out before the first wash.
We clean each surface with the right method and keep runoff contained.
We confirm every surface during the assessment, so nothing is assumed. These are the most common areas we clean.
Curbs and walkways around the building
Kitchen floors and rubber floor mats degreased
Mildew and algae removal from shaded surfaces
Dumpster pads, corrals, and enclosures cleaned
Wash water contained and recovered on site
Back-door concrete where grease is tracked out
Some Decatur properties need a one-time cleanup to remove years of buildup, and then a lighter recurring plan to hold it. Others only need a seasonal wash after pollen season or before a busy stretch. We will tell you which makes sense.
Under the federal Clean Water Act, cities operate stormwater programs that generally prohibit washing grease, detergent, and debris into storm drains, which often flow untreated to local creeks and rivers. In Decatur, we plan each job so wash water is contained and recovered rather than left to run into the street.
Concrete, brick, pavers, stucco, metal, and glass all react differently to cleaning. We look at what your Decatur property is made of before choosing equipment and settings, which protects the surface and gives a more even result.
We contain and recover wash water so grease and detergent are not sent into the storm drain, consistent with how local stormwater rules generally treat that runoff.
Not when it is done correctly. Delicate surfaces get lower pressure and suitable cleaning agents. We match the method to the material.
Yes. We also cover Avondale Estates, Tucker, and other parts of metro Atlanta, and multiple locations can share one plan.
Yes. Most Decatur work is scheduled when the property is closed or quiet, so customers and staff are not disrupted.
