 A typical stained driveway in the Tampa Bay area. What do you see when you look at your driveway? Is it caked with dirt, mildew and algae? Maybe you have oil, A/C and other chemical stains resulting from years of use and neglect. Even your spilled coffee didn’t fully wash off when it rained. Did you know that these stains eat their way into the concrete and are often hard or impossible to remove? And they are not just ugly: Whether you have a regular concrete surface, stamped concrete or pavers, some aggressive liquids can even cause etching of your concrete which calls for a different approach than stain removal.  Some of our customers asked us about the disinfectant solution that we use, to get outdoor spaces like patios, pool screens and walls germ-free and if those disinfectants pose a hazard to plants around their home.
 Throughout the ages, clay tile roofs have been a popular and durable way to protect building structures. The popularity of terracotta tiles as a roofing material has waxed and waned over the centuries, but one thing is for certain, these roofs are popular in Clearwater, Florida. Why is that so?
 When holidays come around, you want every part of your home to look great, whether it's inside or outside. Taking care of exterior maintenance in Clearwater is easy at any time of the year because it never gets too cold.
 Metal roof before pressure washing Metal roofs are popular in the Clearwater area for both homes and businesses because of their ability to withstand the high winds of tropical storms and hurricanes. The average lifespan of a metal roof is slightly longer than for asphalt.
 Residential and commercial roofs in the Clearwater area can sure take a beating during the course of a typical year. High humidity levels and salt spray, if you are near the ocean, do their work daily, while the occasional tropical storm pounds dirt and debris and make a dingy roof look even worse. Soon, moss, algae or lichen can begin to take hold and slowly damage your roof, shortening its life.
 Some older homes and commercial buildings in the Clearwater area can have roofs or cement siding that contain asbestos. Asbestos was commonly used as a component in many different building components between 1930 and 1950. Older building materials that contain asbestos can also include base flashing, cement wallboard, asphalt and vinyl floor tile and vinyl sheet flooring.
 When it comes to cleaning your roof, you have two options: do the job yourself with rented equipment or hire a qualified professional to do the work for you. Because of the hassle of climbing up on a ladder and the danger involved in doing so, many homeowners opt to have a contractor do the job instead. At the same time, however, some may put off the job, thinking that the cost will be prohibitive.
Cleaning your roof is much less expensive than you think, especially when the method used is power- or softwashing.  Tile roofs are common in the Clearwater-Tampa Bay area. After all, they are the perfect accompaniment to the Spanish architecture that our regional favors for construction. A well-constructed terracotta tile roof can last 100 years and even longer with the proper care. Not only are tile roofing materials durable, but they are also fire resistant.
 In a climate like here in Clearwater, the exteriors of buildings take big beatings. Sun, heat, humidity, winds and tropical storm all combine to batter your home or business. One of the exterior areas that takes the hardest beating is your roof. Because the roof is up high, we often don't think about it until it becomes discolored or otherwise show massive amounts of accumulated dirt and debris.
 Example of a partly softwashed roof Are you not afraid of heights? Then cleaning your own roof might be the right job for you :-) There are two options: Pressurewashing or Softwashing. I have chosen two short videos that explain the process and its risks i.e. advantages. Both examples show an asphalt shingle roof being cleaned but the same is true for almost any other type of roof. So, if you are considering cleaning your roof yourself, I recommend watching these two videos:   We received this happy note of our customer Dave from Tampa, which I´d like to share with you:   The past weeks we were busy softwashing roofs around the Tampa Bay area, like the one above from Jimmy in Tampa. It doesn't matter what type of roof you have, a gentle soft-wash is always doing the work nicely.
Below you see the barrel tile roof of David's home in Clearwater:   Tony called us to handle his tiled roof. When we arrived, his roof tiles definitely looked a lot darker then his neighbors (on the left). But wait what happened next. His neighbor must have become jealous ... ;-) See the complete transformation:  On top of Amalie Arena, Tampa Softwashing is a gentle cleaning process that we usually apply on all roofs.
The tiles - or in this case a huge membrane roof - are sprayed with a special cleaning solution. After leaving it to act upon the surface, any dirt, algae or midlew will detach and can be removed by a thorough rinse (applying only soft pressure), leaving the roof sparkling clean. As you can see here, the the job at hand was massive and it took several days to get the whole roof clean.  This is Tommy's home.
We went to clean his roof in Safety Harbor the other day. It wasn’t looking too appealing as you can see above but I think, there is a nice difference after we were done (in the picture below).
... but the result is certainly nothing to sneeze at!
What you see here is an asphalt-roof that was "rolled on" and is commonly used for buildings that feature a low sloped roof pitch. Read more about asphalt roofing. We made a new customer extremely happy when we cleaned her roof last week, making her feel like she got a “new house” (in her very own words). Read her enthusiastic 5 star review on our Facebook page:  I want to make this coming Sunday special and are preparing and practicing with my kids for Mother´s Day. Here you see me in the picture with my bouquet of flowers, that I bought today, to show my customers, that I am serious with my offer to bring flowers to their moms - or loved ones on this Mother´s Day!

This was a community close to the Courtney-Campbell-Causeway in Tampa, with 3-storey apartment buildings and a lot of roof square footage to clean. When we arrived, this was the view on the roofs from the top:   Thanks a lot to Gail for her friendly review! We sure were happy to help her out on Saturday, and hope she enjoyed her weekend even more, with that freshly cleaned tile roof. It often makes the world of a difference!

Best regards, Mauricio Munoz Owner  Charly + Mauricio Munoz There is lots to be said about DPI Pressure Washing in Clearwater and you can read many excellent customer testimonials on our website. However, I wanted to give you a very personal account on why I run this company and what makes me proud about what we do. My Family First of all: I am lucky to have a wonderful family that supports me all the way. My German wife and my 4 daughters are amazing and so full of energy, which inspires me every day. Having a stable family helps me a lot to give my best to our customers and staff and have fun while doing it. ;-)  Ella, Amelie + Luna Munoz  We often work in neighborhoods and communities that require their homeowners/tenants to keep their properties neat and clean to uphold the general appearance. And as much as we all like a clean and fresh look, it can be a pain in the b... for the home owner, when he has to find a pressure washing company on his own. Sometimes the property manager takes care of this and hires a professional pressure washing company like us, to get the roofs, walls, driveways and sidewalks cleaned. Especially sidewalks can get pretty filthy over time and carry the risk of slipping during the rainy season. To help the homeowner, we often advertise a thorough roof cleaning and provide the driveway cleaning for free.
