Parking Deck Cleaning

Parking decks are being perpetually contaminated by vehicles and people. Keeping them clean protects the structures, the people using them, and the image of the property.

Parking Deck Cleaning Service Overview

Efficient and Compliant

Parking garage surfaces get dirty quickly for a variety of reasons. The primary reason that we get called in for a project is to complete the removal of hydrocarbon dust deposits. Vehicle engines combust for a combined hundreds of thousands of hours in every parking deck every year. Hydrocarbon dust is a by-product of this exhaust and can be found on the ground, on the walls, on top of pipes, and even in stairwells. Our wash process efficiently gets hydrocarbon dust into solution and removes it from all surfaces without it getting airborne. Our parking deck cleaning solutions range from quick and inexpensive maintenance cleanings to full deep cleanings of all surfaces to remove organic growth, leaked oils/fluids, and cobwebs around lights in addition to hydrocarbon dust deposits. For the vast majority of the decks we service, our operational plans allow the decks to be open and accessible 100% of the time we are working.

    The Nitty Gritty Details of Parking Deck Cleaning

    What is involved in a “maintenance cleaning?”
    Maintenance cleaning is where we use hot water and medium pressure to flush loose dirt and dust deposits out of the areas they have collected in the parking deck. Additionally, we run a low pressure floor scrubber over all of the flatwork to collect the dirty water and leave a puddle free result.

    What is involved in a “deep cleaning?”
    A full parking garage deep clean includes the brushing of dirty pipes, the removal of cobwebs around lights, the washing of walls, and a high pressure hot water cleaning of the flatwork using our Cyclone CY210 fleet.
    Why are hydrocarbons so bad?
    The presence of hydrocarbons dramatically reduces air quality and residual hydrocarbon dust in a parking deck inevitably gets drug into all of the spaces visited by those who use the parking deck.

    What are the requirements of compliance?
    Cleaning contractors must complete their work to the standards defined by the EPA’s clean water act of 1972 and the regulations defined by the municipality associated with the job site.

    • Since meeting Southern Outdoor Restoration at a CAI event in 2018, they have been a pure blessing to work with. Their estimates are clear on the scope of work and pricing has always been better than their competition, in my experience. The work that is completed is always in line with the scope of work and the professionalism of the staff is beyond expectation. The communication throughout the project through completion is unmatched. They have made several of the communities I manage look brand new!!

    • I wanted to apologize for not realizing that the pressure washing was not just the siding, but the patios as well. I moved patio chairs and furniture, etc, but did not remove other smaller things that I thought would not be affected by the chemicals of the wash. When I came home, I realized that the back patio looked spotless and was so grateful that the employees took the time to carefully and creatively move the those items that were in their way.
      Katherine
    • We are very pleased with the job your company did for us. We particularly appreciate being made aware of the clogged downspout at unit 3035, as well as your recommendation for addressing this problem. We were not aware of any remaining issues of this type, as we had earlier paid to have these underground clogs identified and fixed, by moving the drainage above ground. We were obviously misinformed, when we were assured that all those issues had been resolved.

    • Not sure what emails you received on Southern Outdoor. But the gentlemen were were very respectful and did a great job. I was skeptical at first because I help a friend that's in the same business and he always does my property. But they did a very good job.

    • My appreciation is about the conduct of your returning crew. They diligently tried to locate and resolve the issue. When approaching other residents in the complex, they introduced themselves and politely requested help in finding the problem (which had been removed before they arrived). The Board happened to be on the property on other business and each of your team acknowledged us politely as they passed. Please pass my thanks on to your crew. We really appreciate these type of folks working on our property.

    • Carlton just sought me out to let me know what a great and professional job SOR did. He went on to describe the report AND to say he had forwarded the report and his endorsement to people that he thought could use your services. His concluding comment was that SOR did the type of work & service that is just unlike anything in this type of business. A “Raving Fan.”

    • Everything looks great. The community looks better as a whole since your guys have been here. I think everyone is pleased with their work and also their friendliness while performing their job. Thanks again for your help.
      Michael Mims
    • Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to add on to what you were already doing for our community. The guys did a fantastic job and I'm very pleased with the result. They were very professional and friendly as well. I'm sending a note to the management company, Slatter, as well. Hopefully, we'll continue to use your services in the future. Thanks again. Have a great day.

    • My gutters in The Meredith Townes Community were cleaned on Sunday morning, April 14. The crew did a great job. Thank you! Cliff was one of the 3 workers and he brought me outside to see the magnitude of my gutter and downspout blockage. When the worker on the roof put the blower in the opening to the downspout, water and debris gushed from the top and from the lower seam of the downspout. Again, Many thanks!
      Fran Carruthers
    • Thank you for being so professional and courteous. I was on my screened porch and did not realize my front storm door was not completely latched. This young man, before he started blowing the debris from the gutters away from my porch, took the time to close my door so the debris would not come into the house. You really do have a great group of men doing some dirty and often dangerous work. Please let them know they are appreciated 😊
      Kathy Messina
    • Please let the gutter cleaning company know that they did a wonderful job. I didn't realize that they had been by until I noticed that my deck was cleaner than it had been. They even closed the gate on my deck.
      Melissa Bowman
    • From my ground-level perspective, it appears that SOR did an excellent job at my location, propitiously at exactly the right time, after all leaves in my area had fallen. They blew off patio and deck thoroughly. Seems like a good outfit. Thanks.
      Dick Robinson
    • Thank you for coming by yesterday and cleaning my gutters. They look fantastic!
      Anne Boney
    • I have never been compelled to write a note of appreciation during a power washing event before. Tarik and Greg are the exception to the rule. I could not be more appreciative of their customer service orientation, their initiative, their thoughtful consideration of what would be best for me and my property and their efficient use of time and effort. Congratulations for hiring and supporting and keeping these great members of your team.

    • Just wanted to let you know that the board president who lives in one of the townhomes emailed this morning and said he was “very pleased with the power washing of the townhouses”

    • I would highly recommend Southern Outdoor Restoration — our community has been using their services on a continuing basis for about 5 years. They provide us with gutter cleaning; power washing of buildings, concrete surfaces, and street gutters; and deck repair along with power washing and staining. The management and crews are very professional and take pride in their work. Their work is done in a very timely and professional manner. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing their services.
