Commercial Oxidation Removal

Oxidation Cleaning Ottawa

Most common areas on buildings with oxidation is aluminum siding, metal roofs, metal flashing, and underneath signs. Oxidation can also occur on brick underneath siding or metal flashing. Typically it changes the surface colour to a white or gray colour. If you rub your fingers across the surface and see white on your fingers, you have oxidation.

Softwash Butler uses the industries safest and most powerful cleaning agents for removing oxidation. We opt for a brushless method as this is the best option for not causing damage to the surface. Where required, we will gently agitate areas to help the restoration process. Oxidation is one of our most tedious services; most surfaces require multiple coats of treatment. Our goal is to remove all oxidation and have the surface return to one uniform colour again

I had an excellent experience working with Softwash Butler to have my parking space cleaned. I phoned them up about cleaning a fairly large amount of undercoating oil that dripped off my truck onto my parking spot, and Calvin walked me through what my options were, and set honest and realistic expectations about how clean it could get, which I very much appreciated! Other cleaning services in the Ottawa area force you wait for days on end hoping to find out if they'll even consider taking on the job (if they ever get back to you at all), but Calvin was able to give me an immediate answer right on the first call! He was personable, easy to talk to, and worked within my tight schedule to get an appointment booked as soon as possible. Kaylee on the admin side was very communicative and quick to respond, and made the whole setup process smooth and straightforward. And Ryan, who handled the job on-site, was super friendly and professional, and he did an awesome job with the cleanup, especially considering the specific limitations of my condominium's underground parking garage (the ceiling's quite low and there's no water hookups). He let me know as soon as he was done, we went over the final result together, and I'm very happy with how it turned out! Overall I'm super impressed with the Softwash Butler team and how helpful they were, and how easy they made everything from quoting to cleaning, to invoicing and payment. I'd absolutely recommend them!

We have had our gutters cleaned many times in the past - but never before by Softwash Butler. They have been our best experience and we will continue to use them from now on. They arrived right on time with all the equipment they needed to do the job. Their service representative was very pleasant, professional and did a very thorough job, despite working in inclement weather from a tall ladder on a very tall two storey house. Their price was very competitive. I would highly recommend them. Norm B.

Huge thanks to Calvin and the team at Softwash Butlers, they truly care about their clients and don’t just try to push the most expensive service. The estimator gave me a great tip on how to clean my interlock myself successfully! While they didn’t charge me for the service, they’ve still gained a lifelong customer and spokesperson!

Commercial Calcium & Efflorescence Removal

Efflorescence & Salt Stain Cleaning Ottawa

Winters in Canada are long and eventful. We use a lot of salt to make our surfaces safe to walk and drive on. All that salt gets absorbed into our concrete, interlock, and brick. In the spring, summer, and fall the salt comes out of these surfaces as a white stain called efflorescence. These stains can be hard to remove without the appropriate equipment and chemicals. If these stains are ignored for many years, the build up could grow to a size no chemicals can clean, meaning it will require soda blasting to remove – which is a very expensive and messy process (it will also leaves marks and damage to the surface it cleans).

Calcium and lime scale can also appear on your interlock, concrete, stone, and brick. It appears naturally where water exposure is prevalent. This is especially true around buildings with sprinklers and pools. Softwash Butler’s restoration process will safely and effectively remove these stains from your property. Ignoring these stains too long will also result in soda blasting being required to effectively remove the buildup. Call today before serious action is required to restore your surfaces!

Commercial Rust Stain Removal

Rust Stain Cleaning Ottawa

Ever notice those reddish/orange marks in sidewalks? That’s actually rust! They’re from snow plows and metal shovels during the winter. Over time metal shards scrap into the sidewalk and the salt makes those metal shavings rust. To keep your business or property looking well maintained and cared for, it is recommended to clean these stains every spring/summer.

Rust can appears all over your building due to the large amount of metal used to build our properties. We also live in a climate where we use a lot of salt, which increases the process of metal rusting. Softwash Butler uses safe but powerful cleaning agents to effectively remove rust stains from surfaces without damaging the metal or surfaces around it. Our process removes the difficult stains on the surface, but to prevent future stains from coming back, the rusting metal in the area will need to be replaced.

Commercial Grease & Oil Stain Removal

Oil and Grease Stain Cleaning Ottawa

We see it everywhere, oil stains on driveways, sidewalks, garage, and interlock; but did you know the stain can be removed from all those surfaces. Softwash Butler uses a mixture of hot water pressure washers and our safe, yet highly effective cleaning agents to lift oil stains from the surface. If there are large oil spills, our team will use large surface cleaners to bring the surface back to a uniform clean.

Grease stains on buildings usually happen around the company BBQ, kitchen exhaust, and dumpsters. Dumpster pads are recommended to be cleaned monthly to prevent mice/rat population, reduce smells, and give the property an overall better curb appeal. Grease, like oil, also requires heat to effectively remove. You wouldn’t wash your dishes in cold water, this is why we bring our hot water pressure washing systems for these services. Our teams are fully trained and certified to clean all surfaces with this hot water system and using our safe, yet powerful cleaning agents.
