Patios get use during the warmer months. During these times, germs and bacteria are bound to build up on patio furniture and accessories. While hiring a professional cleaner is always an option, they just tend to cost quite a bit of money. Instead, sanitize Patios in Hartford CT without having to hire a professional by following these steps.
Sweep and Hose Down
The floor of a patio will need to be thoroughly swept before the actual scrubbing and cleaning occurs. Simply use a broom and dust pan and remove any leaves or other particles from the ground of the patio. From there, prepare to protect the plants surrounding the patio. To do this, place a tarp or large plastic wrap on top of flower beds. This will protect them from soap suds. From there, bring out a large garden hose and completely hose down the patio floor and furniture on the patio.
Scrub Away
Once the patio furniture and the floor of the patio are soaked, it is time to scrub away any dirt and grime from the floor and furniture. To make a patio cleaning mixture, add some mild dish washing soap into a bucket with warm water. Use this mixture along with a scrub brush to scrub away dirty spots on the furniture. Also, use this mixture to manually scrub away hard to remove spots on the floor of the patio. Once the tough dirt spots are removed, use a regular mop to mop the remainder of the floor. Rinse off the floor and furniture by turning the hose back on and using high pressured water to wash away the soapy grime. Allow the furniture and floor to air dry. Visit here for more details.
