Patio Cleaning in Roscommon - The Local Challenge
Roscommon's lake and river landscape gives the county a distinctive charm - and a persistent problem for outdoor surfaces. Properties near Lough Ree, Lough Key, Lough Boderg and the River Shannon experience near-constant high ambient moisture, especially in low-lying areas. Patios on the north and east sides of these properties can be in shadow for much of the year, creating conditions in which algae grows without seasonal interruption.
In the towns - Roscommon Town, Boyle, Strokestown, Ballaghaderreen - the older housing stock tends to have concrete flag or brick paver patios that have often been in place for decades. Some have never been professionally cleaned. These respond very well to our pre-treatment and cleaning process - the transformation is often dramatic.
