Power Sweeping
The Aesthetic Beauty of Your Properties — Enhanced.
Whether you're a property manager, a municipality, or a construction manager, power sweeping is a best practice that benefits your property.

Reliable, competitive, with a referral list backed by over 20 years of service.
Overview of Sweeping
Why Power Sweeping Matters
Asset Management
- Enhances the property investment.
- Reduces capital expenditures — sweeping increases the longevity of asphalt, concrete, sealcoat, striping, and hardscape.
- Weed and root damage from sand and dirt collection damages parking areas.
- Increasing the frequency of power sweeping may extend the life of sealcoat and striping by 20–30%.
Environmental
- Manage storm water — sweeping is one of the "Best Practices" for managing storm-water runoff.
- Rodent and animal control — dirty areas such as dumpster enclosures attract rodents and other disease-carrying animals, increasing public health risks.
Risk Management
- Reduces insurance liability and slip-and-fall litigation exposure.
- A documented proper sweeping plan can discourage frivolous lawsuits.
- Regular sweeping is a key element in a property maintenance program designed to minimize exposure.
Aesthetics
- Parking areas are where customers form their first impression.
- A clean lot encourages careful trash disposal and patron loyalty.
- Poorly maintained exteriors project that a business is run poorly — directly impacting sales revenue.
- A clean parking area attracts and retains tenants, and supports higher market value for leased and purchased space.
What to Expect
Setting the Right Expectations
Check your sweeping contract to see what is included in the service price. If you have additional needs that are not included (emptying trash cans, wiping can lids, blower work behind the building, hand pick-up of trash from planters, blower trash-enclosure work, pick-up of abandoned large items left outside trash enclosures), just let us know so we can price accordingly.
There are also a few things you should know about GBR Sweeping services:
- Machines are designed to pick up trash (cigarette butts, paper, sand). They are not built to pick up large debris or liquids.
- They do not remove stains (oil spills) from pavement.
- If you have your lot swept once a month, expect it to begin accumulating debris immediately after being swept — it will not look clean for the entire month.
- Sweeping contractors cannot be held responsible for slip-and-fall accidents. Sweeping keeps your lot neat and tidy, but our crew is only on-site for a limited time and conditions can change after we leave.

Damages
The Cost of a Dirty Parking Lot
- Dirty parking lots lose the "first impression" with customers.
- Litter increases the chance of slip-and-fall accidents — leading to lawsuits.
- Loose gravel and sand damage good pavement.
"Having a Clean Parking Lot projects an image of success, and people prefer to patronize the successful."
Steam Pressure Washing
GBR Pressure Washing
GBR Pressure Washing keeps grounds and walls free of debris and grime, giving customers and tenants a pleasant, clean environment while in your facilities. We handle small and large-scale commercial, industrial, and residential cleaning projects — protecting your company image through quality work.
Pressure washing keeps pollutants such as mold, carbon, mildew, dirt, rust stains, fungus, algae, and others from harming the structure. It also adds curb appeal for customers and visitors, and can increase property value. The benefits aren't only cosmetic — cleaning walls of mold and mildew (which can cause health problems for some individuals) is critical to keeping structures healthy.
