Need Gum Gone? Chewing gum removal is a very sticky situation, whether it is stuck on your concrete, parking lot or the side of a building, gum eventually changes into a black smudge on concrete. But before that happens, visitors and clientele coming into a business will step on it and track it in all over the carpets and mats. Then it’s forced deep into the carpet fibers and into the porous surface of concrete or asphalt, just waiting for another person to step in it again, to carry it somewhere else.

We are happy to provide gum removal as one of our commercial pressure washing services in Wesley Chapel FL. Find more information on our service below:

METHODS FOR REMOVING GUM FROM CONCRETE

The best methods for removing chewing gum from concrete depends on the gum’s age and the level of penetration into the concrete surface. If the gum was left recently and it hasn’t penetrated the surface, we are sometimes able to remove it by covering it with ice until it freezes, then scraping the gum off with a putty knife.

The ice forces the gum to freeze into a workable substance compared to a gooey and stringy mess. Once that happens, we slide a putty knife or scraper under the gum. After that we slide the scraper very slowly under the gum and the entire piece should peel right off the concrete.

The above process is only possible with gum that is brand new.

When we remove gum that has turned black, or is smashed deep down into the concrete, we use a hot water power washer with the heat dialed up to 200 Degrees to melt the gum. For this type of gum removal service, we do not use very high pressure because that could harm the surface of the concrete!

Our crew never uses more pressure than necessary to safely clean concrete surfaces. These types of surfaces can be damaged a lot easier than people think, especially if they’re only 1-2 years old. Concrete can take up to 100 years to cure completely. That is why we always use hot water and the least amount of pressure possible for our professional gum removal professional.
