Year-Round Maintenance for Commercial & Industrial Sites

As the temperature drops and Ontario’s freeze–thaw cycles begin, commercial and industrial properties face months of harsh conditions that test every surface and drainage system. Salt, snow, and constant temperature swings can lead to cracks, corrosion, and costly structural damage.

The most effective approach isn’t a one-time cleanup. It’s a seasonal maintenance strategy that begins in the fall, continues throughout winter, and finishes with restoration in the spring.

At H2GO Mobile Wash, we help property managers and facility operators create maintenance programs that protect assets, maintain a professional image, and ensure year-round operational readiness.

Fall Preparation: Build Your Defence Before the First Freeze

Fall is the most important time to clean, degrease, and reset your property before cold weather rolls in.

Surface Cleaning & Inspection

Throughout the summer, dirt, dust, oil, and pollutants settle on building exteriors, windows, loading docks, driveways, and more. Fall is also a particularly messy time of year with pollen, leaves, and other debris collecting on every exterior surface. It’s the perfect season to schedule a full exterior inspection and clean-up, ensuring your property looks professional and is ready for the months ahead.

A comprehensive power washing service during the Fall helps clear away:

Dust and grime from building exteriors, entryways, and windows
Leaves, pollen, and dirt from eavestroughs, walkways, and outdoor common areas
Oil and grease from drive lanes, loading docks, and delivery zones
Debris near drains and grates, helping meltwater flow freely once temperatures drop

This type of fall cleanup keeps the property resilient throughout the winter months, while maintaining a safe and welcoming environment for employees and visitors.

Property Refresh for Staff and Visitors

Beyond safety and maintenance, fall is also the perfect time to refresh the property’s overall appearance before the long winter months. Clean building entrances, windows, siding & concrete, and walkways make a strong impression on tenants, employees, and visitors while boosting morale and professionalism.

Drain & Runoff Cleaning

Commercial and industrial drains often fill with sand, debris, and chemical residue. If not flushed before freezing weather, it may prevent meltwater from draining properly that can lead to blockages, pooling and/or ice buildup.

At H2GO, we use high-pressure and hot water power washing to flush out commercial & industrial drains, restoring clear flow paths and removing buildups effectively.

Surface Detailing & Degreasing

Fall is also an ideal time to remove any oil slicks, forklift tire marks, or spilled residues from industrial floors. Degreasing and hot-water washing reduce slip hazards and make it easier to maintain traction when snow and salt arrive.

Winter Maintenance: Managing Salt, Ice, and Appearance

Once winter hits, the focus shifts from preparation to prevention, stopping buildup before it causes damage and keeping your property safe and welcoming for employees and guests. High-traffic areas such as warehouses, manufacturing plants, and office complexes quickly accumulate salt, sand, and grime from vehicles and foot traffic. Left untreated, this residue not only looks unsightly, but can also corrode and stain asphalt, concrete, metal, sealant around windows & doors, and other surfaces.

H2GO’s hot-water power washing systems make it possible to clean effectively even through freezing temperatures. Our crews can refresh your building’s exterior, removing dirt & salt, clearing drains, and melting snow and ice dams. Regular hot-water washing throughout the winter maintains curb appeal, ensures a clean impression for employees & visitors, and avoids costly repairs in the spring.

Spring Cleaning: Clean, Inspect, and Restore

After months of snow and salt exposure, your property’s surfaces need a reset.

Hot-Water Deep Clean & Salt Removal

A spring power wash service gives your commercial or industrial property the deep clean it needs. We remove corrosive salt residue, restoring concrete and asphalt on walkways, parking lots, and building exteriors. This also prepares properties for spring renovation projects such as painting, staining and landscaping.

Spring is a great time to refresh windows, building facades, signage, and other areas to ensure a professional and welcoming appearance.

Heavy-Duty Degreasing for Industrial Sites

Factories and industrial plants benefit from a spring degreasing to remove soot, oil, and film that accumulate indoors and outdoors during winter production.
