Retaining Walls Need Cleaning Too — Here’s Why They’re Often Skipped
They’re functional rather than decorative, so they tend to get overlooked until buildup is significant.
Why They Build Up Quickly
Retaining walls often sit in contact with soil and landscaping on one side, which keeps moisture concentrated against the surface and accelerates algae and mold growth compared to a freestanding wall.
Material Considerations
Whether a retaining wall is poured concrete, block, or natural stone changes the appropriate pressure and technique, similar to the material-specific approach used on driveways and pavers.
Including It in a Broader Cleaning Visit
Retaining walls are easy to add to a driveway or paver cleaning visit rather than booking as a separate job, since the equipment and setup overlap significantly.
