Most grease spill cleanup jobs have to do with restaurants, hydraulic equipment and engine oil leaks.
However, we’ve had a few jobs that involve grease spill cleanup from home cooking – usually around a barbeque grill.
Grease Spill Cleanup On A Downtown Denver Balcony
One such grease spill cleanup job took place at a downtown Denver loft where one owner on the top floor had a grill on their balcony. The grill leaked grease over the edge of the balcony onto a neighboring balcony below.
It wasn’t a large quantity of grease, but it was enough that hand cleaning the mess wasn’t practical for the owner of the leaky grill. So he called us for grease spill cleanup on his neighbor’s balcony.
Access to the neighbor’s balcony was tricky. Our crew had to carry hose up to the balcony and lower it down to the truck. They had to be careful of how the hose hung over the balcony, keeping it away from the lower neighbor’s area. They also had to be careful to blast the grease spill cleanup away from the lower neighbor’s area.
Although the quantity of grease was minimal compared to the grease spill cleanups we usually deal with, using our degreaser and hot water on the splatters was more effective and efficient than if our customer had tried to clean it by hand.
And we always make sure the wastewater is recovered if necessary. You can’t just wash a grease spill cleanup down the gutter!
As spring approaches it’s time to think about cleaning up from the long, snowy winter. Cleaning building exteriors, sidewalks, house siding, patios, driveways and decks is a great way to freshen the appearance and usefulness of properties – your own or a rental.
If you have an old grease spill cleanup or any other kind of mess, give us a call to see if power washing is the best option for you.
