Quick answer
Commercial pressure and soft washing in North Alabama uses the same methods as homes, but it has to fit around business hours and be dry and safe before doors open. The ACM Pros have cleaned shopping centers, restaurants, hotels, apartment complexes and a church, and we are insured for commercial work. Most sites do best on a recurring schedule.

What changes on commercial work
The cleaning is not very different. The scheduling is. Commercial work usually has to happen outside business hours, which means early starts or after-hours work, and it has to be finished and dry before doors open.
Site safety changes too. Wet walkways in a public space need signs and careful management in a way a home driveway does not.
Recurring rather than one-off
Most commercial exteriors need a schedule rather than a single visit. Entrances and busy walkways get dirty far faster than homes, and a quarterly or monthly schedule keeps the property presentable instead of swinging between clean and neglected.
A schedule also costs less per visit than repeated one-off callouts. How often depends on foot traffic, tree cover and whether food is served.
How it compares with home washing
Same methods, different limits. Roofs and walls are still soft washed, and concrete still gets real pressure with a surface cleaner. What drives a commercial quote is access hours, how often you want it done and the paperwork your property needs, more than square footage alone.
Planning a commercial clean
- Your preferred days and hours, and when doors open
- Where we can connect to water, and any runoff rules on site
- Any proof of insurance your property manager requires
- Surfaces in scope, such as roofs, walls, walkways, drive-thru lanes and dumpster pads
- Who to contact on site on the day
What affects the price
We price after measuring, line by line, with the materials named. These are the things that move the number.
- Square footage and mix of surfaces
- How often: recurring visits cost less each
- Working hours required
- Access, water source and runoff limits
- Insurance paperwork your property requires

Questions people ask
Do you work outside business hours?
Yes, and for most commercial sites that is the only way it works. Surfaces have to be dry and safe before doors open, which sets the schedule more than the cleaning does.
How often should a commercial exterior be cleaned?
Busy entrances and walkways get dirty far faster than homes, so most sites want a schedule rather than a one-off. How often depends on foot traffic, tree cover and whether food is served.
Are you insured for commercial work?
Yes. Our insurance covers both residential and commercial work, and we can provide proof of insurance for your property manager.
What kinds of businesses have you cleaned for?
We have cleaned for shopping centers, restaurants, hotels, apartment complexes and a church. The work has ranged from storefront walkways to hotel roofs and several apartment buildings in one job.
Can you remove grease and oil from a drive-thru or patio?
Yes. We have cleaned restaurant patios, pavers and drive-thru lanes, including grease and oil stains. Old oil that has soaked deep into concrete usually improves a lot but may not disappear completely.
Do you remove graffiti?
Yes. We choose the method for the surface, so the paint is lifted rather than driven deeper into brick or concrete.
Can you clean several buildings in one visit?
Yes. We have soft washed several apartment buildings in one job. On larger sites we plan the order of work around parking, entrances and residents.
Can you clean old brick or a church building?
Yes. We have removed white staining from church brick with a method matched to the building. Older masonry needs a gentler approach than new concrete, so we choose the method before we start.
