Concrete Cleaning in NoDa, NC
NoDa concrete cleaning splits between two worlds. The residential side is classic Charlotte mill-village bungalow concrete — walkway connectors, foundation walls, porch foundation skirts, small courtyards, and alley aprons, much of it original and pre-1978. The commercial side along North Davidson and 36th is brewery, restaurant, and gallery concrete: high-foot-traffic patios, beer-garden pads, sidewalk seating, loading-bay aprons, and grease-stained kitchen exit pads. Both need different chemistry and pressure profiles.

NoDa concrete cleaning splits between two worlds. The residential side is classic Charlotte mill-village bungalow concrete — walkway connectors, foundation walls, porch foundation skirts, small courtyards, and alley aprons, much of it original and pre-1978. The commercial side along North Davidson and 36th is brewery, restaurant, and gallery concrete: high-foot-traffic patios, beer-garden pads, sidewalk seating, loading-bay aprons, and grease-stained kitchen exit pads. Both need different chemistry and pressure profiles.
Residential bungalow concrete gets softwashing on vertical surfaces and a careful surface-cleaner pass on horizontal ones, with lead-safe rinse practices near any pre-1978 painted trim. Commercial concrete gets aggressive degreasing first — grease, beer, and food residue need a true alkaline degreaser before we surface-clean with hot water. Hot water is non-negotiable on commercial NoDa concrete; cold water just smears the grease. Efflorescence on foundation walls — common on the older mill-era buildings — gets the standard biological kill plus dilute acidic treatment. We schedule commercial work pre-dawn or post-close to avoid disrupting customers.
