Facade cleaning, Durban
Durban facades grow things. Humidity, salt air and warm shade turn dust into algae and mould on north and south elevations, and no amount of rain removes it. SKAI treats those surfaces from the air.
Organic growth holds moisture against plaster and paint and spreads along runoff lines. Where a surface needs treatment rather than rinsing, the chemistry is matched to the substrate and applied with controlled runoff.
Buildings along the beachfront and the harbour take salt that dulls glass and attacks frames. Purified water lifts it and dries clear.
Guest-facing facades cannot be closed for a scaffold programme. Drone access keeps entrances, parking and signage working while elevations are cleaned in sequence.
Work is planned around the coastal weather window, and runoff is directed away from walkways and planted areas before the flight.
Questions
Where the growth is on the surface, yes, with treatment matched to the substrate. Where it has entered the material, cleaning alone will not fix it and we say so.
Yes. Salt removal is a large part of what we do on the Durban coastline.
Pressure, nozzle and distance are controlled per elevation, and window and door seals are checked at the assessment.
It depends on area and access. Phases are scheduled so guest areas are not affected.
