Need Gum Gone? Chewing gum removal can be a very sticky business, whether it is stuck on your concrete, parking lot or on the side of a building, chewing gum eventually changes into a smudge on your concrete. But before that happens, visitors and clientele walking into a store or office will step on it and track it in all over your carpets, rugs and mats. Then it is forced deep into the carpet and into the porous surface of concrete, just waiting for another person to step in it again, to track it somewhere else.

We are happy to provide gum removal as one of our commercial pressure washing services in Concord NC. Find more information on our service below:

METHODS FOR REMOVING GUM FROM CONCRETE

The best methods of removing gum from concrete depends on the gum’s age and level of penetration into the concrete surface. If the chewing gum was left not long ago and it has not penetrated the surface yet, we might be able to get it off by covering it with ice until it freezes, then scraping it off with a metal putty knife.

The ice forces the chewing gum to freeze into a workable consistency compared to a gooey and stringy glob. Once the chewing gum is frozen, we slide a putty knife or scraper under the gum residue. Next we move the scraper slowly under the gum and the whole piece should then peel right off the concrete.

The above process is only possible with brand new gum.

When we remove gum that has turned black, or is smashed down into the concrete, we use a hot water pressure washer with the heat turned up to 200 Degrees to melt the chewing gum. For this type of gum removal, we won’t use high pressure because that might harm the surface of the concrete!

Our team never uses any more pressure than needed to safely clean concrete surfaces. These types of surfaces can be destroyed much easier than most people think, especially if they’re only a few years old. Concrete can require up to 100 years to cure. That is why we always use hot water and the least amount of pressure possible for our professional chewing gum removal professional.
