Need Gum Gone? Chewing gum removal can be a sticky business, whether it’s on your concrete, parking lot or on the side of a building, gum eventually turns into a smudge on concrete. But usually before that happens, pedestrians and clients walking into a store or office will walk on it and track it in all over the carpets, rugs and entryway mats. Then it’s forced deep into the carpet and into the porous surface of concrete or asphalt, just waiting for someone to step in it again, to track it somewhere else in your building.

We are proud to offer gum removal as one of our commercial pressure washing services in Temple TX. Find more information about our process below:

METHODS FOR REMOVING GUM FROM CONCRETE

The best methods of removing chewing gum from concrete usually depends on how long the gum has been there and level of penetration into the concrete surface. If the gum was left recently and it has not penetrated the surface, we might be able to remove it by covering it with ice until the gum freezes, then scraping it off with a metal putty knife.

The ice forces the chewing gum to freeze into a workable substance compared to a warm and sticky glob. Once that happens, we slide a putty knife or scraper directly under the gum residue. After that we slide the scraper slowly beneath the gum and the whole piece should peel right off the concrete.

The above method is only possible with gum that is brand new.

When we remove chewing gum that is already black, or is already smashed down into the concrete, we use a hot water power washer with the heat turned up to 200 Degrees to melt the chewing gum. For this type of gum removal service, we do not use high pressure because that will sometimes harm the surface of the concrete!

Our crew never uses more pressure than necessary to clean commercial concrete surfaces. These types of surfaces can be damaged a lot easier than most people think, especially if they’re only 1-2 years old. Concrete can require up to 100 years to cure completely. That is why we always use hot water and the least amount of pressure possible for our professional chewing gum removal professional.
