Local proof points
Concrete tiles left uncoated for 10 or more years develop a surface texture that retains moisture and accelerates freeze-thaw degradation in winter. A restoration coating seals that porosity and halts the cycle before the tile body itself is compromised.
Moss and lichen produce rhizoids that penetrate the tile surface mechanically, widening micro-pores and creating pathways for water. Under freeze-thaw conditions, water in those pathways expands and can cause surface spalling on both terracotta and concrete tiles.
The wash is delivered at high flow and low pressure — typically 8 to 12 litres per minute at 500 to 700 PSI. That combination removes moss and lichen without stripping the remaining surface treatment from the tile profile.
