MRO or maintenance, repair, and
operations involve fixing all kinds of electrical, mechanical, and plumbing
issues at residential as well as commercial level. People living in Seattle are
no strangers to heavy rainfall and extreme weather conditions that often wreak
havoc outdoors.
That’s why, maintenance contractors in Seattle, must cover a
wide range of repair and maintenance services, such as:
Pressure Washing
Power or pressure washing is the
use of high-pressure water spray for removing molds, dust, grime, mud, loose
paint, and dirt from various types of surfaces, be it painted, metal, or
concrete. Extremely high-pressure washing is used by industries that require
removal of surface layers. High-pressure water, combined with certain chemicals
helps in removing graffiti from surfaces.
Pressure washing is employed in
airfield rubber removal. In airports, the landing strips are required to
maintain a certain level of friction to prevent plains from skidding. The
runway design, amount of rubber, as well as the weather, play a role in the
landing strip’s level of friction. If there’s excess of rubber, especially
during rainy weather, the landing strip’s friction level will be lower. In such
cases, hydro cleaning (or pressure washing) is used to get rid of the excess
rubber particles.
Awning and Signage Maintenance
Awning and signage repair is an
important maintenance service required in Seattle, since heavy rains and strong
winds tend to uproot these. Although modern awnings are built to resist winds,
they can only do so if an awning’s width, length, the number of supporting arms
and the material used are all in correct proportion. Still, these are subjected
to wither with time and environmental factors. The same goes for signage –
billboards, street names, street signs, etc. are subject to decay and corrosion
and require prompt maintenance.
Drywall Repair and Replacement
Drywall is extremely vulnerable
to moisture that is caused by inherent properties of its composition (paper,
gypsum, binders, and organic additives). Gypsum softens when exposed to
moisture and turns into a gooey paste if left unattended. At times, some parts
or the entire drywall needs to get removed and replaced with a new one.
Therefore, drywall repair and replacement is also a maintenance service that is
often required.
