Sunco — Bluffton, SC & surrounding areas
Your facility is the engine that keeps your business running. But grime, oil stains, mold, and built-up pollution don’t just make a warehouse or factory look tired — they slow operations, create hazards, and shorten the life of your building and equipment. At Sunco, we’ve helped Bluffton-area businesses keep their buildings working and looking like professionals. Here’s how industrial building washing turns headaches into dependable, visible value — told simply, like a plan.
The problem (your enemy)
Factories and warehouses take constant abuse. Forklifts track oil and dirt across loading docks. Vents and gutters collect sticky residue. Exterior siding and concrete trap mold and mildew in our humid Lowcountry climate. Those visible problems also hide real risks: slick surfaces increase slips and falls, pollutants accelerate corrosion, and untreated growth eats away at paint, seals, and insulation. OSHA explicitly flags warehousing and industrial settings as environments where slips, trips, falls, and other hazards demand proactive cleaning and maintenance.
Left unchecked, small maintenance issues become costly downtime, insurance headaches, and reduced curb appeal — which can matter when you’re bidding for contracts, onboarding clients, or recruiting staff.
The Safe & Clean Workplace You Deserve
You want a safe workplace, predictable operations, and a building that reflects the professionalism inside. You want your facility to be low-maintenance, code-compliant, and ready for inspections — without headaches or surprise repairs.
How Sunco Helps
Sunco knows the Lowcountry: Bluffton, Hilton Head, Beaufort, and nearby industrial corridors. We’ve specialized in exterior cleaning since 2009, and we bring that local experience to industrial building washing — not a one-size-fits-all blast of water, but a calibrated, OSHA-aware plan that protects surfaces and people.
We understand industrial buildings have delicate and durable areas: metal cladding, concrete aprons, loading docks, parking areas, canopies, and exterior HVAC housings. Each surface needs a tailored approach — the right pressure, the right detergents, and containment plans that protect drains and landscaping in our coastal environment.
The Sunco Plan
- Assessment: We walk your facility, identify trouble spots (oils, rust, biological growth, graffiti), and note operational constraints like shift times or loading windows.
- Customized cleaning plan: We recommend low-pressure soft washing where coatings or sealants are present, higher-pressure surface cleaning for concrete aprons and docks, and targeted degreasing for oil/grease build-up. Our methods emphasize safety and compliance.
- Safe execution: Work is scheduled to minimize disruption. We use containment and responsible runoff controls to protect storm drains and landscaping. Our crews follow safety standards and PPE practices recommended for commercial cleaning operations.
- Follow-up & maintenance schedule: Regular wash cycles keep problems from returning and extend the life of coatings, paint, and roofing — saving money over time.
Why it Works (benefits that matter)
- Safer work environment. Removing grease and grime reduces slip/trip hazards — a small investment in cleaning can lower injury risk and potential OSHA attention.
- Longer asset life. Dirt, salt, mold, and pollutants accelerate wear. Regular cleaning preserves paint, metal, and sealants, delaying expensive repairs or premature replacements.
- Better first impressions. A clean exterior signals operational excellence to customers, inspectors, and partners.
- Cost control. Proactive maintenance avoids reactive emergency repairs that disrupt production.
Common Objections (and our answers)
- “Will pressure washing damage surfaces?” Not if it’s done correctly. Sunco matches pressure, technique, and detergents to each surface — soft washing for delicate coatings; stronger surface cleaning only where appropriate.
- “What about safety and regulations?” Our methods follow OSHA guidance for cleaning operations and warehouse safety principles to reduce hazards and maintain compliance.
