Need Gum Gone? Chewing gum removal can be a very sticky situation, whether it’s stuck on your concrete, parking lot or on the side of a building, chewing gum eventually transforms into a smudge on concrete. But usually before then, pedestrians and clientele walking into a store or office will step on the chewing gum and track it in all over the carpets, rugs and entryway mats. Then it’s embedded deep into the carpet and into the porous surface of concrete or asphalt, just waiting for another person to step in it again, to track it somewhere else.

We are happy to offer gum removal as one of our commercial pressure washing services in Rialto CA. Find more information about our service below:

METHODS FOR REMOVING GUM FROM CONCRETE

The best methods of removing chewing gum from concrete usually depends on the gum’s age and level of penetration into the concrete surface. If the chewing gum was left recently and it hasn’t penetrated the surface yet, we are sometimes able to remove it by covering it with ice until it freezes, then scraping the gum off with a metal putty knife.

The ice forces the gum to freeze into a more forgiving consistency compared to a gooey and sticky glob. Once the gum is frozen, we slide a metal putty knife or scraper right under the gum. After that we move the scraper very slowly beneath the gum and the whole piece should peel right off of the concrete.

The above method is only possible with brand new gum.

When we remove gum that is already black, or is already smashed deep down into the concrete, we use a hot water power washer with the heat dialed up to 200 Degrees to melt the chewing gum. For this type of gum removal, we don’t use very high pressure because that will sometimes ruin the surface of the concrete!

Our pressure washers never uses any more pressure than needed to clean concrete. These surfaces can be destroyed a lot easier than most people think, especially if they’re only 1-2 years old. Concrete can take up to 100 years to cure. That is why we always use hot water and the least amount of pressure possible for our chewing gum removal service.
