What causes the orange stains?
Many Florida irrigation systems draw well water with a high iron content. Every time the sprinklers run, a little iron lands on your fence, walls and pavers and oxidizes into rust-colored stains.
Will the stains come back?
If the water source stays the same, new staining will build up over time. That's what the preservation plans are for: regular visits remove it before it becomes noticeable. We can also point out sprinkler heads that are hitting your home directly.
Do you use a pressure washer?
No high-pressure washing. Our treatment is hand-applied and dissolves the stain, then we rinse at low pressure. That protects stucco, vinyl, paint and paver joints that high pressure can damage.
Is it safe for my family, pets and landscaping?
Yes. It's safe for your family, pets and lawn, and gentle on the bay. We apply it by hand rather than spraying it across the yard, every visit includes Landscape Shield™, our proprietary nature preservation process, and surfaces are safe to touch once our service is complete.
What is Landscape Shield™?
Landscape Shield™ is Clean Bright's proprietary nature preservation process, included on every visit at no extra charge. Before any treatment begins, we pre-wet your plants, lawn and landscaping with pure H2O, and after treatment we rinse them again with pure H2O. Surfaces are safe to touch once Clean Bright Specialists' service is complete.
Why not just repaint or replace?
Because the surface usually isn't damaged, only stained. Restoring it costs a fraction of repainting or a new fence, takes hours instead of days, and doesn't leave you matching paint colors. Paint over sprinkler rust and the rust tends to bleed back through.
Can I just text you a photo?
Yes, and it's the fastest way to start. Text a photo of the stain to 727-C-BRIGHT (727-227-4448). We'll tell you what it is, whether we can remove it, and set up a free demonstration.
What is the free demonstration?
We treat a small, stained section of your property so you can watch it clear in person, then give you a price for the full restoration. There's no obligation.
What if it doesn't work on my stain?
Then you owe nothing. If the demonstration area doesn't clear, there's no charge and no obligation. Bright Estate members also get a free re-treat if staining returns within 30 days of a visit. On other plans, if staining comes back faster than your schedule, we'll recommend a more frequent plan.
Do I need to be home?
For the demonstration, we'd like you there to see it. For restorations and plan visits, no, as long as we can reach the surfaces and any gates are unlocked. We'll text you before and after each visit.
When can kids and pets go back on the lawn?
As soon as our service is complete. Surfaces are safe to touch when we're done.
Will it affect my pool, paver sealer or plants?
We protect them. Your landscaping is covered by Landscape Shield™, we work by hand near pools and sealed pavers, and we test a small area first on any surface we haven't treated before.
Are you insured?
Yes. Clean Bright Specialists is locally owned, backed by a Florida building contractor, and insured, bonded and covered by workers' compensation. For someone inviting a crew onto their property, that matters. A certificate of insurance is available on request.
