Need Gum Gone? Chewing gum removal is a very sticky situation, whether it’s stuck on your concrete, parking lot or the side of a building, chewing gum eventually turns into a black smudge on your concrete. But usually before that point, visitors and clientele coming into a store or office will step on the gum and get it in all over the carpets, rugs and entryway mats. Then it is embedded deep into the carpet and into the porous surface of concrete or asphalt, just waiting for someone to step in it again, to track it somewhere else in your building.

We are proud to provide gum removal as one of our commercial pressure washing services in Roswell GA. Find more information about our methods below:

METHODS FOR REMOVING GUM FROM CONCRETE

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

The ice forces the chewing gum to freeze into a workable consistency compared to a gooey and sticky mess. Once that happens, we slide a putty knife or scraper right under the gum. After that we slide the scraper slowly under the gum and the whole piece should peel right off of the concrete.

The above method is only possible with gum that is brand new.

When we remove gum that is already black, or is smashed deep down into the concrete, we use a hot water pressure washer with the heat dialed up to 200 Degrees in order to melt the chewing gum. For this type of gum removal, we do not use high pressure because that will sometimes damage the surface of the concrete!

Our pressure washers never uses more pressure than necessary to safely clean commercial concrete surfaces. These surfaces can be damaged much easier than people think, especially if they’re only a few years old. Concrete can require up to 100 years to cure. That is why we always use hot water and the least amount of pressure possible for our professional gum removal service.
