WHITEWASHING

Whitewashing a barn involves applying a lime-based solution to walls and floors to sanitize and brighten the space. Whitewash is a mixture, typically made with hydrated lime (mason's lime, not garden or soil lime) and water, sometimes with added salt for durability.

Whitewashing barns help kill bacteria and mildew keeping the barn clean and healthy for all animals. This application brightens the darkness often in a barn giving the feel of clean and inviting space while also making the barn floor easier to clean and maintain.

Whitewash should be completed annually to maintain cleanliness and hygiene often in the spring prior to the warmer months. Many farmers often whitewash their barns before kidding or calving to ensure a clean and sanitary environment for the new animals.

EQUIPMENT/MACHINERY MAINTENCE

WCSM Pressure Washing regularly pressure washing farming and contracting equipment offers numerous benefits, including preventing wear and tear, improving efficiency, ensuring safety, and extending equipment lifespan, ultimately saving money and time. Clean, well-maintained equipment is more valuable when it's time to sell.

Dirt, grime, and residue buildup can cause mechanical parts to wear out faster. Pressure washing removes these contaminants, preventing premature wear and tear. Soil, debris, and chemical residues can lead to rust and corrosion, especially on metal components. Regular cleaning helps prevent this damage, extending the equipment's lifespan.

Pressure washing can be a more efficient and cost-effective cleaning method compared to manual labor and specialized cleaning chemicals. In some cases, cleanliness is a requirement for safety and environmental regulations. Proper cleaning helps prevent the spread of contaminants and ensures that equipment is ready for storage and subsequent use.
