Gum removal services in the bay area
Keep your walkways spotless — Willow Wash removes gum, stains, and residue from sidewalks and storefronts for a clean, professional look.
Over time, chewing gum, food residue, and stains can build up on sidewalks, entryways, and storefronts — creating sticky, unsightly spots that hurt your property’s appearance and customer experience. Gum doesn’t just look bad; it hardens over time, becoming difficult to remove and leaving dark marks that damage concrete and flooring.

Using hot water pressure washing and specialized surface cleaners, our team safely removes gum, residue, and bacteria from concrete, tile, and brick — restoring clean, attractive surfaces without causing damage.
We don’t just wash — we restore. Our process includes heat-assisted gum removal, surface sanitization, and eco-friendly wastewater recovery, ensuring every walkway or storefront is left spotless and compliant with Bay Area environmental standards.
Whether you manage a retail center, restaurant, or public plaza, routine sidewalk and gum removal cleaning keeps your property clean, safe, and welcoming for every visitor.
