Raghwat Al Janoub Maintenance and Cleaning
Building facade cleaning in Rafha
Rafha is a flat settlement of villas and simple houses on desert ground, with a scorching hot summer, cool winters and little rain. Each villa has private land, a garden and a boundary wall, and facades facing different directions receive dust and sand from varying wind patterns.
Why a facade needs regular cleaning
-

The surface is protected
The wrong product costs more than the dirt it removes.
-

Access decided on site
We do not pick the access method from an office.
-

Glass stays clear
Calcium scale on glass turns into permanent etching if it is left.
-

The building keeps running
We plan the access and the working hours around how the building is used through the day, and we protect the ground, the entrances and anyone passing below.
Why the job is different in Rafha
Villas built of brick and concrete suffer rapid paint deterioration from strong winds, and the boundary wall protects only part of each villa's outer surface. The whole method is set out in the building facade cleaning overview.
-
Border winds lift fine red sand constantly
Rafha sits near the Iraqi frontier where extremely harsh winds carry fine red sand from the desert. This sand settles on exposed facades and leaves a greasy layer that resists ordinary water rinsing and needs specialist cleaners.
-
The boundary wall protects only the lower facade
Each villa sits on private land with a surrounding wall, but the wall shields only the lower sections from wind. Upper walls and roof line of the villa face the full force of wind and sand, collecting heavier dust loads than the protected lower portions.
-
Extreme heat accelerates paint degradation fast
Rafha summers are brutally hot, with sun beating down on south and west facing facades without mercy. Paint degrades rapidly from heat, wind and sand acting together, and older villas show weathering marks clearly.
What's Included
Rafha sits near the Iraqi border on very flat ground where harsh winds carry fine red sand from the desert that settles on every exposed facade.
-
Roof survey and anchor points
The roof survey includes checking all villa elevations from different directions, noting which walls face the strongest exposure.
-
Access chosen: rope or powered
Rope access is preferred here because most villas are modest height and roof access may not be safe for standing work.
-
A test patch before the whole elevation
Testing on a hidden patch of paint confirms that the products chosen will not cause further damage to aged paint.
-
Glass and curtain walling
Glass here needs special attention to remove fine sand that may have already scratched the surface.
-
Cladding and stone, pH-neutral
Paint or cladding is cleaned with gentle products to avoid removing more of the existing aged coating.
-
Ground and passers-by protected
The boundary wall and ground around the villa are protected from water, cleaners and sand that might slip during work.
