important?<\/h2>\n<p>Balcony cleaning is essential to keep outdoor living clean and inviting.<br \/>\n <strong>Dirt, moss<\/strong> and <strong>deposits<\/strong> accumulate <strong>on all surfaces<\/strong> due to constant weathering and use.<br \/>\nA clean balcony not only makes for a pleasant living environment, but<strong> also extends the life of<\/strong> the balcony materials.  <\/p>\n<h2>The best tips for a clean balcony<\/h2>\n<p>To ensure a clean balcony, you should <strong>clean it regularly <\/strong>.<br \/>\nA thorough spring clean is particularly important, as a lot of dirt can accumulate during the winter.<br \/>\nUse simple <strong>household remedies<\/strong> such as to remove coarser dirt.<br \/>\nYou can use a <strong>steam cleaner<\/strong> to effectively remove <strong>deep-seated<\/strong> <strong>dirt<\/strong> such as moss and algae.   <\/p>\n<h2>Proper prevention makes cleaning much easier<\/h2>\n<p>Cleaning the balcony can be very tedious, which is why you should take the appropriate precautions.<br \/>\nThis includes impregnation or sealing after successful deep cleaning.<br \/>\nBy impregnating or sealing, you create a protective layer that repels water and dirt so that dirt no longer adheres and the &#8220;easy-to-clean effect&#8221; is created.<br \/>\nThis means that dirt can be removed with a little water and a very soft brush.   <\/p>\n<p>Our sealants can be used to impregnate floor materials such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.versiegelung24.com\/holzversiegelung\/\">wood<\/a> or <a

liquid<\/li>\n<li>Cleaning agents (you should find out in advance which agent is the right one for your application).<\/li>\n<li>Steam cleaner<\/li>\n<li>Damp cloth<\/li>\n<li>Bucket<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Clear the balcony of balcony furniture, plants and any other furnishings.<br \/>\nThis should either be stored in a safe place or cleaned as well. <\/p>\n<h2>Clean the balcony floor carefully<\/h2>\n<p>The balcony floor is often the dirtiest and therefore needs special attention.<br \/>\nThere are different types of balcony flooring, which should be cleaned differently depending on the material. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Note: Regardless of which cleaning agent or accessory you choose, you should always test the equipment on an inconspicuous area first.<br \/>\nEvery surface can have a different composition and react differently to the agents.<br \/>\nYou should also follow the manufacturer&#8217;s instructions without exception and seek sufficient advice.  <\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Stone and tiled floors<\/h3>\n<p>Use a <strong>scrubbing brush with water and washing-up liquid<\/strong> to remove dirt and deposits <strong>.<\/strong><br

Use special wood cleaners and a <strong>soft brush.<\/strong> It is important that the surface is not damaged.<br \/>\nLeave the cleaner to work and then rinse with clean water.
