Concrete Cleaning: How Are Enzymatic Cleaners Used?
Enzymatic cleaning is a powerful method we use at California Clean and Seal to treat stained concrete surfaces. These enzymes break down organic substances—like grease, oils, and protein—into smaller, manageable compounds. This method is safe for concrete surfaces and highly effective in both commercial and residential settings throughout San Diego County.
What Makes Enzymatic Cleaning Unique?
Unlike harsh chemical solutions, enzymes are protein-based compounds that speed up natural breakdown processes. While enzymes aren’t living organisms, they support microbes by making organic debris easier to digest. That’s why we use bioactive products combining microbes and enzymes—to enhance deep cleaning without damaging your hardscape.
How Microbes Work on Stained Concrete
Microbial cleaning solutions contain beneficial bacteria that feed on oil, grease, and other organic waste. These microbes literally eat the contaminants and release harmless byproducts—typically water and carbon dioxide. California Clean and Seal uses eco-safe, microbe-based products to break down stubborn oil stains on surfaces like stamped concrete. Unlike chemical methods, this natural approach is safer for your yard and better for the environment.
Other companies often rely on harmful chemical cleaners, but we prioritize non-toxic alternatives. In tough cases where oil penetrates deep into concrete, bioremediation with microbes can break it down at the root level.
What Is Bioremediation in Concrete Cleaning?
Bioremediation is the process of using live organisms—like bacteria and fungi—to neutralize or remove contaminants. These microbes consume pollutants, turning them into safe byproducts. Whether applied naturally or with engineered strains, this process helps clean your concrete without introducing hazardous substances.
