Time conspires to dirty and destroy all of our creations. Roofs leak, metal corrodes, and every exposed surface—vertical, horizontal, or aslant—gathers grime, soot, and stains. The result? Visual pollution!

Visual pollution falls roughly into three categories:

Natural
Weathering causes discoloration. Algae and lichen build up on pools and tanks. Crabapples, mulberries, and grass clippings stain concrete.

Artificial
Soot from factories travels through the air and builds up on nearly any exposed surface. Cars and trucks leak oil onto roads and parking lots, while their exhaust adds to the grime of the air. Paint and other coatings peel, fade, and otherwise fail.

Malicious
Man-made pollution in which someone deliberately alters the exterior or interior of a building. Graffiti is the chief example.

Every Building Requires Ongoing Maintenance
Often the leaky room or rusting safety rail mov3s to the top of the repair list, and eliminating visual pollution falls to the bottom. Sometimes the cosmetic repairs fall off the list completely. Don't let theis happen to your building.

Appearance counts! Visual pollution can have a tremendous negative impact on your bottom line. The appearance of your building will influence how customers and employees feel about you.

Tenants man not renew their leases. Employee morale and productivity suffer. Customers who visit may decide against placing an order.

Savvy owners and managers prevent such problems by regularly rejuvenating their properties. You can too. Contact Knauss today for a free, no-obligation consultation at your location.
