If you're an entrepreneur, you know how important image is for your brand and business. In many cases, you have one chance to make an excellent first impression. If your warehouse, apartment complex, or storefront is grimy and unattractive, chances are you're leaving money on the table. Think of it from the customer's standpoint: If a business owner doesn't take the time to clean walkways and other high-traffic areas around their location, they probably won't invest time and money into selling a great product.
Every building, entryway, parking lot, walking path, or storefront represents a chance for your business to impress customers. With commercial pressure washing, your business is seen as welcoming, orderly, and detail-oriented. That's why commercial pressure washing in Ladson, SC, is so crucial when it comes to image, upkeep, and maintenance.
Much like you would clean the interior of your building, your exterior needs to be cleaned too. Failing to do so means making less money and potentially losing long-term customer relationships.

Keeping the exterior surfaces of your business clean and tidy is a benefit all on its own, but there are many more advantages of commercial pressure washing to consider. Here are just a few:
Especially in terms of selling and buying real estate, commercial pressure washing can boost your property's value. Our commercial services are excellent for curb appeal, but if you keep a record of our pressure washing, window cleaning, and building washing services, your property value may go up, adding value to your investment over time.
Business owners and property managers are quick to replace what they think are unusable items with new ones. However, many times, items like signs, awnings, and roof shingles just need a good professional cleaning. Instead of replacing high-dollar items, call Tidal South. Our exterior cleaning services for businesses are often much cheaper than buying brand-new products.
Most business owners would agree that their employees and customers deserve a healthy, clean place to work and shop. Our cleaning and pressure washing services help remove algae, mold, pollen, grease, and mildew from your commercial building's exterior. That way, your patrons and employees are happy, and you can avoid unflattering health inspection reports.
It's critical for business owners and property managers to maintain a great reputation. If the front entrance to your business is dilapidated and filthy, your customers may assume that management has âchecked out." This often raises questions about the business owner and whether or not they genuinely care for their customers. Just like registers and bathrooms, your property's exterior features should also be clean.
This is especially true for food service businesses. Oil spills, food splatters, and unsightly sidewalks aren't just ugly. They can be dangerous. All it takes is one slip-and-fall accident to ruin your good name and cost your business untold amounts of money in court.
Free EstimateOwning or managing an apartment complex or condominium community is a time-consuming, multi-faceted task filled with stress and high demands. You're not just dealing with your tenant's ever-changing issues - you must beautify and maintain the property to keep it functional and safe. After all, no apartment owner wants to live in a dilapidated, dirty complex. With so many moving parts, it makes sense to bring in professionals who can handle your pressure washing needs while working with your schedule.

Property managers and apartment complex owners choose Tidal South for their pressure washing needs because we prioritize the following:

Tidal South Pressure Washing is here to serve you with streamlined, efficient pressure washing services that keep tenants happy.
Here are just a few surprising benefits of apartment complex pressure washing:
If you want to attract new residents to your apartment complex, make a great first impression. One of the best ways to do that is with professional pressure washing. As an owner or landlord, you need to show future residents how beautiful their soon-to-be community is. That's true even if you're not charging a lot for rent. Nobody wants to live in a filthy-looking apartment complex.
As a property manager or landlord, you must abide by your tenant's rights. You have to provide them with a habitable place to live. As such, you must keep your apartment complex clean and free of health hazards like mildew and mold. To avoid liability and litigious action, include pressure washing from Tidal South on your maintenance checklist.
Even the most well-built apartment buildings will suffer from wear and tear with time. Exposure to the elements, especially in areas with a lot of rain and snow, may cause your complex to degrade. When pollutants fester, it accelerates that degradation. By getting rid of those pollutants with pressure washing, you can extend your property's lifespan.
Though Tidal South Pressure leads the field in commercial pressure washing, we're also proud to offer premium pressure washing for homeowners too.

Some of the most popular residential pressure washing services we offer include:
A lot of homeowners believe they can spray down their home with a hose and get the same effects as pressure washing. While DIY cleaning methods are great for minor issues, residential pressure washing is much more comprehensive and effective. It's about more than removing a little dirt from your siding or your gutters.
Here are a few of the most common benefits homeowners enjoy when they use Tidal South for their pressure washing:
So you've got mold or moss growing on your home's exteriors. What's the big deal? As it turns out, grime, moss, dirt, and other built-up substances can cause corrosion, running your home's exterior surfaces. When left unaddressed, that corrosion can seep into the materials under your concrete sealant or paint, like the wood on your deck. Substances like dirt also tend to accumulate in the small crevices that every home has. Out of reach of the wind and rain, this type of grime can add up for years until it becomes a bacterial breeding ground. Tidal South's residential pressure washing removes dirt, grime, and mold while hitting those impossible-to-reach crevices that damage your home.
When you think about all the damage that pressure washing prevents, it makes sense that you'll be saving money when you hire Tidal South. Having your home pressure washed regularly is usually less expensive than the repairs you'll need to pay for if you were to avoid keeping your property clean.
As you probably know, you can't paint over a dirty surface. If you're thinking about applying a new coat of paint to your home or even adding a deck or new room, pressure wash first. Pressurized washing helps clean your surfaces and can remove peeling paint and other defects that may affect the surface you're working on.
Keeping your home or business looking its best is a great feeling. But pressure washing goes beyond aesthetics. It protects your property from unnecessary damage, keeps your family or employees happy and safe, and even saves money, time, and stress.
Remember - a thorough pressure wash isn't an extravagance. It's a necessity. Let the friendly professionals at Tidal South Pressure Washing handle the hard work for you. Our goal is your 100% satisfaction, whether you're tending to your home or protecting your business.

LADSON, S.C. (WCBD)- The owner of several convenience stores in the Lowcountry and two of the stores’ operators are collectively facing more than a dozen tax-related charges.
Agents with the South Carolina Department of Revenue (SCDOR) arrested Naglaa Attwa, 37, of Ladson, and charged her with six counts of tax evasion and two counts of conspiracy.
Attwa is the owner of Adam’s Market in Berkeley County and Zone Mart in Charleston County.
The operator of Adam’s Market, 39-year-old Saif Tahat, was also arrested and charged with three counts of assisting in the false preparation of a return and one count of conspiracy. The operator of Zone Mart, 42-year-old Islam Moursy, faces the same charges.
Attwa and two co-defendants reported a total of $959,842 for the businesses in taxable income between 2019 and 2021, but an investigation found sales actually totaled nearly $2.6 million, according to SCDOR.
Investigators said the group evaded at least $1.63 million in taxable sales and owes the state at least $143,148 in sales tax.
“The SCDOR is committed to the fair administration of tax laws,” officials wrote in a news release. “By taking enforcement action against noncompliant taxpayers, the Department seeks to prevent unfairly increasing the tax burden on those who do comply.”
According to an affidavit, Attwa is listed as the owner of the stores because “she was the only legal citizen” in the group and the only one without felonies, which would have prevented the stores from obtaining an alcohol license.
But, investigators allege Attwa conspired with co-defendants to conceal her ownership, noting “she was not involved in the operations other than to provide figures to her accountant that were sent to her.”
Attwa faces up to five years in prison and a $10,000 fine per count of tax evasion if convicted. Tahat and Moursy each face up to five years in prison and a $500 fine per count of assisting the false preparation of a return.
All three defendants face up to five years and a $5,000 fine for each count of conspiracy.

Located at the Lowcountry Rapid Transit lines end, the new location for the proposed park and ride will be at the Exchange Park Fairgrounds in Ladson.
LADSON, S.C. (WCSC) - The Berkeley-Charleston-Dorchester Council of Governments held a public open house Tuesday in Ladson to provide new updates and hear from members of the community on the Lowcountry Rapid Transit.
Located at the Lowcountry Rapid Transit lines end, the new location for the proposed park and ride will be at the Exchange Park Fairgrounds in Ladson.
The more than 21-mile transit plan is to connect downtown Charleston to the Exchange Park Fairgrounds, where parking for 280 cars will be available.
The Berkeley-Charleston-Dorchester Council of Governments says the location of the park and ride system will be a quick and convenient station for those traveling from surrounding areas to downtown.
“This park and ride will continue to be a critical piece, whether this was the middle line will continue to Summerville or even beyond, folks will still have to drive to this location and park to get on the dedicated guideway,” Lowcountry Rapid Transit Project Manager, Sharon Hollis, says. “But we can get them off of Highway 26, and onto the system to perhaps maybe alleviate some congestion that way.”
The park and ride location was adjusted from the northern end line of downtown Summerville to Exchange Park.
With transit lines ending in Ladson in the current plan, some community members are asking for the routes to be extended to Summerville.
“This needs to go all the way to Summerville, this system has to work,” Best Friends of Lowcountry Transit Executive Director, William Hamilton, says. “There are 300,000 or 400,000 more people coming to our area, there is no possible way, nor is there anything close to the funds necessary to build the necessary roads.
“Congestion will become intolerable unless there are significant efforts made to take some of the burden off of the road system,” he adds.
Hollis says a lot of factors would play into an extension, including funding and demand from those in the area who would use it.
“As we start to build, transit demand from Summerville to this location, we’ll start to have the ability to do that more permanent infrastructure to put the buses and dedicated lane,” she says. “It’s a step process, and we’re just we’re a little further behind than that one.”
Back in March, the Lowcountry Rapid Transit System Project was awarded $100 million in President Biden’s 2024 budget.
“This is the very core of our community; this should remove some of the burden that is on our existing roads, but people need to understand this does not mean that the congestion we have now will disappear,” Hamilton says.
The requested federal funding represents 60% of the project cost, or about $375 million. The anticipated local funding from Charleston County represents 40% of the project cost, or about $250 million.
The Lowcountry Rapid Transit is currently at the halfway mark of the 12-year process with construction expected to begin in 2026.

A 3-year-old vanished from an apartment complex before being found at the bottom of a retention pond, South Carolina officials said.
The toddler was pulled from the water with “no signs of life” and was pronounced dead at the scene, according to the Dorchester County sheriff’s and coroner’s offices.
The child was identified in a news release as John Tyheem Williams Jr.
Deputies said they responded to a report of a missing toddler at about noon on Friday, Sept. 8. The child was last seen at an apartment complex in the Ladson area, roughly 20 miles northwest of Charleston.
A deputy reported that someone found an iPod in a retention pond that might have belonged to the 3-year-old. Then, the sheriff’s office started working with other agencies to search the water for the missing child, according to an incident report.
At about 1 p.m., a diver found the child “approximately 15-20 feet from the bank in about 10-12 feet of water.” The toddler’s body was taken to the coroner’s office, where an autopsy was scheduled, according to officials.
Deputies in a Sept. 8 email said they were investigating the child’s apparent drowning death along with the coroner’s office and the S.C. Law Enforcement Division.
At least 4,000 people die from drowning every year in the U.S., according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and drowning is a leading cause of death for children.
Some factors can make drowning more likely, including not knowing how to swim, a lack of close supervision, not wearing a life jacket and drinking alcohol while recreating near or in water.
The National Drowning Prevention Alliance said there are tips to help keep you safe in the water, including checking local weather conditions, never swimming alone and choosing the right equipment.
“Don’t hesitate to get out of the water if something doesn’t feel right,” the group said on its website. “Whether it’s that the current is getting rough, rain has started to fall, or your body is just not responding like you would like it to due to fatigue or muscle cramps, then just leave and return to the water another day. It’s always a good thing to trust your instincts.”

OSHA officials have shared their investigative findings on what they believe Pegasus Steel failed to do.
CHARLESTON COUNTY, S.C. (WCSC) - More than six months after a woman was crushed to death at a Ladson business, officials with the South Carolina Occupation Safety and Health Administration have shared their investigative findings on what they believe the business failed to do.
Jessica Birkmire, 53, died at Pegasus Steel in Ladson on Jan. 12 after a large, steel door closed on her, crushing her arm and head, according to the Charleston County Coroner.
OSHA’s investigative report says Birkmire was preparing to unload materials at a large bay door when she reached through a small gap to click the ‘open’ button. She instead clicked the ‘close’ button, and the door shut on Birkmire.
OSHA details how Pegasus Steel did not conduct a ‘job hazard analysis,’ and despite making references to these job inspections, they provided no documentation to prove these risk assessments had been completed.
They say their inspection revealed conditions they believe to be in violation of state health and safety laws, specifically Code 41-15-210, which states “each employer shall furnish to his employees employment and a place of employment which are free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm to his employees.”
The report states this is a ‘serious’ violation.
OSHA’s report goes on to say there is, however, a memo from management sent out last summer that explains how employees were not authorized to walk through the bay doors, according to the report. During investigative interviews, OSHA found employees were routinely walking through these doors, and the report states no disciplinary action was taken.
The Chief Human Resources Officer for Pegasus Steel said in an interview with OSHA officials that Birkmire broke safety codes at the business when she reached through the bay door. The report also details how Birkmire was “headstrong” and that management had told her in the past to “not place her body in places that can hurt her.”
OSHA says the company also should have had sensors in place to detect objects in the door’s path.
OSHA provided Pegasus Steel with tips on how to keep the door from closing on people again including installing sensors. The business is also now ordered to pay a penalty of $3,500.
Officials said in the report they’re currently working on relocating those control buttons that Birkmire pushed. The business did not respond to a request for comment.
