A property is the most valuable asset for most people and businesses. Keeping it clean is an easy way to keep it looking its best and to protect it from the damaging effects from harsh environments.
As a nation who prides itself on our clean, green image, we still face the reality of everyday grime building up on our exteriors, just like any other developed country. Regularly washing the exterior of your property will reduce the damaging effects this grime build-up can do to your most valuable asset, and will prolong the life of your paintwork.
A clean, fresh exterior enhances your face to the world. As a business, having a building that is neat and clean shows your customers that you care about your community and you take pride in how your neighbourhood looks.
JT Property Wash services many commercial buildings throughout New Zealand. The following testimonials are from a selection of clients and give their perspective on how JT Property Wash’s service benefits each of their businesses.
Testimonials
New World Hutt City
JT Property Wash and New World Hutt City have been doing business together since the mid ‘80s. Steven Williams, Owner operator of New World Hutt City, knows he will get a reliable and professional service from JT Property Wash, and that they help him to realise his company’s values.
“As a New Zealand owned supermarket brand, Foodstuffs puts huge value on being a family-friendly and positive part of the local community. Respecting and caring for our environment, presenting a smart, polished exterior, and having a property that is clean and tidy for our customers are all practical ways JT Property Wash helps me to live our company’s values. I like that JT Property Wash is a local, family-owned business too.”
Steven is impressed with JT Property Wash’s professional service and the way they tailor their service to suit him and his business. JT Property Wash work outside of the store’s opening hours so the customers are not inconvenienced.
“They are responsive to my business’s needs and that makes it easy for me. I remember one time we were victims of graffiti. Ray and his team didn’t mess around. They came and assessed it immediately and had it cleaned off within the same day.
“I know that I can call JT Property Wash and I’ll always get a professional and efficient response. I find that really valuable – I can trust them to do what I need them to do, freeing me up to concentrate on the other aspects of my job.”

Argosy Property Trust
Argosy Property Trust, which has a range of real estate properties in New Zealand, uses JT Property Wash to clean many of their buildings in the lower North Island.
Roger Yule, a Property Manager at Argosy Property Trust, says the cleaning is part of their maintenance programme to protect their building assets, and he believes JT Property Wash provides a very professional service.
“Buildings and roofs deteriorate over time, so regular cleaning extends the life of the surface. It’s particularly important for buildings near the sea, exposed to the coastal environment.”
“JT Property Wash does a very professional job. Ray Tomlinson has a very thorough understanding of the cleaning process, not just from his experience with the company but also because he has a background in painting. He is prepared to come on site and review the scope of works to provide the best and most economic solution. If there’s painting damage he’ll give us the right advice on how to treat the surface.”
For Roger, one thing in particular stands out about their work.
“What we really appreciate is that they respect our clients’ work spaces. The JT Property Wash team produces good work and is always polite with clients and tenants. Their operators are approachable and always leave the space looking nice and tidy when they finish.”
“JT Property Wash is an operator that we’re happy to choose and happy to recommend.”

Foodstuffs Wellington
Since 1985 JT Property Wash has worked for Foodstuffs and currently clean most of the Foodstuffs supermarkets, distribution centres and cool stores in the Lower North Island.
Mark Lash, Property Manager at Foodstuffs (Wellington) says JT Property Wash does an exceptional job, is reliable and the regular cleaning of their buildings is a vital part of Foodstuffs’ building maintenance programme.
Mark says there are two essential benefits to cleaning your building. “The first is aesthetic. If the store is cleaned thoroughly, it looks inviting and makes the customer welcome.
“The second benefit is that it’s deferred maintenance – it stops problems before they occur. Cleaning keeps grime, moss and lichen off our buildings and ultimately lengthens the life span of the paint and cladding.”
“It also ensures we maintain our warranties with our newer buildings. For example, to maintain the warranty on some of our roofs, they have to be washed regularly.”
Mark has been impressed with the level of service offered by JT Property Wash.
“They’ll show up before the store’s open to ensure there’s no disruption to our customers.”
“They do a thorough job. They clean the service yards, truck spots – those areas where you often get spills and funny products. They even clean around the big rubbish bins after doing the critical areas.
“We’re always happy with the service provided by JT Property Wash. The cleaning’s just become a regular part of our maintenance programme.”
