LBC Exterior Clean's method of removing chewing gum from pavements

We use two proven methods. Our backpack Gum Buster system heats a specialist removal solution to steam at the tip of the wand, combined with wire-brush agitation — it’s quiet, discreet and safe to use alongside pedestrians, with no need to cordon off the area.

For larger areas, our hot pressure washing and steam cleaning rigs clear gum at roughly one piece every 2–3 seconds; these do require the working area to be cordoned off for public safety.

On average, steam cleaning removes gum at one piece every 2–3 seconds; the backpack system works at one piece every 7–10 seconds but keeps the area open to the public throughout.

FAQ's

Do you need to close the pavement?

Only for hot pressure washing. The backpack system works safely alongside pedestrians, which is why BIDs and shopping centres favour it during trading hours.

Can you work out of hours?

Yes — early morning and night works are routine for high-footfall locations such as transport hubs and retail frontages.

Will it damage the paving?

No. Steam-based removal is non-abrasive and safe on concrete, York stone, granite and block paving.

How is it priced?

By area and gum density, following a free site assessment. One-off deep cleans and scheduled maintenance programmes are both available.
