About Us
Renew Crew started out as Wood ReNew back in March of 1993, when founder, Stan Krempges, was a partner in a fence installation business. His clients needed a way to keep their fences, decks and other outdoor structures clean and protected. After extensive research, Stan developed an eco-friendly wood cleaner. This cleaner is a thick foam that clings to vertical surfaces better, allowing it to soak into the wood to emulsify and remove embedded dirt, mold and mildew.
Spurred on by that success, Stan continued to work with leading coatings chemists to develop an equally eco-friendly protectant that would permeate the wood for a deep seal against damaging moisture, dirt buildup and UV rays. The special polymers not only provided great protection, but they also created an extremely attractive finish that showed off the natural luster and wood grain.
In 2012, Wood ReNew was acquired by Outdoor Living Brands. Outdoor Living Brands immediately diversified the business with the addition of expanded services including the cleaning and sealing siding, gutters, windows, pavers, concrete and more. Concurrent with the rollout of the additional services, Wood ReNew was rebranded to Renew Crew.
Why Us?
Our process is simple, but it can transform any outdoor spaces and, more importantly, your future. As a Renew Crew franchisee, you will follow our three-step process to clean, protect and restore all outdoor surfaces as you pursue your personal career, lifestyle and financial goals:
- Pre-Soak Foam – Our proprietary eco-friendly foam cleaner is applied to the surface, loosening embedded dirt, grime, and, if a wood surface, dead wood fibers.
- Power Clean – Surfaces are rinsed with a low pressure rinse, washing away debris, restoring the original appeal of the deck, patio, walkway, driveway or other outdoor surface.
- Protective Finish – An eco-friendly protectant is applied to seal the pores of the surface and keep surfaces looking great longer. These proprietary polymers repel the elements including UV rays.
- Crew Coat - Specialized coatings that can be applied to any property, residential or commercial that protects concrete surfaces.
How Is Renew Crew Different?
When it comes to outdoor care, some pressure washing companies utilize bleach and chlorine-based solutions or use high-pressure washing that can etch and gouge surfaces or cut through landscaped greenery. These harsh materials and tactics can damage customers’ surfaces and nearby landscape material while accelerating their need to replace these materials.
Renew Crew’s eco-friendly cleaning solutions kill mold and mildew without harsh chlorines that can bleach your exterior surfaces and damage your plants.
Professionalism and Experience
With over 15 years experience and over 6 million square feet of outdoor surfaces cleaned, Renew Crew is far, far more than the typical pressure washing company, namely, we are the leaders in environmentally-friendly outdoor surface cleaning. From our professional looking marketing materials and clean trucks to friendly staff and quality work, our franchisees strive to provide world-class customer service to every client.
