Why You Should Hire a Pressure Washer
Posted on August 14, 2022
One of the best ways to prep surfaces for painting, or for general cleaning is to use a pressure washer to blast away accumulated dirt and grime. Bringing in a power washer could be the answer to making your home’s exterior beautiful again. Here are some things to know before you select a professional. Looking at power washing projects before/after the work is one of our favorite things, the results are usually immediately apparent and it’s very satisfying to see the results.
What is power washing?
Power washing is the use of a high-pressure water stream to blast stains and dirt from outdoor surfaces. The pressure and temperature combined remove stuck-on materials from decks, patios, driveways, and more.
Can I do it myself?
Renting equipment from the local big box store is always an option. Power washing can be a bit of an art. Injuries to people and property are hard to avoid for the novice. Scars to wood and broken windows are the least traumatic outcomes of a wild washer.
How to pick a pro?
Ask your professional pressure washer questions. Request information on the system and cleaners they use in a typical job like yours.
What is a low-pressure wash?
Low-pressure wash, also known as soft wash, is a method of cleaning that uses less pressure and a cleaning solution. Be wary of any answer that includes bleach.
