Pressure washing uses high-pressure water (2000-4000 PSI) to remove dirt, algae, mold, chewing gum, and other tough stains from surfaces. It's ideal for cleaning concrete driveways, sidewalks, curbs, patios, and other hard surfaces. However, high-pressure water should never be used on brittle or soft surfaces, and especially not on glass or roofs.

Soft washing, on the other hand, uses much lower pressure water (75-800 PSI) combined with various chemical cleaning solutions to remove dirt, algae, mold, and other tough stains without damaging the surface or material. Soft washing is perfect for roofs, windows, exterior building siding, stained wood, and other delicate surfaces.

Both methods are effective for different types of cleaning needs, and we ensure to use the right technique for your specific situation to achieve the best results without causing any damage.

To ensure a smooth and efficient cleaning process, please follow these preparation steps:

• Remove Objects: Ensure there are no objects such as furniture, plants, or other movable items on or near the surface being cleaned.
• Clear the Driveway: For driveway cleanings, make sure all vehicles are removed and the garage door is shut, if applicable.
• Keep Pets and Children Away: Do not have any pets, children, or other guests enter the cleaning area during the time of service.
• Ensure Water Availability: Make sure that water service is available and ready for use.
• Presence Not Required: For the majority of services, you are not required to be present at the time of service.

Following these steps helps us provide you with the best possible service, efficiently and safely.

You can use your driveway, pool deck, patio, sidewalk, and other surfaces immediately after cleaning. However, for the best results, we recommend waiting until the surfaces are completely dry. If any surface has been sealed, it will take 24 to 48 hours to cure. During this time, you should avoid walking or driving on it to ensure optimal results.

Due to the curing process of concrete, we recommend waiting at least one year before pressure washing new concrete. For sealing, it's best to wait at least 3 months. However, if needed, we can perform a soft wash on the concrete to prevent any etching or other permanent damage to your new concrete.

While we cannot guarantee that every stain will be completely removed, we use specialized chemical cleaning solutions and commercial-grade equipment designed to effectively eliminate or significantly fade stains caused by oil, rust, graffiti, and other substances. Our expertise and advanced tools allow us to tackle even the toughest stains with impressive results.

The black streaks you see on your roof, and other roofs as you drive down the road, are caused by a type of algae known as gloeocapsa magma. While these streaks are primarily a cosmetic issue, the algae is a living organism that retains water whenever it rains. This can lead to further growth of algae, moss, and even mold, potentially causing water damage to your roof, underlayment, and the structure of your property. Regular cleaning can help prevent these issues and keep your roof in good condition.

While pressure washing involves high pressure and chemical cleaning solutions, which can pose risks such as property damage or bodily harm, we take great care to protect your home and plants. Our team uses its expertise to apply the correct cleaning solutions and pressure levels—often using low pressure where appropriate—to ensure the safety of all materials and plant life. We always recommend hiring trained professionals to ensure your property and plants are properly cared for during the cleaning process.

Yes, pressure washing can help with pest control. In addition to making your property look nice and extending its lifespan, cleaning your exterior can deter pests such as ants, cockroaches, flies, and other unwanted critters, much like cleaning your kitchen or bathroom. Regular pressure washing helps maintain a clean environment that is less attractive to pests.
