Pressure washing is a method often used to remove the most difficult grime and grit from the different types of surfaces and get your property looking pristine. Before deciding on whether or not you want to use power washing services, home and business owners should recognize the various reasons it can be beneficial, the best ways in which they can be used, and how it works. That’s why we’re here. We answer some of the common questions so those who are considering our pressure washing services.
What Is Pressure Washing and How Does It Work?
This is a method that is often used when individuals have already tried nearly everything to get the best possible clean. People try the simple method such as soap and water. You may have tried using all the elbow grease possible, or even store-bought chemical cleaners, but nothing seems to working. What do you do next?
In these situations, a pressure washer is most often the answer because it does what you can’t do. You utilize the water from a regular tap and a pump pushes the water through the machine at a high velocity and out of the hose. This pressurized water is what removes the trouble from your property.
What Are Pressure Washers Used For?
There are many different parts of a home or business that can benefit from the use of a pressure washer. This includes, but is not limited to the following:
• Residential Siding and Windows: The outsides of our homes take a beating when it comes to bad weather and we don’t often think of the siding and outside of the windows when cleaning. This allows heavy amounts of dirt and grime to build up, requiring more than just a normal clean. Our power washing professionals can accommodate your needs.
• Residential Decks and Fences: You may not recognize the need for residential pressure washing on your deck or fence until you actually do it. Some homeowners just expect these parts of their home to get dirty and they fail to give it a second thought. When they do finally give it the deep cleaning, the difference is dramatic.
• Residential Driveways and Sidewalks: These are common areas for chewing gum, mud, dirt, and more to build up and create a problem. This makes cleaning it harder for just the average situation and pressurized options may be necessary.
• Residential Roofs: Have you ever looked at your roof just to see how much dirt has built up? Then, when it rains, the dirt turns to mud. It dries up, becomes more difficult to clean, and just sits there. Residential pressure washing can help take care of this.
• Commercial Building Exteriors: Unfortunately, not everyone wants to take care of commercial buildings the way that business owners do. Some individuals even vandalize these surfaces with graffiti. The pressurized water can help remove loose paint from surfaces.
• Commercial Concrete and Asphalt: Similar to the exterior of businesses, concrete and asphalt on commercial properties are common targets for those who do graffiti or throw their gum on the floor. It can be difficult to remove this with just a standard wash.
• Commercial Fleet and Heavy Machinery: These items are used time after time and go without real cleanings for months or even years. They often only get a wipe down, meaning not everything is getting the love it deserves and it could lead to real problems.
Is It Similar to Power Washing? What are the Differences?
When people think of the complexities of these powerful machines, they often wonder how different they really are. The truth of the matter is, they’re not very different at all. They both use pressurized water and are ideal for cleaning many different surfaces. The minor difference, though, is that power washers use heated water and are typically the more heavy-duty option, while pressure washers don’t use heated water.
They’re equally beneficial in how much they can help the user, but some applications are more suited for one over the other. For instance, if you’re at home trying to clean things like a brick wall, wooden fence, concrete patio, or masonry work, a pressure washer may be the best option.
However, for more serious jobs that require a little extra such as large commercial areas, long driveways, or any other situation where you want to be done faster, power washing is the better option because the heated water helps to loosen up the dirt much easier than regular water.
Should I Hire Pressure Washing Professionals?
You may make the decision to try and do the job yourself, but oftentimes, home and business owners are not sure which option is better and what machine to use. Even worse, they may not be aware of how to actually go about the job and they could end up doing more harm than good.
