PRESSURE WASHING

CORE CLEANING METHODOLOGIES

SOFT WASHING: USES LOW WATER PRESSURE WITH BIODEGRADABLE CLEANING SOLUTIONS TO SAFELY REMOVE MOLD, ALGAE, AND MILDEW FROM DELICATE SURFACES LIKE ROOFS, STUCCO, AND VINYL SIDING.
POWER WASHING: EMPLOYS HIGH-PRESSURE HOT WATER TO TACKLE TOUGH, GREASY STAINS, OIL, AND HEAVY DIRT ON HARD SURFACES SUCH AS CONCRETE, BRICK, AND HEAVILY TRAFFICKED AREAS.
HIGH-PRESSURE WASHING: UTILIZES HIGH-PRESSURE COLD WATER, TYPICALLY IN THE 2,000–4,000 PSI RANGE, FOR DURABLE SURFACES LIKE CONCRETE AND BRICK WHERE HOT WATER IS NOT REQUIRED.
SURFACE CLEANING: INVOLVES A SPECIALIZED ATTACHMENT WITH ROTATING JETS THAT CLEAN LARGE, FLAT SURFACES SUCH AS DRIVEWAYS, SIDEWALKS, AND PATIOS EVENLY AND EFFICIENTLY, REDUCING STREAKING.
PRE-TREATMENT: APPLIES A SPECIFIC CLEANING SOLUTION OR DETERGENT TO THE SURFACE BEFORE WASHING TO BREAK DOWN STAINS AND ORGANIC GROWTH, MAKING THEM EASIER TO REMOVE.
OVERLAPPING PASSES: MOVING THE SPRAY WAND IN STEADY, OVERLAPPING STROKES PREVENTS UNEVEN CLEANING AND STREAKING, ENSURING THE ENTIRE AREA IS CLEANED THOROUGHLY.
UP-TO-DOWN RINSING: TO PREVENT STREAKS AND AVOID RE-CLEANING, APPLYING DETERGENT FROM THE BOTTOM UP AND RINSING FROM THE TOP DOWN IS RECOMMENDED.
NOZZLE SELECTION: USING THE CORRECT NOZZLE IS CRUCIAL FOR OPTIMAL RESULTS. DIFFERENT NOZZLES PROVIDE VARYING SPRAY PATTERNS AND PRESSURES, FROM A NARROW, INTENSE STREAM FOR TOUGH SPOTS TO A WIDE FAN FOR GENTLER RINSING.

SURFACE-SPECIFIC EXPERTISE

BRICK

CONCRETE

TO PRESSURE WASH BRICK, YOU MUST USE A GENTLE, LOW-PRESSURE METHOD TO AVOID DAMAGING THE BRICKS OR MORTAR JOINTS.

CONCRETE

KNOWLEDGEABLE PROFESSIONALS APPLY THE RIGHT COMBINATION OF PRESSURE AND PRETREATMENTS, LIKE DEGREASERS FOR OIL STAINS, TO EFFECTIVELY CLEAN CONCRETE WITHOUT CAUSING DAMAGE.

FENCES

CONCRETE

ROOFING

FOR PROPER FENCE CLEANING, A PRESSURE WASHING METHOD REQUIRES PREPARATION, CAREFUL APPLICATION OF CLEANING SOLUTIONS, AND A GENTLE RINSE, WITH THE SPECIFIC SETTINGS AND TECHNIQUES DEPENDING ON THE FENCE MATERIAL

ROOFING

SIDING (VINYL AND ALUMINUM)

ROOFING

SOFT WASHING WITH ALGECIDES IS THE CORRECT METHOD FOR ASPHALT SHINGLE ROOFS, AS RECOMMENDED BY THE ASPHALT ROOFING MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION (ARMA). HIGH PRESSURE CAN CAUSE PREMATURE WEAR AND VOID WARRANTIES.

SIDING (VINYL AND ALUMINUM)

EXPERTISE INVOLVES USING A SOFT WASHING TECHNIQUE WITH AN ALGAECIDE TO KILL ORGANIC GROWTH, FOLLOWED BY A LOW-PRESSURE RINSE. THIS PREVENTS DAMAGE AND STREAKING, WHICH CAN OCCUR WITH HIGH-PRESSURE METHODS. THE ALGAECIDE IN THE CLEANING SOLUTION TARGETS AND KILLS MOLD, MILDEW, AND ALGAE AT THEIR ROOTS, ENSURING A LONGER-LASTING CLEAN.

WOOD DECKS

SIDING (VINYL AND ALUMINUM)

TO PRESSURE WASH A WOOD DECK, YOU MUST FOLLOW A MULTI-STEP METHOD TO AVOID DAMAGING THE WOOD

. YOU NEED TO PREPARE THE AREA, APPLY A GENTLE DECK CLEANER, USE A LOW-PRESSURE SETTING WITH A WIDE-FAN NOZZLE, AND RINSE PROPERLY.

CHEMISTRY KNOWLEDGE

EQUIPMENT CALIBRATION

AN UNDERSTANDING OF WHICH CLEANING SOLUTIONS ARE MOST EFFECTIVE AND SAFE FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF STAINS AND SURFACES IS CRITICAL. THIS INCLUDES USING NEUTRALIZERS TO BALANCE pH LEVELS AND PROTECT SURROUNDING VEGETATION.

EQUIPMENT CALIBRATION

EQUIPMENT CALIBRATION FOR PRESSURE WASHING INVOLVES CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE CHEMICAL INJECTION RATE, THE MACHINE'S OPERATING PRESSURE (PSI), AND THE WATER FLOW RATE (GPM). REGULAR CALIBRATION ENSURES SAFETY, EFFECTIVENESS, AND CONSISTENCY IN CLEANING RESULTS, WHILE ALSO HELPING TO MAINTAIN THE EQUIPMENT AND PREVENT DAMAGE TO SURFACES.

SAFETY PROTOCOLS

PREPARATION AND EXECUTION

TO PRESSURE WASH SAFELY, ALWAYS WEAR PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE) LIKE GOGGLES, GLOVES, AND CLOSED-TOE SHOES, AND READ THE EQUIPMENT MANUAL FIRST [0]. CLEAR THE WORK AREA OF DEBRIS AND HAZARDS, USE THE CORRECT NOZZLE AND PRESSURE FOR THE SURFACE, MAINTAIN A FIRM GRIP AND STABLE FOOTING, AND NEVER POINT THE WAND AT PEOPLE OR PETS [0]. BE CAUTIOUS OF ELECTRICAL SAFETY WITH ELECTRIC MODELS AND USE PROPER VENTILATION FOR GAS MODELS [0]. AFTER USE, ENSURE ALL EQUIPMENT IS OFF AND PROPERLY STORED

PREPARATION AND EXECUTION

TO PRESSURE WASH EFFECTIVELY:

PREPARATION:

CLEAR THE AREA.
COVER NEARBY PLANTS.
SEAL GAPS.
SECURE LOOSE ITEMS.

EXECUTION:

SELECT THE CORRECT NOZZLE FOR THE SURFACE.
TEST A HIDDEN SPOT.
APPLY DETERGENT BOTTOM-UP AND LET IT DWELL.
RINSE TOP-DOWN WITH CONSISTENT, OVERLAPPING STROKES.
