Pressure Washing Vs. Soft Washing
Choosing between pressure washing and soft washing can affect both the outcome and the longevity of your surfaces.
Understanding Pressure Washing
Pressure washing uses high-pressure water spray to remove dirt, grime, and other build-ups from surfaces. It's effective for durable materials like concrete, brick, and metal. The power behind pressure washing makes it ideal for:
- Driveways and sidewalks: These are where tough stains and heavy dirt accumulation need blasting away.
- Exterior walls: For removing loose paint or deep-seated grime.
However, the force can be too much for softer or more delicate materials, potentially causing damage.
The Soft Washing Approach
Soft washing, on the other hand, employs a lower pressure water spray combined with specialized cleaning solutions to gently clean surfaces. This method is best for:
- Roof and siding: Where high pressure could damage shingles or siding materials.
- Wooden decks: To clean without stripping away wood fibers or finish.
Soft washing treats surfaces to kill mold, algae, and bacteria, providing a long-lasting clean with less risk of damage.
While pressure washing offers immediate, visible results on hard surfaces, soft washing provides a gentle, thorough clean for more delicate areas.
Benefits of Pressure Washing for Your Home's Exterior
Pressure washing your home's exterior isn't just about keeping up appearances. Here's why you should consider regular pressure washing:
A clean exterior can dramatically improve your home’s look, making it stand out in your neighborhood or even increasing its market value if you’re looking to sell.
Dirt, grime, mold, and mildew can degrade your home’s materials over time. Pressure washing removes these harmful substances, preventing rot, decay, and premature aging of your home’s exterior.
By eliminating mold, mildew, and algae, pressure washing reduces potential allergens and health hazards for you and your family.
If you’re planning to paint or stain your deck, fence, or home exterior, pressure washing is the perfect prep step for better adhesion and a smoother finish.
Regular cleaning can extend the life of your siding, deck, and driveway, potentially saving you from costly repairs.
After your home has been pressure washed, you'll see an immediate aesthetic improvement and enjoy the long-term benefits of a healthier living environment
Maintaining Your Property After Power Washing
After you've invested in power washing your property, maintaining that fresh, clean look requires ongoing care. Here's how you can keep your home's exterior in top condition:
Set up a routine cleaning schedule. Depending on your environment, an annual or bi-annual power washing might be necessary. Areas exposed to more dirt or moisture might need more frequent attention.
Apply sealants to decks, driveways, and other surfaces to protect against water, UV rays, and stains. Post-washing is the ideal time for painting or staining wood surfaces. A clean surface allows for better adhesion and a more durable finish.
Regularly inspect your property for signs of dirt build-up, mold, or mildew. Early detection allows for spot cleaning, which can prevent the need for another full-scale power washing session too soon. Use a soft brush or a low-pressure wash for minor touch-ups.
Adjust your landscaping to prevent excessive dirt and debris from accumulating on your cleaned surfaces. Proper drainage and strategic plant placement can reduce splash-back and dirt accumulation.
Regular cleaning can extend the life of your siding, deck, and driveway, potentially saving you from costly repairs.
