Annual Maintenance
Depending on your home’s location, you may want to consider an annual power washing of your property, including your home, garage, driveways, sidewalks, patio, and decks.

Annual pressure washing services can remove mold, mildew, grime, grease, stuck-on food, and sticky beverage spills.

Before selling your home
This is another great time to thoroughly clean your home’s exterior. This is something your realtor should be pushing to increase the value of your home! A soft wash or power washing will refresh any home’s exterior by lifting the dark shade caused by dirt and brightening paint, brick, and vinyl siding colors. If you’re about to put your house on the market, consider pressure washing services especially for brick homes that have lost their pristine look due to the accumulation of dirt inside the crevices of the brick siding. And you will be amazed at the vibrant color of your vinyl siding after power washing your home. Homes that are professionally cleaned before hitting the market will increase in value from $8k to $12k.
After ground-breaking construction
If there is any construction near your home that must break ground, then a pressure washing should be one of your first projects when the workers are done. Dirt from construction projects will go airborne and leave a fine silt on everything around. And if the construction or remodeling is on your own home, then expect the dust from cutting drywall, sawdust from wood, and all sorts of construction debris to be left behind.
Before painting or major renovations
If you’re considering a major home renovation such as new doors and windows, painting, or other projects, it may be a good idea to professionally clean and power wash the home before the workers begin. This is especially true for any work being done on the home’s facade or exterior, such as painting, vinyl siding, tuckpointing, and regrouting. When you choose pressure washing service before painting the exterior of your home, the paint will adhere better, last longer, and will it will reduce the chances of paint chipping or cracking.
