What does power washing remove?
Built-up dirt, algae, and stains, the kind a garden hose does not touch. On concrete that usually means years of tire marks and ground-in grime. After a Colorado winter it also means the sand and de-icer residue that collects on driveways and walkways.
On siding and building exteriors, power washing takes off the dust film and green growth that make a building look older than it is.
- Driveways, walkways, and patios
- Siding and building exteriors
- Storefront entrances and commercial concrete
What is the difference between power washing and pressure washing?
Both clean a surface with a high-pressure stream of water. Some contractors reserve the term power washing for machines that heat the water, but in everyday use, homeowners and contractors treat the two terms as the same thing.
We use the two names for the same service and list it as power washing. If you call asking for pressure washing, you are asking for the same job.
How do we avoid damaging siding and softer surfaces?
Concrete can take a strong, close spray. Siding and storefront finishes cannot. We turn the pressure down for those, so they are cleaned without damage.
When is a good time to power wash in Colorado?
Most exterior washing in Colorado happens from spring through fall, when temperatures stay above freezing. Spring makes sense for most properties, once the snow is done and the winter sand and grime can be cleared in one pass.
Other good moments are before listing a home for sale, before repainting or sealing a surface, and before a busy season at a storefront.
Should I book power washing with window cleaning?
If you want both, ask for them on the same quote. It makes sense to wash the siding and concrete before the windows, so overspray never lands on freshly cleaned glass.
