What we wash

  • House siding — vinyl, fiber cement, brick, stucco and wood
  • Decks, dock walkways and porches
  • Wood and vinyl fencing
  • Driveways, sidewalks, patios and concrete steps
  • Soffit, fascia and gutter exteriors
  • Retaining walls and hardscape

Right pressure for the surface

More pressure is not better. Blasting vinyl siding drives water behind it, high pressure on wood raises the grain and leaves permanent wand marks, and too much on old mortar will strip it out. Concrete can take real pressure; siding and wood need a lower-pressure approach with a cleaning solution doing most of the work. Getting that call right is the difference between a clean house and a damaged one.

A great first step before painting or staining

Paint and stain need a clean, sound surface to bond to. Washing is included in our exterior painting and fence staining projects for exactly that reason. On its own, washing is also the cheapest way to make a house look cared for when you are listing it or hosting.

How often

Most East Tennessee homes benefit from a wash every one to two years. Anything shaded, north facing, or under trees will grow mildew and algae faster and may want it annually. Spring, once the pollen has finished, is the most popular time.

What we protect

Landscaping, light fixtures, outlets, AC units, furniture and anything that should not get soaked gets covered or moved before we start, and we check doors and windows for seal problems first so nothing ends up inside.

Questions

Pressure Washing — common questions

Will pressure washing damage my vinyl siding?

Not when it is done correctly. Vinyl should be washed at lower pressure with a cleaning solution and rinsed downward so water is not forced up behind the panels. Excess pressure is what cracks vinyl and drives water into the wall.

Do you use chemicals or just water?

Both, depending on the surface. Mildew, algae and black streaks need a cleaning solution to actually kill and release the growth — water alone just knocks the surface layer off and it comes right back.

Can you get rust or oil stains out of my driveway?

Often, but not always. Concrete is porous and stains that have sat for years may only lighten. We will tell you what to realistically expect before we start rather than overpromising.

Is pressure washing included when you paint?

Yes. On exterior painting projects, washing is part of the prep and is included in the quoted price.

How long does it take?

A typical driveway or deck is a couple of hours. A whole house exterior is usually most of a day depending on size, height and how heavy the growth is.
