What is pressure washing and what can it clean?

Pressure washing uses a high-pressure stream of water to remove dirt, grime, mold, mildew, algae, and other build-up from various surfaces. It can be used on driveways, patios, sidewalks, decks, fences, siding, and more.

What's the difference between pressure washing and soft washing?

Pressure washing uses high pressure, which is great for hard surfaces like concrete. Soft washing uses low pressure with specialized cleaning solutions to safely clean more delicate surfaces like siding, roofs, and painted wood without causing damage.

Is pressure washing safe for my home/property?

When done correctly by a professional, yes. We know how to adjust the pressure and use the right techniques and cleaning solutions for each surface to prevent damage.

How often should I have my property pressure washed?

This depends on your location (Utah's climate is dusty!) and the specific surface. For most homes in Salt Lake and Utah counties, a quarterly, bi-annual, or annual cleaning is efficient to maintain curb appeal and prevent long-term damage from dirt and grime build up.

Do I need to be home for the service?

In most cases, no, as long as the technicians have access to the areas that need to be cleaned and an outdoor water source.

What do I need to do to prepare for the service?

You should clear the areas to be cleaned of any furniture, potted plants, or other items. Make sure windows and doors are closed, and let the technician know of any potential issues, like loose window panes or electrical outlets nearby.

How long does a pressure washing job take?

The time varies greatly depending on the size of the area, the type of surface, and the amount of build-up. A small driveway might take an hour, while an entire house could take several hours.

What kind of cleaning solutions do you use? Are they safe?

We use cleaning solutions that are kid and pet friendly. While some of our cleaning solutions are designed to kill bio-organic materials (mold, mildew, algae), we take the right precautions when working around landscaping. We water any plant life in the run-off path before, during, and after to ensure plants aren't affected.

Do you guarantee your work?

Our Crack Sealing service comes with a 12 month warranty. For pressure washing, our service guarantee is a deep clean, removing dirt, grime, and bio-organic materials. If you are not satisfied with the initial cleaning results for any reason, we will make it right.

Do you provide the water for cleaning services?

No, we hook up to your outdoor water source. Water is very inexpensive in Utah, and the cost associated with its use is minimal. For homeowners, the impact on their water bill from services like pressure cleaning is negligible.

How much would my water bill increase by doing a pressure washing service?

In most cities, the average cost for water service is about $24 plus the cost of water consumption. On average, 1 hour of pressure washing uses approximately 180 gallons — making the average water cost per hour roughly $0.02.
