Q: How long does it take brick to dry after pressure washing?

• <div><p>Brick takes longer to dry than less porous materials like concrete. If you are waiting to spot clean, a full day of mild weather should do the trick. If you are waiting to paint or apply a finish or sealant, give it three to four days to ensure the brick is absolutely dry as a bone. You don&rsquo;t want any residual moisture whatsoever before laying down paint or sealant. </p></div>

Q: What surfaces and items should not be pressure washed?

• <div><p>You should avoid using a pressure washer on any surface or item that could be damaged by the high-pressure spray, as some materials are too delicate to withstand the force.</p><p>Key items and surfaces to avoid include:</p><ul><li><p><b>Electrical Components:</b> Never pressure wash electrical systems, as water can cause short-circuits and create a safety hazard. This includes utility meters, breaker boxes, electrical outlets, generators, and HVAC or air conditioner units.</p></li><li><p><b>Delicate and Fragile Materials:</b> Fragile items can crack, shatter, or be stripped by the pressure. Avoid pressure washing windows, glass, light fixtures, shingled roofs (especially asphalt), and stucco.</p></li><li><p><b>Painted, Stained, or Sealed Surfaces:</b> Unless your goal is to strip the finish, do not pressure wash painted surfaces, stained wood (like decks), or anything with a protective seal that could be stripped away. Be especially cautious with older surfaces that may contain lead paint.</p></li><li><p><b>Soft Woods and Certain Decking:</b> Delicate surfaces like softwood, composite decking, and antique or wooden patio furniture can be etched or damaged. If you must wash wood, use a lower-powered pressure washer with a wide-angle nozzle to prevent damage.</p></li><li><p><b>Living Things:</b> Never use a pressure washer on people, pets, or plants. The force can cause serious injury and will destroy landscaping.</p></li></ul></div>

Q: Do I need to winterize my pressure washer, and what happens if I don't?

• <div><p>Whether you need to winterize your pressure washer depends on where it will be stored. If it's kept in a location where temperatures could drop to freezing, any liquid left in the water pump can freeze, expand, and cause severe damage to the machine. To prevent this, you can add antifreeze to the pump. While emptying the machine with compressed air is an alternative, it can be a tedious process and may not remove all the liquid. If you can store the pressure washer in a relatively warm place with no risk of freezing, you won't need to add antifreeze. However, regardless of storage conditions, it is good practice to empty the gas chamber and refresh the oil before storing it for the winter.</p></div>

Q: What factors affect powerwashing costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on surface material, level of grime, accessibility, labor, and required cleaning agents.</p></div>

Q: How do you completely disinfect a house?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/hygiene/about/when-and-how-to-clean-and-disinfect-your-home.html">Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)</a> recommends using an EPA-registered disinfectant product to disinfect a house properly. If such a product isn't handy, a strong bleach solution can disinfect high-touch surfaces. Before hiring a professional, be sure to discuss the type of chemicals and disinfectants they plan to use to ensure they&rsquo;re safe for household use.</p></div>

"I found TLS Painting on Angies List. I was immediately impressed with Tyler when he came out to give me an estimate. I needed painting done, but also repair of damage done due to extreme sun exposure. Tyler pointed out areas that needed repair and was knowledgeable in those areas as well. I was really pleased with everything that he did, and felt that his bid was very fair. I would not hesitate to recommend Tyler and TLS Painting and would definitely use them again in the future!"
