"I should have hired them a long time ago!!! The crew that used to do my windows stopped cleaning my inside cathedral ceiling window a couple years back, and it was really bothering me, so I decided to look for another company. These two guys did not miss a beat - first time ever having the window sills vacuumed, screens removed and really washed, and the windows were cleaned to perfection. Best job ever - and reasonably priced. I have already recommended them to my sister and Mother. They were early - no problem - and very professional. Extremely pleased !!!!"

Customers say: True professional

"We decided to remodel our outdated bathroom, and McCormick Home Builders was a fantastic choice. Khaled and the team delivered high-quality work within the timeline and our budget. Every detail, from the tile work to the lighting, was beautifully done. They communicated well throughout, keeping us informed at every step, and the end result was truly a spa-like bathroom we can enjoy daily. We’d love to work with them again!"

"I hired Kevin to paint two interior bedrooms while I was away on an international vacation, and he did an amazing job! From the beginning he offered highly competitive prices and clear communication that made it easy to set a date and time to have the work completed. Kevin stayed in touch and was highly responsive throughout the whole project, which took a lot of weight off my chest. The work was done to a high quality standard. I will definitely be calling him again for my painting needs"

"I had a sprinkler problem that no one was able to fix. I spent a lot of money and the problem was never remedied. Rafael, from Paradise gardning came to my house and was ready to work. Positive attitude, smile on his face,and willing to hangin there to find the problem. He worked with a great outlook that we would be succesfull. And we were. He was everything I hoped he would be. great work ethics and my cost was the best yet. Would hire Rafael again in a minute.."

Pressure Washing questions, answered by experts

You should never use bleach in a pressure washer. While bleach is effective at killing mold and mildew, it is a potent chemical that can corrode the machine's seals and nozzles, destroying it from the inside out. Additionally, pressure washing with bleach sprays the chemical into the air, which is dangerous if inhaled and can kill nearby plants, flowers, or harm animals that ingest it. If you need to remove mold or mildew, it is best to hire a professional who will use a safe and effective cleaning agent.

The ideal PSI (pounds per square inch) for a pressure washer depends on the surface you are cleaning. For general home use, a pressure washer with a range of 2,000 to 3,000 PSI is recommended and powerful enough for most residential projects.

The specific PSI you should use varies by task:

  • High-Pressure Tasks (2,500-3,000 PSI): Tough materials like concrete, stone, masonry, and brick can handle higher pressures. This is suitable for removing stubborn stains from driveways or cleaning graffiti.

  • Low-Pressure Tasks (around 600-1,300 PSI): Softer surfaces require a gentler touch to avoid damage. Use a low PSI setting for cleaning wood decks (especially softwoods like pine and cedar), vinyl siding, outdoor furniture, and stucco.

For best results, choose the right nozzle for your surface, such as a 15-degree nozzle for siding or a surface cleaner attachment for driveways. Using an extendable wand can also make the work easier and more ergonomic.

It‘s risky to pressure wash indoors, and we wouldn’t recommend it, but following all safety guidelines can prevent the worst outcomes. Always make sure to use an electric-powered machine over one that’s gas-powered, remove obstacles that could cause tripping or falling, and keep appliances like hair dryers and toothbrushes unplugged and out of the way to prevent electrical hazards. 

Yes, it is highly recommended to wash a house's exterior before painting to ensure the best results. Cleaning the surface removes dirt, dust, grime, mold, mildew, and old paint, which allows the new paint to adhere properly and results in a smoother, long-lasting finish. Failing to clean can lead to poor adhesion, peeling, and an uneven appearance. Pressure washing is an efficient method for this, but be cautious not to use excessive pressure that could damage siding or wood. For materials like vinyl or stucco, soft washing might be a better option. After washing, allow sufficient drying time, such as three to four days, before painting to prevent trapping moisture, which can cause blistering or peeling.

Most powerwashing jobs take 2-6 hours, but larger buildings or areas with deep staining may require an entire day.
