What happens if I don't pressure wash my deck before staining?

• <div><p>If you don’t thoroughly clean your deck surface before staining, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped on top of the wood. As well as looking unsightly, the stain won’t effectively penetrate the wood surface. You won’t have such a well-protected deck, and you’ll likely have to restain sooner. Beyond just the appearance and adhesion issues, any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage over time, ultimately shortening the lifespan of your deck and requiring costly repairs.</p></div>

Q: What do housekeepers not clean?

• <div><p>Most housekeepers won&rsquo;t handle tasks that require specialized equipment or training, like <a href="https://www.angi.com/companylist/carpet-cleaning.htm">carpet shampooing</a>, window washing at high levels, or outdoor cleaning. Housekeepers typically dust, vacuum, mop, wash dishes, clean surfaces, and launder linens. It&rsquo;s best to clarify what services are included before hiring to make sure you&rsquo;re on the same page.</p></div>

Q: Is it OK to pressure wash a deck before staining?

• <div><p>Yes, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-power-wash-deck.htm">pressure washing your deck</a> before staining is a great idea because it clears the wood from any dirt, dust, and debris that could get in the way of solid stain coverage. Washing makes it easier to stain your deck and helps the stain grip the wood so it lasts longer. Pressure washers are faster and easier on your body than scrubbing your deck by hand. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to pressure wash a house?

• <div><p>It takes about 15 minutes per each side of an exterior house to apply detergent and 15 minutes to remove it, so you&rsquo;ll need roughly two hours for the whole job. However, that length of time may decrease or increase depending on the size of your home, so always budget a little more than expected to ensure you don&rsquo;t end up rushing to get it done.</p></div>

Everything was as you would expect from a Lowes. They loaded the washing machine up. They offered delivery and installation, but we needed it that day so we took a trailer up there and got it ourselves because it would have been another day to get it.

Every WashDirt trailer features a vacuum recovery system that captures and filters used wash water before it can enter storm drains. The reclaimed water is treated and relocated to approved areas, keeping detergents and residues out of public waterways. This system allows us to operate safely in environmentally sensitive areas such as airports, parking lots, and municipal properties.

"Washdirt is amazing. The work was done as advertised and I couldn’t be more happy with the results. My sidewalks and driveway look new again. What makes WashDirt different is the waste water is collected during use and repurposed. This is all done using efficient, state of the art equipment. The website is easy to use and makes scheduling a breeze. The communication is great with texting updates. "
