Q: What PSI is best for pressure washing siding?

• <div><p>The amount of pressure required to wash your siding depends on the material. Vinyl siding, as well as brick and stone exteriors, can handle high pressure of 2,500 to 3,000 psi, especially if you&rsquo;re not worried about damaging paint. Wood and aluminum siding needs a gentler approach and shouldn&rsquo;t face more than 1,500 psi.</p></div>

Q: How do you prep a surface for pressure washing?

• <div><p>It depends on the type of surface, but if you&rsquo;re preparing to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-pressure-wash-driveway.htm">pressure wash a driveway</a>, you&rsquo;ll start by using a broom or leaf blower to get rid of dirt, leaves, and other debris. Then, move any nearby items (like outdoor furniture and potted plants) and cover in-ground plants with a tarp or plastic sheet. After that, you can apply degreaser spray or another pretreatment solution to any stains and scrub them with a stiff brush before pressure washing.</p></div>

Q: Can you pressure wash cedar shake siding?

• <div><p>Cedar shake siding requires regular cleaning, or else it will grow mold and algae. However, a pressure washer can easily damage your cedar shakes if the water pressure is too high. We recommend cleaning with a garden hose instead. Review our guide to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-maintain-cedar-shake-siding.htm">cedar siding maintenance</a> if you&rsquo;ve just finished your installation.</p></div>

Q: How much does commercial powerwashing cost?

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.
