How long does it take to pressure wash a 2,000-square-foot house?

• <div><p>It usually takes about two to four hours to pressure wash a 2,000-square-foot home. The exact time depends on how much dirt there is, the type of siding, and whether you’re doing it yourself or hiring a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/power-washing/">professional pressure washing service</a>. A DIY job can take an average of six to eight hours, but you should plan for it to take an entire day. A pro can get the job done quicker. </p></div>

Q: What happens if you don’t pressure wash before painting?

• <div><p>If the exterior walls are not thoroughly cleaned before a paint job, the paint could stick to the grime, creating obvious imperfections along the way. Beyond that, painting over a freshly-cleaned wall just about doubles the lifespan of the paint, from three or four years to seven to ten years. </p></div>

Q: Should I use bleach in a pressure washer?

• <div><p>Though bleach is a great way to kill mold and mildew around the house, you should never, under any circumstances, use bleach in a power washer. Bleach is a potent chemical that will destroy the pressure washer from the inside out. If you&rsquo;re worried about killing mold and mildew, you should instead hire a pro who will use a safe but effective cleaning agent when pressure washing your home.</p></div>

Q: Should asphalt shingles be power washed?

• <div><p>No, asphalt shingles should not be power washed. A power washer or pressure washer is too strong to use on asphalt shingles and will loosen the adhesive holding them to your roof, causing them to fall off. It&rsquo;s best to hire a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/roof-cleaners/">local roof cleaner</a> to clean those shingles safely and without damaging them. </p></div>

Q: What is most important when buying a pressure washer?

• <div><p>One of the most important factors to consider when buying a pressure washer is not just psi but also the machine&rsquo;s overall cleaning power. This is based on both the psi and the GPM. Look for a cleaning rating, or effective cleaning unit (ECU), of up to 8,000 for most residential cleaning projects that require a pressure washer.</p></div>
