Pressure Washing FAQs, answered by experts

It is generally not recommended to use dish soap in a pressure washer. Dishwashing liquid is formulated for cooler water, and the warmer water used in a pressure washer can create excessive suds, potentially damaging the machine's tubing and other components. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions for recommended detergents. If you find yourself in a pinch, you can try a highly diluted solution, such as one tablespoon of dish soap per 1.5 quarts of water, to avoid clogging the machine.

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 cedar siding maintenance if you’ve just finished your installation.

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.

While power washing isn't a requirement before you stain a fence, it can make the job much easier and faster while reducing manual labor requirements. The stain will not work if the wood is full of dirt and dust, so power washing, sometimes called pressure washing, is a fast and effective way to prepare the wood for staining. Remember that you need to stain or repaint relatively soon after the wood has dried so that there isn’t time for dust and dirt to build up again. 

While DIY power washing is possible, professional services ensure thorough cleaning, proper pressure levels, and avoidance of surface damage.
