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>

What questions should I ask a pressure washing pro?

• <div><p>When researching prospective <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/power-washing/">pressure washing pros</a>, consider asking them the following questions to ensure you hire the right professional for the job. </p><ul><li><p>What factors determine your costs to pressure wash a deck?</p></li><li><p>What are the different techniques you use for different deck materials, such as wood, composite, and metal? </p></li><li><p>How do you ensure that the pressure washer won’t damage the deck? </p></li><li><p>Are there any hidden costs I should prepare for, such as fees for deep stains or mold removal?</p></li><li><p>Can you offer a discounted price if I want to bundle additional services, like sealing or staining?</p></li><li><p>How long does it typically take you to pressure wash a deck like mine?</p></li><li><p>What type of detergents and cleaning solutions do you use? Are they safe for the surrounding ecosystem?</p></li><li><p>Do you recommend applying any treatments or coatings after pressure washing to preserve its appearance? </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Should you pressure wash wood siding?

• <div><p>We don’t recommend pressuring washing clapboard siding. At high levels of pressure, a pressure washer can damage wood siding permanently. Pressure washing can also make it easier to drive water into the cracks of clapboard (which are recommended for easier drainage), causing moisture damage.</p><p>If you think your clapboard siding is so dirty it could benefit from pressure washing, we suggest contacting a pressure wash cleaning service and getting a quote on a wood siding project. Some siding manufacturers recommend never pressure washing because it can force water behind the siding.</p></div>

Can you pressure wash the garage floor?

• <div><p>You can certainly utilize a pressure washer to effectively clean your garage floor. If you're dealing with oily residue, consider adding a degreaser to the pressure washer solution. Prior to using the pressure washer, make sure to thoroughly sweep the garage floor to eliminate any loose dirt or debris.</p><p>Begin the pressure washing process from the back of your garage, which is closest to your home, and work your way towards the front. This ensures that the water and dirt are directed outside. In case you've applied a cleanser or degreaser, it's a good idea to give the floor another pass with clean water using the pressure washer to ensure a thorough rinse.</p></div>

Donovan is excellent to work with. Timely, through, and fair. This is our 2nd time with him and both experiences weren't great. Stove first and now washer repair. Highly recommend.

"It was great (and easy) to work with Andrew on a major facility project at our Distribution Center. Not only did he complete the project on-time and under budget, he went above and beyond to ensure that we were happy customers. In one instance, we had purchased a heavy gate to be installed in the new doorway that Andrew put in between 2 of our warehouses. After installation, Andrew noted that the gate was significantly longer than we needed for that space and recommended that we remove one of the sections of the gate. He then volunteered to do this at no extra cost even though it required him to take the entire gate down, dissemble it and then reinstall it to the doorway. It is the little details like that make Andrew an exceptional contractor and one that we will continue to work with again and again. Oh, and we got a second gate to use because he was able to make it independent of the original setup! Thank you Andrew! Highly recommend! "
