"The project was to power wash the exterior of my house, including, cleaning the gutters. When done, the house looked great; I was truly surprised how good it looked. But...prior to quoting the project, they asked me some questions. One of which was if the square footage of my house 1800sf...it was, I said yes. I figured they must have pulled it from Zillow. Got the quote; I said go. They got there and said the house was bigger than they thought and upped their price! To be fair, the square footage is deceiving and the house is much taller than expected. When I was asked about the square footage, I did not know what I was answering; they used that number as the basis for their quote. I did pay about 38% more than the original quote (their was a little compromise on their part), but it was still a decent value. Also, prior to the original quote, they asked if I wanted the gutters cleaned; I said Yes. Turns out, they meant the outside of the gutters, not the inside! I was surprised they did not consider the outside of the gutters as part of the siding. I still need my gutters cleaned out! So, overall, I was happy with the finish product, but there was a couple of rough spots getting there. All the people I dealt with throughout, were extremely pleasant to work with."

Pressure Washing questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can use a pressure washer to effectively clean debris, dirt, and grime from your gutters, but it must be done with caution to avoid damage. Always use a low-pressure setting, with a recommended range between 1,200 and 1,800 PSI. Excessive pressure can bend or dent aluminum gutters, damage seams, peel paint, or even knock shingles off your roof, potentially leading to leaks and moisture issues. For a safer alternative, consider soft washing or cleaning them by hand. When using a pressure washer, it is safer to use gutter elbow extensions from the ground rather than climbing a ladder, as the force can cause instability. Due to the risks, you may want to hire a licensed and insured contractor for the job.

Costs depend on surface material, level of grime, accessibility, labor, and required cleaning agents.

Sodium bicarbonate does not need to be cleaned up as thoroughly as many of its aggregate counterparts because it is not considered dangerous to the environment, nor to pets or people. While you will likely want to clean up the dust with a shop-vac and some water for aesthetic and comfort reasons, soda blasting cleanup is much simpler than for most sandblasting.

You could void your roof warranty using a power washer if you have a newer roof. With an older roof, you could knock loose older shingles. On the other hand, some people safely use a pressure washer to remove moss from a metal roof. Although you may want to use a pressure washer, the truth is that you probably don’t need it to knock moss loose. A garden hose and brush will do the job just fine and in a safer manner than a pressure washer.

You can power wash your screen porch floors on a low setting to avoid damaging the walls or screens they contact. If you’re careful, you can use a power washer on the lowest setting for your porch screens. However, using a hose with a spray attachment reduces the risk of ripping the screen mesh and works as well as a power washer.
