"I had planned on renting a pressure washer and doing this my self, but hadn't got around to it. I'm glad I hadn't because I wasn't aware that using cleaning solutions that robert explained to me is actually more efficient and keeps it clean longer. Before he left he asked about doing the sidewalk and I was skeptical but after he demo'd a spot I had him do that to plus he blasted the cracks clean so the little weeds that like to try and grow there haven't been back in weeks. Highly recommend"

Yes, a pressure washer uses less water than a garden hose. There are many ways to use a pressure washer, and it can be an eco-friendly hose substitute. While a pressure washer expels water with greater force, it uses 50% to 70% less water than a garden hose. Specifically, hoses put out six to 10 gallons per minute (GPM), while pressure washers only use two to five GPM.
If you’ve looked at power washing before and after photos, you might be wondering if this option isn’t the better cleaning solution for a wood fence. In fact, it just might be, especially if you’re struggling with issues like mold or embedded dirt. Keep in mind that the only difference between these two methods is that power washing uses hot water and pressure washing doesn’t, but sometimes such a small distinction can have a huge impact.
If you’re using water pressure above 2,000 PSI, you should wear a full face shield—at 4,000 PSI, a water jet can easily slice through skin. Always wear heavy-duty, waterproof gloves and rubber boots with metatarsal guards. If you’re working with hot water, make sure your gloves are insulated.
Always wear protective gear, including a mask, gloves, and eye goggles, whenever you’re dealing with high-pressure cleaning or cleaning with chemicals. But even if you’re just using plain water with your jet washer, don some gear to avoid splashing—especially from the hot water of a power washer—or any particles of dirt or debris that might fly off the surface as you clean it.
No, you should not use a pressure washer or power washer on roof shingles, including asphalt shingles. The high water pressure is too strong and can damage the shingles by loosening their adhesive, forcing water underneath them, or causing them to fall off. The safer and better option is soft washing with a pump sprayer. For best results and to avoid damage, consider hiring a local roof cleaner to clean your shingles safely.
