Get matched with top pressure washers in Bowman, ND

Power washing asbestos siding can be hazardous and isn't recommended. The power washer's high pressure can disturb the siding and release harmful asbestos fibers into the air. Rather than attempting to DIY it, hire a professional trained in asbestos handling to tackle any exterior cleaning.

Always begin by removing large debris, leaves, and branches from your lawn to make room for the rest of your lawn maintenance checklist. Move on to mowing, weeding, and edging in the spaces between your lawn and garden. Lastly, clean off all hardscapes, porches, and patios for a fresh and tidy appearance.

This process doesn’t necessarily require soap or detergent, but it definitely helps. You can get by with just using water, but remember, brick requires a lower-than-average pressure level when compared to concrete, so forgoing detergent increases the time it takes to spot clean stains and debris once you finish with the pressure washer. Brick is especially porous, so the less water you use on it, the better.

Pressure washing a wooden deck can lift ingrained dirt, mold, and mildew, making the space look more inviting and increasing its longevity. However, you risk damaging the porous surface if you DIY deck pressure washing and go in too powerfully or at the wrong angle. Pick a white pressure washer nozzle that sprays with a gentle 40-degree fan pattern, and keep some distance while spraying.
