Is it safe to pressure wash a deck?

• <div><p>Most deck lumber is softwood that you can easily damage with the spray from a power washer. Most power washers, though, have a lower pressure setting that’s relatively safe for deck materials if you’re careful to hold the nozzle at least a foot from the surface and continue moving without hovering in one area. </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>

Q: Can I pressure wash my own deck?

• <div><p>It is possible to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-power-wash-deck.htm">pressure wash your deck</a>, but it&rsquo;s usually best to leave the work to a professional for two main reasons. First, power washers are expensive, and you can avoid high upfront costs by hiring a deck washing pro instead. Second, you must be careful to use the correct setting to avoid damaging your deck material. You can only clean soft woods like pine with a wide spray and a low pressure; otherwise, the water will leave unpleasant marks on your deck. Hard woods, composite material, and metal can stand up to increasingly higher water pressures.</p></div>

Q: Should you pressure wash an outdoor rug?

• <div><p>While you can use a pressure washer to clean an outdoor rug, it is not necessary as a garden hose can easily do the job. If you do opt to use a pressure washer to clean an outdoor rug, keep it on the lowest pressure setting and adhere to all safety precautions. If you set the pressure washer on too high of a setting, you could run the risk of damaging the fibers and decreasing the longevity of an outdoor rug.</p></div>

Q: Is it okay to pressure wash gutters?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s okay to use a pressure washer to clear and clean your gutters. Be careful to avoid the outside of the gutters, as getting too close with the powerwasher can peel away the paint. Also, be careful to avoid causing any damage to seams that may be in the corners or along the length of the gutter.</p></div>

They are fantastic. I have a big F-250, tough to wash in a drive thru carwash. But they told me they could get it clean and they sure did. I had just got home from a 3000 mile trip to Texas and Colorado and it was a mess. Bugs and grime everywhere. They pre-sprayed it, ran it thru the wash...
