"RNH came early afternoon and did a very careful job of sealing my driveway after filling cracks. Unfortunately a heavy rain occurred later in the day and washed away areas of sealant as well as splattering onto an adjacent slump block wall. I called the next morning and RNH graciously offered to recoat the driveway as well as have someone come to clean the wall. The next day the wall was cleaned and not long after my driveway was completely recoated, again very carefully. I am very grateful to have found a company that not only does careful work at a fair price but that honors their word to "make it right" even when the problem was not due to their materials or workmanship."
"They did a great job, very friendly, were very helpful answering all my questions and working around my schedule. The work was excellent and to this day I have no issues with the concrete."
"Great guys, communication about the job and any setbacks was always timely and professional. They also did a fantastic job on some turf install that they surrounded with a concrete walkway."
The average cost to pressure wash a house is around $310, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $420. However, the total cost can vary widely, from $200 to $750. Power washing, which uses heated water, may cost between $250 and $400 per project, with an average of $200 to $300 for a 2,000-square-foot home.
Key factors that influence the final price include:
The size and height of the house (a multi-level home costs more than a single-story one).
The complexity of the job and accessibility of certain areas.
Geographic location.
Equipment and hourly labor costs.
Hiring a professional is often recommended as they bring their own equipment and cleaning solutions. Experienced professionals know how to complete the job effectively without causing damage to your siding, gutters, or landscaping, which can be a risk with high-powered water jets.
Yes, you can pressure wash with just water. The force of the water alone is often enough to remove dirt, grime, and debris from many surfaces. However, for tougher stains like grease, mildew, or algae, adding a detergent or cleaning solution can enhance the cleaning power. Be sure to use the appropriate nozzle and pressure settings for the surface to achieve the best results without causing damage.
Costs depend on surface material, level of grime, accessibility, labor, and required cleaning agents.
Maintaining a driveway depends on its material. For concrete and asphalt, it's best to clean the surface thoroughly twice a year with a stiff broom and a pressure washer to remove accumulated dirt and debris. Sealing the driveway is crucial to protect it from water damage and freeze-thaw cycles. Before applying a sealant, pressure wash the surface to remove any loose sealant, dirt, or stains, as sealing over them will trap them. Any cracks or expansion joints should be filled with a flexible polyurethane caulk or asphalt sealer. In colder climates, use sand instead of salt for de-icing. Sand helps melt snow and ice without accelerating the freeze-thaw process, which can cause cracks.
Experts typically recommend pressure washing your driveway at least once per year to keep it looking great while preventing stains, cracks, and unwanted vegetation. However, if your driveway gets a lot of use, you might want to pressure wash it more often to keep it looking like new.
