Q: Can you pressure wash shou sugi ban siding?

• <div><p>Pressure washing shou sugi ban siding is generally not a good idea. The charring process used in creating shou sugi ban siding involves burning the wood's surface to achieve its unique appearance and enhanced durability. The charred surface is delicate, and pressure washing can easily damage it. Instead of pressure washing, you can clean it with a soft brush or broom to remove loose debris, followed by a mixture of mild soap and water applied with a soft cloth or sponge.</p></div>

Q: Do you turn the pressure washer on before the water?

• <div><p>You should always hook up your pressure washer to the water supply before turning it on and ensure there&rsquo;s a good water flow. If you try to turn the machine on without water in the system, it overworks and overheats the unlubricated pump. This can quickly lead to irreversible damage.</p></div>

Q: What happens if you don’t pressure wash before painting?

• <div><p>If the exterior walls are not thoroughly cleaned before a paint job, the paint could stick to the grime, creating obvious imperfections along the way. Beyond that, painting over a freshly-cleaned wall just about doubles the lifespan of the paint, from three or four years to seven to ten years. </p></div>

Q: Should you pressure wash wood siding?

• <div><p>We don&rsquo;t recommend pressuring washing clapboard siding. At high levels of pressure, a pressure washer can damage wood siding permanently. Pressure washing can also make it easier to drive water into the cracks of clapboard (which are recommended for easier drainage), causing moisture damage.</p><p>If you think your clapboard siding is so dirty it could benefit from pressure washing, we suggest contacting a pressure wash cleaning service and getting a quote on a wood siding project. Some siding manufacturers recommend never pressure washing because it can force water behind the siding.</p></div>

Q: Is fencing included in the cost to pressure wash a house?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-pressure-wash-house.htm">cost to pressure wash a house</a> ranges from <b>$200 to $400</b> and unfortunately does not include fencing. That service will be an additional charge of between <b>$150 and $350</b>, depending on the size of your fence and the type of material it&rsquo;s made of. This also applies for other services like pressure washing a patio or deck. </p></div>

He was quick, knowledgeable, and very reasonable. We are going to use him to do some work on our deck, pressure wash, replace 3 boards and apply linseed oil. We found our handyman. Very friendly. Nice guy. I know if it is job he can't do, he will have someone to recommend.

"Contractor keep appointment (even though there were 2 or 3 calls expressing confusion about time and day); installed the drywall and cleaned the area. The drywall installation was not smooth and when textured looked amateurish at best. Before I could paint I had to sand several areas and apply canned texture-not the most professional look but time was a factor. the next time the wall is painted will require extensive prep work to make it look professional.
Good things: appointment keep; work was done as explained; no extra charges.
Not so good: Technician was not a drywall guy.
