Q: What time of the year should you pressure wash a patio?

• <div><p>No matter the material, the best times to pressure wash or power wash a patio are spring and summer during a string of dry days. As long as the temperature is above 40 degrees Fahrenheit, you won&rsquo;t encounter any cold-related issues. You need those dry days to ensure no algae or mold grows on the wet surface of the patio. </p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a pressure wash and power wash?

• <div><p>The difference between pressure washing and power washing is the temperature of the water. With pressure washing, cool water from an outdoor spigot supplies water to the pressure washing machine. With a power washer, the cool water is heated inside the machine, which has a heating coil. The power washer sends out heated, pressurized water for a deeper clean.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to pressure wash in the spring or fall?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to pressure wash in the spring, but it&rsquo;s okay to pressure wash in the spring or the fall. Dirt, grime, and mildew can gather and reappear over the winter, so pressure washing only in the fall may not be worth the effort. Instead, pressure washing in the spring cleans areas around the house for the rest of the season. You can always touch up again during the summer or fall to make spring cleaning a little easier.</p></div>
