Q: What do you put in a pressure washer for a driveway?

• <div><p>You can put a gentle cleaner such as distilled white vinegar, dish soap, or a degreaser in your pressure washer in a detergent injector.

Rinse the area with the pressure washer. </p></div>

Q: What surfaces and items should not be pressure washed?

• <div><p>You should avoid using a pressure washer on any surface or item that could be damaged by the high-pressure spray, as some materials are too delicate to withstand the force.</p><p>Key items and surfaces to avoid include:</p><ul><li><p><b>Electrical Components:</b> Never pressure wash electrical systems, as water can cause short-circuits and create a safety hazard. This includes utility meters, breaker boxes, electrical outlets, generators, and HVAC or air conditioner units.</p></li><li><p><b>Delicate and Fragile Materials:</b> Fragile items can crack, shatter, or be stripped by the pressure. Avoid pressure washing windows, glass, light fixtures, shingled roofs (especially asphalt), and stucco.</p></li><li><p><b>Painted, Stained, or Sealed Surfaces:</b> Unless your goal is to strip the finish, do not pressure wash painted surfaces, stained wood (like decks), or anything with a protective seal that could be stripped away. Be especially cautious with older surfaces that may contain lead paint.</p></li><li><p><b>Soft Woods and Certain Decking:</b> Delicate surfaces like softwood, composite decking, and antique or wooden patio furniture can be etched or damaged. If you must wash wood, use a lower-powered pressure washer with a wide-angle nozzle to prevent damage.</p></li><li><p><b>Living Things:</b> Never use a pressure washer on people, pets, or plants. The force can cause serious injury and will destroy landscaping.</p></li></ul></div>

Q: Should you wear a mask when jet washing?

• <div><p>Always wear protective gear, including a mask, gloves, and eye goggles, whenever you&rsquo;re dealing with high-pressure cleaning or cleaning with chemicals.

Q: How long does it take to pressure wash a deck?

• <div><p>It generally takes 60 minutes to pressure wash a 19-foot by 19-foot deck. If you are using a pressure washer for the first time, be sure to take extra time to read all directions, select the right nozzles, and test a small portion of your deck before diving into the task.</p></div>

"Jason is absolutely amazing! I got several quotes, but his enthusiasm and personality, alone, won me over. He worked very quickly, told me the prices & giving me the receipts for anything that changed along the way, he is honest (which is SOOOO refreshing in this type of business), and is such a great person to bounce ideas off of for jobs that are not your typical pressure washing jobs. I wasn't sure what I wanted at first and he was genuinely excited to help me *exactly* what I wanted. And I got it! The curb appeal of my house is so much higher now. JoG is THE highest recommended person to have ever done any projects for me, hands-down... and that's quite a few. An absolutely wonderful person who does absolutely wonderful work."
