Get matched with top pressure washers in El Cenizo, TX

Choosing a professional to pressure wash your home can make all the difference between a job well done and a job not so well done. The best way to choose a pressure washing pro is by finding at least three contractors or companies and vetting them. To help you find the best pressure washing pro near you, ask the following questions: How many years of experience do you have? Do you have any credentials? What methods do you use to clean driveways? Do you have a workmanship warranty and insurance? What availability do you have? What happens if you damage my property? How long does it take to complete the job? How much do you charge to pressure wash a driveway? What’s the cancellation policy? Do you offer any additional services? Do you offer a customer satisfaction guarantee?

It is possible to pressure wash your deck, but it’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.

If you’re using water pressure above 2,000 PSI, you should wear a full face shield—at 4,000 PSI, a water jet can easily slice through skin. Always wear heavy-duty, waterproof gloves and rubber boots with metatarsal guards. If you’re working with hot water, make sure your gloves are insulated.

The amount of pressure required to wash your siding depends on the material. Vinyl siding, as well as brick and stone exteriors, can handle high pressure of 2,500 to 3,000 psi, especially if you’re not worried about damaging paint. Wood and aluminum siding needs a gentler approach and shouldn’t face more than 1,500 psi.
