Is it better to pressure or power wash a wood fence?

• <div><p>If you’ve looked at <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/power-washing-before-and-after.htm">power washing before and after photos</a>, you might be wondering if this option isn’t the better cleaning solution for a wood fence. In fact, it just might be, especially if you’re struggling with issues like mold or embedded dirt. Keep in mind that the only difference between these two methods is that power washing uses hot water and pressure washing doesn’t, but sometimes such a small distinction can have a huge impact. </p></div>

Q: Can you pressure wash cedar shake siding?

• <div><p>Cedar shake siding requires regular cleaning, or else it will grow mold and algae. However, a pressure washer can easily damage your cedar shakes if the water pressure is too high. We recommend cleaning with a garden hose instead. Review our guide to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-maintain-cedar-shake-siding.htm">cedar siding maintenance</a> if you&rsquo;ve just finished your installation.</p></div>

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

• <div><p>It takes about 15 minutes per each side of an exterior house to apply detergent and 15 minutes to remove it, so you&rsquo;ll need roughly two hours for the whole job. However, that length of time may decrease or increase depending on the size of your home, so always budget a little more than expected to ensure you don&rsquo;t end up rushing to get it done.</p></div>

Q: How long do jet washers last?

• <div><p>Jet washers can last for up to 10 years, but a more exact timeline for your jet washer depends on the frequency of use and maintenance. Some machines are given a rating of their approximate total hours of usage, which can help determine how long yours will stick around based on how many hours you use it each year. Aside from learning how to properly use the jet washer, you&rsquo;ll want to keep it stored safely and securely so that it won&rsquo;t rust or get damaged between uses. </p></div>
