"A delivery truck backed up too far into a loading dock on our business property damaging the wall and causing the overhead door to be inoperable. We had difficulty finding a competent contractor to take on this repair. Within a few days of contacting Tom, he visited the property and had an estimate prepared. We had some concerns about the large amount of deposit that he required. He did explain that obtaining a large deposit has become commonplace among contractors in the area so they will be paid. So we went ahead and sent him a check for the deposit. Once he had received the payment, he started the work within a couple of days and was completely finished in less than two weeks. He kept us informed along the way of his progress. The cost of the repairs seemed reasonable under the circumstances. I would not hesitate to use Tom again."

While you can use a pressure washer to clean an outdoor rug, it is not necessary as a garden hose can easily do the job. If you do opt to use a pressure washer to clean an outdoor rug, keep it on the lowest pressure setting and adhere to all safety precautions. If you set the pressure washer on too high of a setting, you could run the risk of damaging the fibers and decreasing the longevity of an outdoor rug.
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.
One of the best ways to save money on deck cleaning services might seem counter-intuitive: pay for cleaning annually rather than waiting until it’s necessary. Routine deck maintenance can help you avoid stains and mold growth, both of which can detract from the appearance of your deck and limit its lifespan. Annual cleaning and resealing will keep your deck looking new for longer, adding utility to your yard and improving the overall appeal of your home and its value. You can also save money by coupling deck power washing with other outdoor cleaning services, like fences, patios, and walkways.
It is generally not recommended to use dish soap in a pressure washer. Dishwashing liquid is formulated for cooler water, and the warmer water used in a pressure washer can create excessive suds, potentially damaging the machine's tubing and other components. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions for recommended detergents. If you find yourself in a pinch, you can try a highly diluted solution, such as one tablespoon of dish soap per 1.5 quarts of water, to avoid clogging the machine.
You should wait until your pavers have completely dried and cured before pressure washing them. Wait at least three to five days, though some sealants may need up to an entire week. Rushing that timeline can mess with the finish, weaken the seal, or leave streaks that are tough to fix. Once the sealant has fully set, stick to a gentle approach. Keep the pressure under 1,500 PSI and hold the nozzle at least two feet from the surface. Anything stronger or closer can blast the joint sand loose or wear down the sealant you just applied.
