The Pressure Washing Process We Follow
Our pressure washing services offer a range of options tailored to the specific types of staining present on your property. Below is a step-by-step overview of our process, which ensures thorough and effective cleaning every time:
Chemical Pre-treatment
To begin, we apply a proprietary house wash solution as a pre-treatment to the concrete. This chemical mix is specially formulated to kill organic growth such as algae, moss, and lichen on contact. As a result, the surface is not only sanitized but also noticeably brightened, restoring the concrete’s original appearance.
Surface Cleaning
Next, after allowing the pre-treatment to dwell for an appropriate amount of time, we use a surface cleaner — a large, disc-shaped attachment that sits on the ground and is operated with waist-high handles. This tool is ideal for pressure washing wide areas of concrete or brick efficiently and can even be used to clean flat cement tile roofs. By using this equipment, we ensure uniform cleaning across large surfaces.
Pressure Gun and Lance
After covering the broad areas, our technicians switch to a pressure gun and lance attachment. This step allows us to access hard-to-reach corners and edges that may have been missed by the surface cleaner. With the appropriate nozzle tips and pressure settings, we can clean more delicate or detailed areas thoroughly while protecting the surface from damage.
Rinse and Repeat
Once the surface debris has been loosened, it’s crucial to rinse it away to prevent the dirt from reabsorbing into the material’s pores. For this, we use a ball valve attachment on the end of the pressure hose, which helps redirect water and debris away from the home and toward the front of the property. If necessary, we repeat the entire process until we achieve optimal results.
Water Reclamation
Finally, we address the runoff water generated during the cleaning. Whenever possible, we redirect the water toward landscaped areas. In many cases, residential properties are designed with drains that guide moisture underground and toward the street. To comply with EPA regulations, we place water dams at the curb to collect runoff. Once gathered, our pumps transfer the water into the sanitary sewer system, ensuring it doesn’t enter storm drains that lead to natural waterways like rivers and oceans.
