The warmer months of the year are ideal for cleaning the exterior of your home or business. Pressure washers are valuable tools in cleaning outdoor areas exposed to the elements. Consider using this specialized equipment to clean the following areas.

Where Should You Use a Pressure Washer This Summer?

1. Fences

It doesn’t matter what type of fence you own. Pressure washing can be performed on most materials, including wood, vinyl, wrought-iron, and aluminum chain-link fences. Once you’ve blasted away dirt and grime, you’ll find it’s easier to perform annual maintenance, such as painting or sealing wooden fences.

2. Patios & Walkways

Your patio and walkways are likely made of concrete or another natural stone material, and even with the proper seal, they can become grungy over time. A pressure washer can use a powerful stream of water mixed with a safe detergent to clear away mud, stains, algae, and general grunge, making the areas look clean and like-new when you’re entertaining this summer. 

3. Play Equipment

Homeowners with children will appreciate having a cleaner, sanitized place for their children to play while out of school. By pressure washing your backyard swing set, slide, or other play equipment, you can eliminate dirt and germs and preserve the equipment, so it lasts longer. Without regular cleanings, the grimy build-up can erode paint and metal surfaces and cause corrosion.
