From chemicals to dirt, all sorts of gunk can stick to the house exterior and other fixtures on the facade. The particles can degrade materials and diminish the curb appeal of the property. Professional power-washing will restore the structural integrity and beauty of your home. Here are a few areas of the house that need power-washing the most. 

What Property Elements Should Be Power-Washed?

1. Siding

Bird droppings and mildew are two threats to your home’s siding. The acidity of bird waste can eat through the material, while mildew can also dull and deteriorate the panels.

Invest in power-washing for vinyl, aluminum, wood, steel, brick, and stucco siding every couple of years. Professionals will load a cleaning solution formulated for the material into the power-washing machine. The high-pressure stream from the nozzle will instantly break up and remove layers of grime to restore the color and quality of the surfaces. 

2. Driveway

Oils and other liquids from your car can leave stains on your concrete driveway. The chemical residue can break down the sealant protecting the material from water infiltration and ultraviolet rays.

Power-washing will remove chemicals before they can deteriorate the hardscape. The water will also wash away weeds poking out of small fissures in the concrete and between brick pavers. This means the roots won’t push against the concrete and make the cracks wider or displace the bricks.  

3. Deck

From backyard barbecues to sunbathing, there are several activities your family might enjoy on the deck during the warmer months. Deck cleaning is one of the services pressure-washing companies provide.

Over time, the sun’s ultraviolet rays cause cracks to form in wooden decking materials. Mold and mildew can grow in the crevices and cause allergy symptoms in your family members. Power-washers will remove the fungus and other substances clinging to the wood so that you can restain the surface to protect it from UV damage and fungal growth.
