Let the Spring Cleaning Begin! Why You Should Power Wash Your House

There is nothing like Springtime in Baltimore! Our surroundings start to become prettier and we forget how harsh the winter was. As we recover from winter we have to remember our homes need some TLC to help them recover as well. 

Pressure Washing: 

A Great Way to Brighten Up Your Home

Some of the activities we find ourselves doing for spring tend to be habitual. We clean out our closets to declutter our space, we tend to our garden to brighten up our yard, and

 look for other ways to welcome back  beautiful weather. As we admire our beautiful fresh cut lawn our eyes move up toward the siding of the house. Something seems a little off. Our exteriors used to look fresh and bright but Southern Maryland’s weather conditions hadn’t been so kind. Have you considered a good pressure washing as a way to revive the look of your house?

What Pressure Washing Can Do For Your Home

It may seem like another service to add to the list but not on your highest priority. Perhaps you haven’t considered some of the 

benefits to a professionally washed home. What value do you place on the curb appeal of your home? Whether you plan on selling or staying, it’s always nice to have a property that is aesthetically pleasing to the eye rather than an eye sore in the neighborhood. Washes that are regularly scheduled can actually increase the value of your home.

When it comes to saving money in maintenance, prevention is key. It’s possible to prevent little problems from becoming bigger ones. Surfaces that are growing algae or mold can actually deteriorate the structure over time. By catching these problems early on, you are preventing bigger repairs from happening later down the road. That is more money in your wallet.

Pressure Wash or Soft Wash

Not all surfaces are created equal. Some areas of your property are more strong while others  are more fragile. Because your surfaces vary, the services you chose should vary as well. How do you know what to pressure wash and what to soft wash?

Pressure Washing uses a jet stream that packs a punch at 2000 pounds per square inch. This power makes it apt to take on the tough build up on strong surfaces. Some of the  areas that you should consider using this service on are:

• Concrete Driveways
• Concrete Walkways 
• Decks and Patios
• Surfaces Made of Brick and Stone

Soft Washing takes that water pressure down from 2000 PSI to just 500. What it lacks in force makes up for in chemicals. This makes it safe and powerful enough to use on your more vulnerable surfaces and still get a thorough clean. Some areas to use soft washing are:

• Roof
• Cedar Panel Siding
• Wood Panel Siding
• Stucco
• Screens

In general spring cleaning can be a lot of work, but in the end, so rewarding. With a professional power washing company doing the work for you, you skip the work and get more reward. Baltimore Power Wash can help you achieve your spring cleaning goals by freshening up your Maryland home!
