- Special techniques for delicate surfaces like stucco and painted surfaces
- Temperature-controlled water usage based on surface material
Systematic Cleaning Process
- Top-to-bottom cleaning approach prevents streaking
- Overlapping patterns ensure no missed spots
- Consistent distance maintenance for uniform cleaning
- Angular spray techniques to prevent etching
Common Industry Practices to Watch Out For
One-Size-Fits-All Pressure
- Many companies use single pressure settings for all surfaces
- Can cause immediate or long-term damage
- Often too powerful for delicate surfaces
- Risk of surface etching and material erosion
Improper Technique Damage Risks
- Excessive pressure on siding can force water behind walls
- Wrong angle can etch concrete and strip wood
- Inconsistent distance creates uneven cleaning
- Improper nozzle selection can cause scarring
Potential Damage from Improper Pressure Washing
Siding Damage
- Water forced behind siding causing mold and rot
- Cracked or split vinyl siding
- Peeling paint and surface etching
- Loosened or damaged panels
Concrete/Brick Damage
- Surface etching and pitting
- Mortar erosion between bricks
- Exposed aggregate from excessive pressure
- Weakened structural integrity
Wood Surface Damage
- Splintering and fiber raising
- Uneven surface erosion
- Deep etching in softer areas
- Accelerated aging and deterioration
Window and Seal Damage
- Broken window seals
- Water penetration around frames
- Damaged weather stripping
- Compromised caulking
