Description: | Pressure Washing Creates a Clean-Healthy Building Power washing is one of the easiest ways to create a clean home or business. Some Jacksonville homeowners can even preform pressure wash themselves. As long as you have a water connection (or tank source), the correct pressure washing equipment and some professional knowledge, you can make all of the gross stuff disappear. Most casual projects around the home don’t need a commercial strength pressure washer to create a successful results. As long as you have equipment that can produce between 500 to 2,000 PSI, you should be able to get the light residential work finished. If you have heavy-duty grime or a commercial building in Jacksonville, a 3,000 PSI power washer or above should take care of tasks. It’s not always the case, but most often, soft wash techniques work wonderfully as well! What You Need to Know About Power Washing vs Pressure Washing It is not unusual for people use the terms “pressure washing” and “power washing” interchangeably. However, there is a slight difference between the two of which you need to be aware. If you use a "power washer" to create a cleaner home or business, then you are using heat and pressure to work on tough stuck on substances or stains, mold, gum or grease. We use this method throughout Jacksonville, especially for commercial power washing. Many of the commercial properties we service such as restaurants require power washing in or around their dumpster & grease trap areas. The heat, along with a mild detergent and pressure play havoc on greasy surfaces. Of course, a heat apparatus (hot tank) is needed. Pressure Washing Wood When your deck or fence acquire a tired and gray appearance, developing that “weathered” look, super high pressure or heat are not needed. A pressure washer using a “soft wash” application is a proper choice here. Pressure Washing Cementous Surfaces When cleaning sound concrete in good condition, high pressure may be needed. Let’s say your sidewalk or stucco has years of built-up, stains to remove, applying a chlorine based chemical and then pressure washing with high pressure is the best option. Always do an inconspicuous test area first. Pressure Washing vs Power Washing Before Painting It's best to use pressure washing to begin the preparation work to repaint your exterior surfaces. It removes pollen, algae, moss, etc. so the new finishes will adhere properly. Painting Contractors have used this method with success for many years. Pressure Washing to Strip Paint Finishes If removing the old paint finish is desired; using a “strip tip” will do the trick. It projects an oscillating propulsion of high-pressure water that strips old paint finishes. Caution: This procedure is rarely needed and always test for lead based paint beforehand, a certain process must be followed when removing lead paint. |
