Did you know that most siding manufactures suggest you power wash house siding every two years for proper maintenance?  Before attempting to power wash house exteriors yourself, there are a few things you should know before you power wash.  Power wash techniques vary depending on the surface that your cleaning and it's a delicate process of using the right cleaners, water volume and pressure.  It can also cause thousands of dollars in damage if your not properly trained to power wash house siding due to excessive pressure or bad cleaning products.

 Here is some basic information you need to know to before hiring someone to power wash house exteriors.

Most contractors and home owners believe using 3,000 - 4,000 psi to power wash house exteriors is the fastest and most effective way to get the job done.  That amount of pressure can damage aluminum siding and force water behind it causing mildew and in some cases blow it off the house!   

Most home owners are surprised to find that jet fuel is what is usually being removed when you power wash house siding and roofs.

Improper use of cleaners when you power wash house exteriors can cause extensive damage because most of them contain sodium hydroxide and other caustics and degreasers to remove the most common soil found on homes.  These products are necessary to power wash house exteriors and get good results but they need to be used properly.
 
Little black spots called artillery fungus are nearly impossible to remove.

As you can see there are quite a few factors involved when we power wash house exteriors and we urge you to use caution when hiring a contractor or attempt to do the job yourself.
