How Does Pressure Washing Work?

How pressure washing works

Pressure washing is an easy and fast way to clean your surfaces of a variety of stains! There are two main types of pressure washing, and we offer both of them at Whaley's Essential Pressure Washing.

Traditional pressure washing uses higher water pressure, and typically uses a higher water temperature, too. This combination is great for blasting away stains like dirt and grime, car oil and grease, and even graffiti. However, traditional pressure washing isn't always the best option for washing more sensitive surfaces, like glass, wood, or vinyl. That's where soft washing comes in!

Soft washing employs a lower water pressure combined with a specialized cleaning agent, which can also remove many stains, but without the risk of additional surface damage. Soft washing is tough on stains but gentle on surfaces. That's why our team at Whaley's Essential Pressure Washing is proud to offer commercial soft washing services for a variety of areas around your home.

What Can Pressure Washing Remove?

Pressure washing works great to remove a variety of surface stains, including:

  • Car oil and grease
  • Dirt and grime
  • Black algae stains and buildup
  • Chewing gum
  • Mold
  • Mildew
  • Rust
  • Graffiti
  • Paint spills
  • Bacteria
  • Organic matter buildup

What Are The Benefits Of Regular Pressure Washing?

There are so many benefits to regular pressure washing! It's one of the fastest and most cost-effective ways to keep your home or business looking bright and fresh year-round, and it can even raise your curb appeal! Regular pressure washing can also:

  • Help detect damages while they're still small and easy to fix
  • Raise the overall value of your properties
  • Help attract new and returning customers into your business
  • Protect your investments over the years
