Why Choose a Pressure Washing Service Over DIY or Wet and Forget
Maintaining the cleanliness and curb appeal of your home’s exterior is a task that can’t be overlooked. Over time, dirt, grime, algae, and mildew can accumulate on your home’s surfaces, leaving them looking unsightly and slippery. One effective way to revitalize your home’s exterior is through pressure washing. While some homeowners may consider DIY methods or easy-to-use cleaning solutions like “Wet and Forget,” there are several compelling reasons to opt for a professional pressure washing service. In this blog post, we’ll explore the advantages of hiring a professional pressure washing company for your exterior cleaning needs, including the instant results they provide when it comes to making slippery paths safe.


Expertise and Experience:
Professional pressure washing companies have the knowledge and experience required to effectively clean a wide range of surfaces, from walls and decks to driveways and paths. They are well-versed in using the right pressure levels and detergents for different materials and stains. When you hire professionals, you can trust that your property will be treated with care and that the results will be exceptional.
Equipment and Technology:
One of the primary advantages of hiring a professional pressure washing service is their access to high-quality equipment and cutting-edge technology. These tools can provide the optimal pressure settings to safely and effectively remove even the toughest stains, without causing damage to your property. When you attempt to DIY, you may use a domestic pressure washer or end up renting subpar equipment that doesn’t deliver the same results (most homeowner’s pressure washers are designed to suit an array of needs, such as cleaning cars, whereas a professional will have different tools specifically for each job)


Time and Efficiency:
Professional pressure washers can complete the job in a fraction of the time it would take for a homeowner to do it themselves. Their efficiency is not only a time-saver but also ensures the job is done thoroughly and evenly. By hiring a pro, you can free up your time for other tasks and still achieve a pristine exterior.
Instant Results for Safety:
When slippery paths and walkways are an issue due to algae or moss growth, hiring a professional pressure-washing company is the best option. With their high-powered equipment and expertise, they can provide instant results by removing these hazards, making your paths grippy and safe for you, your family, and your guests.


Cost-Effective in the Long Run:
While DIY pressure washing or using commercial cleaning solutions may seem like a cost-effective option at first, it can be a costly mistake in the long run. Mistakes can lead to property damage, or the job may not be completed to your satisfaction. The expenses of repairing or re-cleaning can quickly add up. (which commonly occurs when correct cleaning solutions are absent) Professionals get it right the first time, making their services a cost-effective investment.
Safety:
Pressure washing can be hazardous if not done correctly. The high-pressure water stream can lead to injuries and property damage. Professionals are well-trained in safety measures, ensuring that the cleaning process is safe for both your property and their team.
Domestic pressure washing machines, while versatile in their applications, often place a considerable strain on the user when it comes to ground cleaning. These machines are typically designed to handle a wide range of tasks, from washing cars to cleaning exterior surfaces. As a result, they lack the specialized features and ergonomic design required for efficient and strain-free ground pressure washing. Users frequently find themselves hunched over for extended periods, leading to backaches and discomfort. In contrast, professional pressure washing equipment is purpose-built to address these issues, with ergonomic handles, adjustable wands, and power settings optimized for ground cleaning. This not only ensures superior results but also enhances user comfort, making it clear why choosing a professional service for ground pressure washing is the smart choice.


Environmental Concerns:
When it comes to DIY pressure washing, you may inadvertently use harsh chemicals or detergents that can harm the environment. Professionals are well-versed in using eco-friendly, biodegradable cleaning solutions that are safe for your surroundings.
Comprehensive Cleaning:
Professional pressure washing services can handle a wide range of cleaning needs, including removing graffiti, oil stains, blackspot, lichen and even rust. They have the tools and expertise to tackle even the most stubborn stains that DIY methods may struggle to remove.

Advantages of Hiring a Professional Pressure Washing Service
While DIY pressure washing and commercial cleaning solutions like “Wet and Forget” have their place, there are undeniable advantages to hiring a professional pressure washing service. The combination of expertise, advanced equipment, time efficiency, safety, and the ability to provide instant results, especially when dealing with slippery paths, makes professionals the go-to choice for anyone looking to restore the beauty and cleanliness of their property’s exterior. When you choose professionals, you’re not just investing in cleanliness; you’re investing in the longevity and value of your property.

Matthew did an incredible job on our patio! I tried jet washing it myself with huge difficulty & decided to contact Matthew for a quote having seen his Facebook posts. He came over at a time suitable for me for a visit and quote, and booked us in for the service within 2 weeks of my enquiry. Honestly speechless at how fantastic the patio now looks! I'll be outside brushing the leaves off the patio constantly to keep it looking this great now!
