At least once a year, homeowners should have a pressure washing company power wash the exterior of their home. Whether you live in James Island, Mount Pleasant, Johns Island, or West Ashley , the exterior of your home is continually exposed to outdoor elements (weather, chemicals, dirt, etc…). Pressure washing, sometimes referred to as power washing, is one of the most efficient methods to power clean the exterior of your home (siding, windows, fascia boards, roof and decks). Failure to pressure wash your home regularly will eventually lead to paint failure, wood decay, structural damages and decreasing curb appeal/home value.
There are many benefits associated with pressure washing. Pressure washing washes away most pollutants that otherwise would cause exterior paint to crack, leaving the lumber substrate exposed to the weather (sun, rain and wind). Pressure washing is a great way to get dirt, grime, pollen, mold and peeling paint off your home’s exterior. If you live in Charleston, North Charleston, or Goose Creek, regular pressure washing services from a reputable pressure washing contractor like Seabrook Painting, will prolong the life and appearance of your home.
To remove mold and mildew from siding and fascia boards, pressure washing is simply the most efficient tool available. In order to remove mold and mildew from siding and fascia boards, the right cleaning solution mix should be used as well as the right heat, pressure and water flow rate. Seabrook Painting pressure washing equipment is of professional grade and will yield maximum results. Pressure washers that can handle hot water allow for less use of chemicals. To remove mold and mildew, the solution used is 50% water and 50% bleach. Many people believe that bleach is detrimental to their plants, shrubs, flowers and grass. However, mixed half and half with water, bleach is actually harmless and continues to remain the best ingredient to kill and remove mold. Only an experienced pressure washing contractor like Seabrook Painting should pressure wash your siding, decks or fascia boards. If done wrong, pressure washing can damage exterior paint and wood surface. For example, if exterior siding is pressure washed from the bottom up, it might deteriorate the siding setup. Aiming directly at a window might cause glass breakage or water infiltration through small holes or may wash away caulking. Various types of nozzle tips are used depending on the application. Seasoned pressure washing professionals like Seabrook Painting have many nozzle tips on hands. Bargain basements outfits and inexperienced contractors or homeowners may only have a small selection of nozzle tips. If used the wrong way, pressure washing can cause serious damage to siding, stucco, windows and fascia boards.
