  Pressure washing Technique

This will help to explain the technique we use to pressure wash buildings (both residentially and commercially) -  I
have used many techniques in the time I have been pressure washing, but the one we now use is what we have
found to work best for us, and is the most economical for our customers.

We use NO MORE pressure than absolutely necessary.  Our machines have adequate water flow in terms of gpm
(see "Equipment"), and we let water, and the cleaning chemicals we use, do the work, instead of using higher
pressures that can damage your building if used directly on certain sidings, or if forced into places (vents, eaves,
cracks, soffits) where water should not be aimed directly at.

We NEVER use ladders.  Anything we need to wash, we can get from the ground.  We can spray water 3+ stories
high, the hardest areas to get are the highest parts of a chimney, and areas where there is not a direct "line of sight"
between the pressure washing tip, and the object being washed.  We can even get cobwebs and insect nests (except
maybe the "stem") on the highest parts of your house. We DO NOT disturb or destroy birds nests, as that is considered
to be illegal in many cases.

We rinse shrubbery, landscaping, and windows thoroughly, but we might not be able to clean or thoroughly rinse
windows where there is a screen, as we don't want to stretch the screen with too much pressure while trying to clean
it.  When we are done, you will also need to watch for water gathered under doorways, and in windowsills.

PLEASE watch your pets for up to several hours after we have pressure washed your home.  The chlorine in our
chemicals, and the ammonia in animal urine can make pets sick when they "sniff and pee".

We DON'T drag our heavy equipment around your lawn.  We leave it on the truck, connect a water line from your
house to the equipment, and we have several hundred feet of pressure line that we run from our truck to your building.
All we carry is the line and guns, and buckets of cleaner that we draw from where we are actually working on your
building.

We will try to THOROUGHLY clean your building, but we will LEAVE something on the building rather than risk
damage to the siding or building while trying to clean it off.  There may be other services who will clean off more
than we might (in SOME cases, but NOT MANY) but they will charge a LOT more to do so.  If we can even get
80-90% of what they can get clean (we usually can get MUCH MORE than THAT) for 70-75% of what they charge,
that is a better deal for you.  The building will begin getting dirty soon after we leave, at our prices you can even call
us more often, but is it REALLY worth the extra money to pay someone else 25%-50% more than you pay us to
clean 10-15% (if even THAT?) more than we can clean???
