5 Things to Remember When Choosing a Power Washing Company in Mathews NC
Not all who claim to be professionals are, in fact, experienced professionals. We have all seen this. Most of us have learned this from trial and error. So here is a list of five things to remember when looking for a power washing or pressure washing company in Matthews NC.
1. Not all Power Washing Companies Have the Right Insurance
Mistakes happen. When you hire a power washing company, you are asking someone to spray pressurized water at your possessions and property. While most power washing companies will claim that their employees are trained professionals, anyone can trip. Imagine your power washer cleaning the side of your home. He is careful to avoid your windows as he cleans. He is almost done when he finds the kids’ missing baseball with his foot and slips. When a window breaks, who will be responsible for replacing the window? Make sure the company you use has not just general liability insurance so they can repair the window, but also worker’s compensation insurance for any injuries the power washing employee may have sustained while working on your home.
2. The Highest Pressure Is Not Always the Right Pressure
Ask your potential pressure washing company if they change the pressure level as they clean. If they are professionals, they will tell you that they use the lowest pressure possible and slowly increase until they find the right pressure to clean the surface. Power washing your driveway does not require the same amount of pressure as power washing the side of your home, or your old fence. Using too much pressure can cause damage to any surface.
3. Does Their Work Come With a Written Guarantee ?
You schedule your power washer to come while you are at work on a Friday. You get home after dark and can’t inspect their job well done. You walk through your property Saturday morning and see they missed a few spots on your back patio. Make sure to have it down in writing that you have a certain period to call them and let them know you’re not satisfied with their work and they will return for no charge.
4. Not All Chemicals are Safe For Plants
Once you have decided where you need power washed, ask your power washer if your plants will be safe. Spray and water runoff are unavoidable, and if chemicals are being used that will kill your plants, you should know in advance. So that one, you can be prepared to buy new plants. Or two, you can hire someone else.
5. Ask for Before and After Pictures
There is nothing wrong with asking for these. After all, you want to make sure that what you need to be cleaned, has been cleaned before. Have a dirty fence or a grimy patio ? Make sure you know what to expect from the power washing or pressure washing that you are about to pay for. It will save you any potential disappointment if you know that what you’re expecting might not be possible.
Pressure Washing your Pool Area and Screen Enclosure
Are you not using your pool and outdoor spaces as much as you used to because of your:
1) Children moved out, and it became deserted ?
2) Have less time to enjoy this part of your house ?
3) Are lacking the previous enthusiasm for it ?
4) Haven’t used it for so long – it looks grubby and uninviting ?
5) Had no time or money to maintain it ?
6) Need to tackle the algae build-up and mildew-growth on your own ?
No need to be embarrassed if you have not yet had the chance to do something about it. After all, cleaning the pool area by yourself is not something you do in the afternoon, especially not when you also have a screen enclosure to take care of. Whatever your choice of cleaning might be – on your hands and knees with a scrub and bucket of water or equipped with a garden hose – it will always be a time-consuming, wet and dirty job.
I have looked around to see which product I could safely recommend when cleaning your outdoor surfaces. We here at Reliable Pressure Washing in Mathews and Charlotte NC are doing our part in keeping the environment unpolluted and less burdened with chemicals. Instead of using regular chlorine bleach, I tried out a product called Oxygen Bleach (OxiClean) as an environmentally safe alternative. Many people think ‘bleach is bleach,’ but the bleach found in most homes is chlorine bleach. The active ingredient in chlorine bleach is sodium hypochlorite – quite the aggressive chemical as you know from reading the label of many cleaners.
How well does a non-bleach cleaner work ?
Instead of Washing your surfaces with harsh chemicals that will do damage to the surface, flower beds, and your health by breathing in the toxic fumes, you can use this other product called Oxygen Bleach. This cleaner is made of hydrogen peroxide and soda ash and though it is quite a powerful cleaner and just about as green as you can get. However, I found it not working well enough for commercial use and to replace bleach. Nowadays, we use a highly diluted mixture of regular bleach with water to break apart dirt, algae, and mildew molecules. This solution is not toxic to surrounding plants or the worker applying it !
If you embark on doing this task yourself, now it’s time to roll up your sleeves, use some elbow grease and mechanical agitation by using a scrub brush on a pole to get your pool area squeaky clean.
Will Pressure Washing Damage my Asphalt Shingle Roof ?
While it is widely known, that pressure Washing is an effective way to clean surfaces from lichen, (a fungus, that has no roots and grows symbiotically with algae to form a crust-like growths) algae, mold and mildew as well as general dirt, it sometimes raises the question, if pressure Washing is actually safe and not damaging the surface.
To understand this, you have to know what you are dealing with: Your asphalt shingle roof provides an excellent food source for these organisms giving them everything they need to grow. Asphalt shingles today contain limestone fillers to help add weight to the shingles. The algae feed on these limestone fillers, and over time, this feeding process by the algae will degrade your roof’s shingles. This can result in decreasing the life span of your roof by years.
To remove algae and lichen, the water pressure has to be stronger than what’s coming out of your ordinary garden hose. Without using a power washer with a strong jet of water, the dirt or lichen wouldn’t come off. However, the pressure used can be adjusted from low to high to make it safe for most surfaces. A professional technician operating a pressure washer would always inspect the surfaces first and then decide and pick the correct setting.
If your roof shingles are already damaged or loose, you probably don’t want to have it pressure cleaned. At that point, a repair or even a new roof could be in place. But generally speaking, pressure Washing an asphalt shingle roof is safe when done by an expert. However, if you don’t aspire to clean your roof and realize how much (dirty) work it is, just give me a call. I have the knowledge, the experience, and the equipment to get your roof back into shape, looking as good as new !
