FAQ About Pressure Washing in Charlotte NC
Power Washing Charlotte FAQ | Call (704) 668-3514 | Fully Insured Pressure Cleaning services in Charlotte NC and all surrounding areas.
What is the best way to safely clean vinyl siding?
Using low pressure and the right cleaning solution is the safest and most efficient method for cleaning vinyl siding. Unlike high pressure, which can cause damage and water intrusion, low pressure prevents Zorro marks and other issues. The proper cleaning solution also kills mold and mildew at the root, preventing regrowth.
When is the optimal time to get my house washed?
The best time of year to wash your house in Charlotte, NC, is when temperatures are above 40 degrees. A Low-Pressure House Wash can effectively remove algae, mildew, and mold from your home during this time. While warmer temperatures can enhance the cleaning process by allowing for quicker dwell times, it is essential to note that gutter whitening may only be as effective if temperatures are around 70 degrees. This is because a different solution is used for gutter whitening, which becomes less active in colder temperatures.
What is Gutter Whitening?
Gutter whitening is the process of removing tiger stripes and black oxidation from the surface of gutters. Unlike a regular house wash service, gutter whitening is a separate service. This service is available when temperatures are 70 degrees or above. In addition to removing mold, mildew, and algae, our regular house wash service also cleans gutters.

What is included in our regular house wash service?
Our regular house wash service includes the removal of mildew, algae, mold, spider webs, and grime. However, some items must be included in this service and may require additional attention.
