FAQ
The Ins And Outs of How We Do Business
-
Why do I need My House Power Washed?It is imperative to maintain a clean property for the aesthetic value and much-desired curb appeal, along with providing lasting protection against building material degradation. When mold, mildew, algae and other airborne contaminants are allowed to remain on the exterior surfaces of a property, they will contribute to premature paint failure and can also cause permanent staining on your siding material, concrete & gutters. Their root systems will grow into surfaces causing it to split and crack. Washing the home's exterior is an easy and affordable way to improve the appearance of your home. Even homes with brick and stucco siding can be washed if done correctly. Did you know you can add as much as 5 to 10 percent to the value of your home by presenting it in a clean, well taken care of state? Another reason is health. Mildew and mold are not good for your respiratory system and can create allergies. If your home is washed regularly, the mildew cannot spread to the inside of your home and start new growth inside.
-
How often should I get my house washed?You should get your house washed every two years. Some lighter colors of siding that are in the shade a lot may require washing every year.
-
Will cleaning chemicals harm my plants?All of our cleaning is absolutely safe for plants, people and pets when handled properly. Our exclusive power wash cleaning method uses ultra safe self neutralizing cleaning and rinsing agents. All of our detergents are biodegradable and non-abrasive.
-

If you are not going to be home on day of service, please remember to close all windows, clear your driveway and put away fragile decorations on your home and deck.

Can you remove oil stains on concrete from my garage or driveway that have been there for years?Of course! Oil stains can seep through concrete and after years of resting in the concrete it makes it much more difficult to restore a brand new look. Power Washing Wrangler utilizes chemicals and detergents that dig beneath the concrete and eat away at the oils. Some stains will be completely eliminated and others will leave a small gray stain left after the cleaning. Either way, your concrete will look much better after being restored and cleaned

There are small very dark raised spots on my siding in places. What is this and can you remove them?The black raised spots are called Artillery Fungus spores are caused by a mushroom that grows in rotted mulch, bark or wood chips. They are found in areas that are near or above mulch. This fungus shoots its spores in the air, hence, the names Artillery or Shotgun Fungus. Over time, the dots created by flying fungus will dissipate. Artillery fungus is a fungus that usually spends most of its time in gardens and on mulch. The artillery fungus is a white-rotting, wood-decay fungus that likes to live on moist landscape mulch. Unfortunately, not much can be done to remove the dots. The only other option besides powerwashing is to sand off the spots by hand, but you will leave marks on your siding. The only real option is to put up new siding and be sure to leave space between your flower beds and your siding. Preventing further outbreaks is the best way to deal with this problem. Once the Artillery Fungus has made an appearance, the cure is to completely remove all bark and hardwood mulch from around the home. This includes removing a few inches of the topsoil underneath the mulch bed, as the spores can still grow in the soil. Replace the mulch with non-organic matter, such as decorative stone or rubber mulch products. A way to safely remove these spores from siding or trim have not been found.

Can you wash a house or deck in the rain?Yes. Your house is going to get wet when we wash it, so there is little difference to rain. We will reschedule if there is danger involved, such as lightning.

Satisfaction Guarantee
The Company does strive for a 100% customer satisfaction and will work with homeowners when this does not occur. This agreement to provide services is in no way a guarantee that all stains will be removed completely. Some stains cannot be removed by power washing. Tree sap, artillery fungus, oils, grease, chemicals, splatters from stains and paints are examples of materials that cannot be removed by conventional means. We make every attempt to point these areas out to the customer when quoting the project. Sometimes these stains cannot be removed at all. Client understands that any blemish or flaw or any existing oxidation will be more noticeable after cleaning. Client understands that company may not find every flaw and is not reliable if it is more noticeable after wash unless it is found to be of negligence on company end. If we do a site unseen estimate, client understands we are not reliable for any unacknowledged flaw and will do our best to point this out at date of cleaning. Windows may become water spotted as a result of our services. Window cleaning is NOT included unless stated beforehand.
