Messing with soap and hard water can be difficult, let us do it for you!

8 Tips on how to use a pressure washer:

1. Choose a pressure washer that is best for the job. Different housing materials can withstand various water pressures.
2. Protect you house's exterior fixtures, like lights, landscaping shrubs and plants, from harmful water pressure. Cover with drop cloths or plastic covering.
3. Manually scrub any visible dirt and grime from the surface you are power washing with a brush.
4. Mix the cleaning solution and fill the pressure washer's soap dispenser.
5. Connect a hose hooked to your water supply to the pressure washer.
6. Test how close you have to be to pressure wash a house by holding the pressure washer nozzle with both hands about 3 feet from the wall. Walk it in closer until you feel the spray is strong enough to remove dirt but not cause any damage.
7. Start at the top of the house and move down just like when you paint. 
8. Rinse from the top down with plain water. Allow the house to dry at least 2 days before painting.
