When You Should Consider Pressure Washing Your Home

July 6, 2019 By Griffs Services

Exposure to the elements and environmental factors, such as pollutants, can leave your home looking dull or grimy. Pressure washing your home provides a way for you to remove grime and dirt that build up over time. When should you think about giving your home’s exterior this type of cleaning? Consider looking into pressure washing your home under any of the following conditions. 

Before Putting Your Home on the Market

If you’re planning on selling your home, then you’re likely aware that it needs to look its best. Having a home exterior that is clean and shiny can have an immediate positive impact on potential homebuyers who drive past or visit for showings and open houses. It can also help boost your home’s value. Ideally, you should pressure wash your home before you even put it on the market. Washing the exterior of your home helps ensure that it doesn’t look dirty in photos that are part of your listing. This can help draw more homebuyers to your home. 

Before Painting Your Home

If you’re going to be putting a fresh coat of paint on your home or giving it an all new color, you should wash it beforehand. Pressure washing your siding before painting can help the paint last longer compared to painting on dirty siding. Painting a clean exterior also helps make the paint go on smoother for a more even appearance. 

As Routine Maintenance on Your Home

You don’t have to wait until your home exterior is covered in a few layers of grime before cleaning it. Pressure washing your home as a regular part of maintenance can help prevent this grime from being able to accumulate. When you keep your home’s exterior clean with this type of washing once a year or even a few or more times a year, you don’t have to worry about it having a dirty or dull appearance. The number of times you should have your home washed depends on certain factors, such as whether or not you have trees nearby that can leave sap and debris on your home.

After Severe Weather

Rain and wind can take a toll on your home’s appearance. Heavy downpours or frequent rain can make your home’s exterior more likely to develop mildew or mold growth, which discolors its appearance. High winds can blow debris, dirt and mud around, giving your home a soiled appearance. When a severe storm passes through or when there has been a lot of rain or wind, you should check the condition of your home’s exterior. If it’s dirty from debris and dirt or if you notice mold or mildew growing, it’s time to do some pressure washing. 

Consider Professional Pressure Washing

When it’s time to pressure wash your home, consider leaving it to the professionals. Doing this on your own involves a significant amount of time and effort. You also have to know how to use this type of cleaning equipment safely. Professionals have the skills and experience to operate pressure washing equipment and ensure that your home is properly cleaned.
