A Basic Guide to Power Washing Your Home

The cold temperatures and weather during winter can take a heavy toll on your home. Typically, exposure to these elements result in greenish brown stains and mold-like grime on your home’s exterior. You can get rid of this eyesore by having your home power washed. But how often should you actually do this kind of thorough cleaning? Sunco Window Cleaning, an exterior and roof cleaning company, shares some tips below.

When to Power Wash Your Home

Many experts are likely to recommend fixed time frames on when your home should be power washed, such as once a year or once every two years. Generally, this is best done during spring because it allows you to remove any dirt or scum that has built up over the winter season. Other situations that may require you to power wash your home include the following:

  1. When you see mold and mildew growth.

  2. When you’re repainting your home.

  3. When you’re selling your home.

Nevertheless, be careful of overdoing the pressure wash. Power washing your home too many times may damage the wood or paint of your home.

Why You Should Power Wash Your Home

Here are some of the other reasons why it’s essential for you to power wash your home:

  1. To boost curb appeal – The presence of muck on your home’s exterior can ruin its visual appeal. Preserve its beauty by keeping it clean.

  2. To prevent spring pollen – Pollen will stick more easily and stain wood and brick if your home’s exterior still has muck from winter.

  3. To eliminate mold and bacteria – Grimy buildup can be a breeding ground for mold and bacteria as soon as the weather warms. This can further lead to health concerns and damage to your siding and gutters.
