Months of winter snow and moisture leave behind a trail of gray, dingy decks and home exteriors dulled by dirt and mildew. A few cans of varnish and paint may seem like the logical solution but before you break out the paintbrushes, consider power washing the external walls and surfaces of your home to remove the build-up of dirt and mildew from wood, siding, and masonry. A new coat of paint may not be necessary once the dirt is rinsed away, but if it is, power washing also effectively removes old flaking paint and leaves a clean surface primed for new paint. New paint or not, power washing is a great way to spruce up the overall look of your house and can be completed in a short period of time.
Power washers are available to rent or buy for personal use, but can be both expensive and dangerous. Precautions are necessary when using power wash equipment, and in many cases it may be wiser to hire a professional rather than trying to do the job yourself. Used inappropriately, the high-velocity sprays and detergents used in power washing can damage your home or landscaping and in some cases, cause injury.
