By We’ve all seen or heard horror stories of “pressure washing”. Someone we know, or it might even be us, had their home “pressure washed” and something was damaged by high pressure. In some cases, you end up with streaks and marks all over your siding from the high pressure wand. Sometimes it might be vinyl that is blown off the side of the house, water forced into the attic through soffit vents, or even gouges in things as tough as your concrete driveway or patio.
Today high pressure cleaning is not necessary. Sure, there are applications for high pressure water blasting, but not when it comes to cleaning home exteriors. Many of the surfaces on the exterior of your home are simply not tough enough to take high pressure water shot directly at it. Even things like concrete block, brick, and stucco are not meant to be cleaned with high pressure. In the case of brick, the sand face of the bricks can be removed, leaving permanent damage. With stucco, whole chunks can be blown off the wall, or water forced into cracks. In the case of the latter, water forced deep into the substrate can cause major failure of stucco later.
This is the scariest thing about “pressure washing”. Much of the damage caused by high pressure cleaning won’t show it’s ugly head right away. It can takes months or years before the problems start showing up. Some other damage may be more readily apparent, such as blown window seals causing foggy windows, or torn window screens.
