Pressure Washing, dialed to the surface

High-pressure surface cleaning for concrete, brick, pavers and stone.

What it is

Pressure Washing — done properly

Commercial-grade pressure washing for surfaces that can take the force. Rotary surface cleaners deliver an even, line-free finish across concrete, then we follow with a post-treatment that kills the organic growth left in the pores and control joints, brightens the concrete back toward brand-new, and helps the clean hold that look longer. Hot water is on the truck for oil, gum and grease when a job calls for it.

Why it matters here

What pressure washing is up against in the Northwest

Moss in the seams

Shaded Northwest concrete grows moss and black algae in every control joint. A surface cleaner pulls it out and our post-treatment keeps it from coming straight back.

Brightened, not just rinsed

A post-treatment kills the organic growth in the pores and lifts the grey haze, so the concrete comes back toward brand-new — and stays that way longer.

Pressure matched to material

Brick, pavers and stamped concrete each have a ceiling. We stay under it — no etching, no pitting, no lost jointing sand.

What's included

Every job, every time

  • Rotary surface cleaners for a streak-free, even finish
  • Post-treatment: kills organic growth, brightens concrete to like-new, extends the finish
  • Pressure matched to brick, pavers and stamped concrete — no etching
  • Hot water available for oil, gum and grease jobs
How it works

Four steps, no surprises

01

Clear & pre-treat

We move what is movable, then pre-treat moss, algae and organic staining so it releases instead of streaking.

02

Surface-clean the field

A rotary surface cleaner runs the open concrete at a controlled pressure for a line-free, even result.

03

Detail the edges

Borders, steps, curbs and tight spots are hand-wanded to match the field.

04

Post-treat & rinse

A post-treatment goes down across the concrete — killing the organic growth left in the pores and joints and brightening the surface toward new — then the whole area and adjacent siding are rinsed down.

What it costs

Driveways and walkways typically run $99–$350 depending on square footage and staining — the brightening post-treatment is included. Larger flatwork and multi-surface jobs are quoted after a look.

Pressure Washing FAQ

Before you book

What is the difference between this and soft washing?

Pressure washing uses mechanical force for hard surfaces that can take it — concrete, brick, pavers, stone. Soft washing uses low pressure and detergent for anything force would damage: siding, roofs, wood.

How long will the concrete stay looking new?

The post-treatment kills the organic growth in the pores and slows what regrows in the joints, so a cleaned-and-treated surface holds its look noticeably longer than a plain rinse. In deep shade it will still green up eventually — a light yearly touch-up or a maintenance plan keeps it ahead.

Will it damage my pavers or take out the sand?

Not the way we do it. We keep the pressure and angle controlled, and we can replace polymeric jointing sand as an add-on if a surface needs it.

Can you get oil stains out of the driveway?

Usually a good deal lighter. For oil and grease we bring hot water and a degreaser; deep, old staining fades but may not disappear completely.
