I'm looking to get some pressure washing done around the house and would like to know if any fellow Woodcroft neighbors have recommendations. Of course, recommendations from others are welcome, but I need someone who knows how to clean a wood-sided house (stained cedar planks, I think) without causing damage. From my understanding, this actually involves pre-spraying with a chemical solution, using a much lower pressure spray, and possibly a bit of scrubbing.
I've looked on craigslist, but my worry is that I'll just get someone who wants to blast everything full-bore. I already have one guy who comes by every once in a while to do outside odds & ends and that's what he wants to do, even to the roof
! The whole idea of blasting that much water at the side or roof of my house downright scares me.
Specifically, I want to get all the following done:
Pressure wash:
- driveway
- walkways
- Fence (both sides). Fence is wood and not painted or stained.
- bricks of foundation
- patio (front & rear). One is painted, one is not.
Clean off roof (blow off pine needles, remove small patches of moss, possibly remove light stains, etc)
If anyone has a house like mine and knows of someone who does the job right, please drop me a line. Also, since I really don't know for sure what should and should not be done, please lend advice as well.
Thanks!
Mike
