Post-wash care: what to do (and not do) after your pressure washing appointment

A good wash lasts 12–18 months. Here's how to make sure it lasts on the long end of that range.

• Don't power-wash anything else nearby (undoes solution's residual)
• Don't let sprinklers hit siding right after
• Let concrete dry fully before parking on it
• Keep pets off treated decks for 4 hours

• Rinse siding lightly if pollen hits heavily
• Sweep away leaves promptly from concrete
• Watch for signs of anything I flagged (loose caulk, damaged siding)

• Trim vegetation 12 inches from walls
• Redirect sprinklers away from siding
• Keep gutters clear (drips create streaks quickly)
• Sweep the driveway monthly to keep leaves from staining

• Sunny house: 18–24 months
• Shaded house: 12–15 months
• Heavy tree cover: 9–12 months
• After any construction/painting nearby: anytime

• Small green spots reappearing → dwell time longer next wash
• Streaks appearing on gutters → gutter clean needed
• Concrete darkening in patches → seal it

Repeat customers get 10% off their second wash. I keep it simple — no memberships, no auto-renewals. Just a thank-you for coming back.
