Pressure Washing FAQ
Q: How is pressure cleaning beneficial for residential and commercial properties?
A: Having increased the importance of its use than ever before, pressure washing is the most effective way to remove dirt and bacteria, allergy residues, mildew and mold, layers of pollution and other forms of contaminates from the exterior surfaces of your home or business that are easily carried inside on the bottom of shoes and other means. Not only does it improve the cleanliness and overall health, but pressure washing prevents a lot of damage from occurring that is produced by harmful contaminates as well as increases curb appeal.

A: This question is difficult to give a straight forward answer as it has several factors involved.
