Pressure washing a house has benefits for the property that many homeowners do not know about and Nashville Clean Windows and Pressure Washing thinks that that needs to change. The company wants homeowners not only to learn about these benefits but to understand the reasons behind just how important they are.
Pressure washing is a method of cleaning that uses pressurized water to clean the exterior areas of both residential and commercial properties. Pressure washers use a narrow high-pressure jet moving at a very high speed to literally blast dirt away. It is a highly effective method of cleaning.
Although most homes are kept clean on the inside keeping the outside clean is rarely given the same degree of thought. Houses will commonly develop mold, mildew, algae and moss around the exterior and some of these issues can be exacerbated if part of the property is in shade. This is not only unsightly but can ruin the external appearance of the house and in addition, it can actually cause damage. Regular maintenance by a professional company using pressure washers can help prevent future expensive repairs.
Mold and mildew are well known as allergens and it is especially important that consideration be given to removing them if someone in a household suffers from allergies. Pollen is often blamed for triggering allergies, but it might not always be pollen so removing mold and mildew using a pressure washing system may help remove some of the health hazards that allergy sufferers encounter.
It is not only health hazards that pressure washing can help with though. Realtors will often tell sellers that properties should always look their best as first impressions matter. Not judging at first sight is an often-repeated admonition but the reality is that people do, and a dirty home can be instantly unappealing.
Joseph McClintoch, a Franklin resident who recently sold his house said, “We had our house on the market for some time but not much interest was being shown. I asked the agent why and she said, ‘The outside looks dirty and it’s putting buyers off so getting it cleaned might help.’ I went online looking for pressure washing Franklin and found Nashville Clean Windows. I had the exterior cleaned and the difference it made to selling was incredible. The house looked better and we had our first serious offer within a week.”
Although the benefits to would-be sellers may seem obvious, selling a home is not the only situation in which pressure washing is important. Anyone considering an exterior paint or varnish project should give it serious consideration too. Preparing an area prior to painting or varnishing is critical to the success of the project. Power washing is one of the best ways this can be done as it will remove loose paint or varnish in addition to dirt and grime and will help prepare the area for further work.
Pressure washing is also environmentally friendly as it does not use harmful chemicals. Although chemical washing solutions can do some of the jobs that pressure washing can do those chemicals are usually harsh and can be hazardous. Surprisingly to many, pressure washers use less water than other cleaning methods. It is estimated that they can use up to 70% less water.
It is not just walls, paths and fences etc. that can benefit from pressure washing though. Roof cleaning is not something that homeowners immediately think of but again there are benefits to having it done. Moss and algae can damage a roof and removing them may expose areas of damage that need urgent repair. Dirt and grime will also be removed from the shingles and the gutters will benefit from being professionally cleaned out. In addition, the color of the roof will also be restored giving it a like new appearance.
