Pressure Washing in Charlotte & Lake Norman

Professional exterior cleaning using the right technique for every surface. We match the pressure to the job for safe, effective results.

Not All Pressure Washing Is the Same

When most people say "pressure washing," they mean getting their exterior surfaces clean. But here's something many homeowners don't realize: using high pressure on the wrong surface can cause serious damage.

Pressure washing a roof can strip away protective granules from shingles. Blasting vinyl siding can force water behind it and crack the material. That's why we take a different approach. We assess every surface and use the technique that actually works, whether that's high-pressure washing for concrete or low-pressure soft washing for delicate materials.

The result? Clean surfaces without the damage. Your roof, siding, driveway, and deck all get the treatment they need, not a one-size-fits-all blast of water.

Soft Wash vs. Pressure Wash: When We Use Each

  • Soft Wash (under 500 PSI): Roofs, siding, painted surfaces, wood decks, fences
  • Moderate Pressure (500-1,500 PSI): Brick, certain stone, some concrete pavers
  • High Pressure (1,500-4,000 PSI): Concrete driveways, sidewalks, patios, pool decks

Why We Recommend Soft Washing for Most Surfaces

Soft washing isn't just gentler. It actually cleans better for organic growth like algae, mold, and mildew. Here's why:

High pressure blasts away the visible growth, but the roots remain embedded in the surface. Within weeks or months, it grows right back. Soft washing uses a cleaning solution that kills organic growth at the root. The pressure is just enough to apply the solution and rinse it away.

The result? Longer-lasting results. A soft-washed roof stays clean for years, not months. Siding that would grow back green in a few weeks stays clean for 1-3 years depending on conditions.

We still use true pressure washing when it's the right tool. Concrete driveways, sidewalks, and patios can handle the pressure and need it to remove embedded stains. But for most of your home's exterior, soft washing is the smarter choice.

Pressure Washing Questions

Pressure washing uses high water pressure (1,500-4,000 PSI) to blast away dirt and grime from hard surfaces like concrete. Soft washing uses low pressure (under 500 PSI) combined with specialized cleaning solutions to safely clean delicate surfaces like roofs, siding, and painted wood. The cleaning solution does the work, not the pressure.

Yes, if the wrong technique is used. High-pressure washing can strip paint, damage siding, remove shingle granules, and etch soft stone. That's why we assess every surface and use the appropriate method. Roofs and siding get soft washed, while concrete driveways and sidewalks get pressure washed.

We clean virtually any exterior surface using the right technique. Concrete driveways, sidewalks, and patios get pressure washed. Roofs, siding, fences, and decks get soft washed. Brick can handle moderate pressure. We'll recommend the best approach for your specific surfaces during your estimate.

Most homes benefit from annual cleaning, though it depends on your environment. Homes with heavy tree coverage, north-facing walls, or near water may need cleaning more often. Driveways typically need cleaning every 1-2 years. We can recommend a maintenance schedule based on your property.
