Dangers of Pressure Washing

Pressure Washing is usually the first thing homeowners think about when they want to spruce up their home's exterior appearance. However, pressure washing your home presents a multitude of dangers, and most homes are not built to withstand the destructive forces associated with high power pressure washing. 

1. Paint can be blasted off of the home.
2. Screens can be shredded.
3. Vinyl Siding can be damaged or knocked loose.
4. Double Pane windows can have seals broken.
5. Pressure can create leaks and holes in exterior surfaces, such as stucco, vinyl, and various sidings.

1. Tile roofs can have sealer damaged, causing leaks.
2. Shingle roofs will have granules removed and tar seals broken.
3. Wood planked roofs will have planks dislodged and seals broken.

High pressure can cause water to be forced into a home in areas the owner may not be aware of or able to see. Water can be forced behind Vinyl Siding, Hardi Plank, or cracks in Brick Motar, leading to molding inside the interior walls of your home.
