Although we still have two months or so before winter in the Atlanta area of Georgia, here are three pressure washing projects you should complete to winterize your home. At Pressure Washing Force, we can schedule them all on one day or spread them out to make them more convenient for you.

Pressure Washing Should be Left to Professionals

Many believe they can buy or rent a pressure washer to DIY these tasks and save money. However, by the time you figure in the cost for buying the correct, environmentally-safe landscaping and pet-friendly detergent, plus add in your time to figure the correct pressure for each project and the time to do it, you could hire Pressure Washing Force and get a professional service.

#1 — Clean the Gutters
When the trees have shed their leaves and before the winter’s cold rains and snow come, you need to clear the leaves and debris from your gutters. Many homeowners neglect this chore, and then in the depths of winter, they have giant, dangerous icicles hanging from their gutters that threaten pets and humans alike. The Georgia pine needles are the worst because they gather at the gutter’s seam and create a nest or dam. The water sits there and rusts the gutter, or worse, freezes to create the dam and eventual waterfall that freezes hanging from the gutter.

#2 — Pressure Wash the Deck
Actually, for your deck, it is more of a power wash. You don’t want to use too much pressure on the deck to get rid of the BBQ mess, and leftover mold and mildew. Too much pressure will take the protective stain off your beautiful deck, leaving it unprotected from the rain, snow and ice that will accompany the winter months.

#3 — Pressure Wash the Siding and Soffit
The benefit of pressure washing your siding before the winter months set in is to wash away the salt, mold spores and other contaminants that build up during the hot summer. Cleaning your siding will create healthier air for your family. Respiratory problems compound during the winter months.

Therefore, you should contact the professionals at Pressure Washing Force to schedule these specific projects before winter. Call us today for an evaluation and estimate.
