Visible Grime and Dirt: This is the most obvious sign. If you see layers of dirt, mud, mildew, algae, moss, or other grime buildup on your siding, deck, driveway, fence, or roof, it’s time for a cleaning. Don’t let it go too long, as it can become harder to remove and potentially cause damage.

Fading Paint or Stain: Dirt and grime can act like a film on painted or stained surfaces, dulling the color and making it look faded. Pressure washing can remove this layer of buildup, restoring the vibrancy of the paint or stain. This is especially important before repainting or restaining, as it ensures proper adhesion.

Mold, Mildew, or Algae Growth: These not only look unsightly but can also be health hazards and cause structural damage. Green or black patches are a clear indication of mold, mildew, or algae growth and should be addressed immediately with pressure washing (and potentially other treatments).

Slippery Surfaces: Algae and moss growth on walkways, patios, and decks can become slippery, creating a safety hazard. Pressure washing can remove these growths, making your outdoor spaces safer.

Increased Allergens: Mold, mildew, pollen, and dust accumulate on exterior surfaces and can contribute to allergies. Pressure washing can help remove these allergens, creating a healthier environment around your property.
