Even if you fully dedicate yourself to keeping the inside of your property clean, it's easy to let the outside slip your mind. Whether you're lacking in time or you don't have the right equipment, using a pressure washing service can transform your outdoor spaces. Here are some of the differences it can make.

Patios and decks no longer feel slippy

When you don't have the time to clean your patio or deck regularly, algae develops on the surface. Before it becomes visible, the layer it creates produces a slippery environment, making it dangerous to walk on when the weather is damp or humid.

The pressure of the water from the washer will blast away algae, without you needing to do any hard labour with a yard brush. If the algae growth is severe, you may find it needs a helping hand in the form of chemical moss removers. In either case, the end result is patios and decks that look cleaner and don't feel slippy to walk on.

The spaces between your tiles will look fresh

If you sometimes look outside and feel as though your concrete tiles could do with a facelift, it may be because the spaces between each one look dirty. Commercial pressure washers usually come with a nozzle fitting that allows the user to direct streams of water into small spaces. When they do this while tackling tiles, they can shift large volumes of dirt and debris that gather there. As a result, the concrete outside your house will look pristine and you can feel proud of your backyard again.

You can prepare your fence for repainting

When the time comes to repaint your fence but the existing colour looks green and uneven, it's worth using pressure cleaning to make sure you start with a clean slate. Most DIY fence paints won't work well when you try to use them over moss, algae and grime. As such, it's worth hiring a professional to remove them for you.

Once your fences no longer suffer from algae overload, you should leave the wood to dry for a few days. Starting with completely dry wood gives the paint or varnish gives you a chance to permeate its porous spaces. As a result, the colour will look rich and should last for years to come.

When you use the services of the right professional, pressure cleaning will transform your home's outdoor spaces for the better.
