Power Washing Richmond Hill

FAQs – Power Washing Richmond Hill

​

​

Q: What types of surfaces do you power wash in Richmond Hill?

A: We power wash driveways, patios, decks, fences, concrete, brick, siding, retaining walls, walkways, garage floors, storefronts, and more. We use the appropriate pressure and technique for each surface to avoid damage.

 

 

Q: Is power washing safe for my home or business property?

A: Yes. Our experienced technicians adjust pressure levels based on surface type and use safe, eco-friendly detergents when needed. We take every precaution to protect landscaping, windows, and delicate materials. Besides the regular power washing, we utilize soft wash and down-streaming methods to properly and safely clean the building walls, stucco and other materials that could be easily damaged by using high pressures. Soft wash and downstreaming focus on using eco-friendly detergents to loosen contaminants, and with the help of clean and highly concentrated water, the contaminants are washed off.

 

 

Q: What’s the difference between power washing and pressure washing?

A: Power washing uses heated water, which helps break down oil, grease, and grime more effectively. Pressure washing typically uses cold water but can still deliver excellent results. We provide both based on the cleaning requirements.

 

 

Q: How often should I have my property power washed?

A: We recommend power washing at least once or twice a year—especially in spring and fall—to remove dirt, mold, mildew, salt, and environmental buildup. Commercial properties with heavy foot traffic may need more frequent cleaning.

 

 

Q: Can you remove oil stains, algae, or graffiti?

A: Yes. We specialize in stain removal, including oil, rust, algae, mildew, and graffiti. We use professional-grade equipment and detergents for long-lasting results. Oil stains need to be removed as soon as the stain appears or soon after for top results. Soaked concrete or asphalt with oil for days or months may not be removed entirely.

​

Q: How much does pressure washing cost in Richmond Hill?

A: The cost of pressure washing in Richmond Hill depends on the size and type of surface. On average, driveway cleaning starts at $250, with larger projects like commercial plazas or parking lots quoted individually. We always provide free, no-obligation on-site estimates so you know exactly what to expect.

​

Q: What’s the difference between power washing, pressure washing, and soft washing?

A: Pressure washing uses cold water at high pressure, while power washing adds heated water to cut through oil, grease, and salt stains. Soft washing uses low pressure with eco-friendly detergents to safely clean siding, stucco, roofs, and other delicate surfaces. In Richmond Hill, we offer all three methods to match the right cleaning technique with your property’s needs.
