High Pressure Washing Services

Pressure washing is the use of high-pressure water to remove dust, germs and mould from surfaces and objects. Pressure washing is an effective window cleaning method, particularly in industrial facilities and commercial centers.
Apart from washing windows, a high-pressure machine can also be used to clean outdoor surfaces such as wood and pavement. You must use the right pressure or risk causing irreparable damage to the window or timber.

why pressure washing?

There are a couple of reasons why pressure washing is a preferred method of washing windows. These are:

It is effective
When pressure washing your windows, you have to make sure that the machine is calibrated correctly so that the force is not excessive. Excessive pressure will crack or break the window altogether. Apart from ensuring a smooth, clean surface, this method does not leave any marks on your window.

Suitable for Hard to Reach Windows
Pressure washing enables the cleaner to reach windows that are not easily accessible, even if using a ladder. If you are using a pressure washer with 4000 PSI, it should have a range of 60 feet. If the machine has 3000 PSI, then it should have a range of at least 40 feet.

Saves Time
Unlike the traditional way of cleaning, pressure washing is fast and easy. As a cleaner, you get to enjoy seeing your window get clean within seconds.

It is Eco-Friendly
Using a pressure machine to clean a window is eco-friendly because you spend 75% less water than when you are using a sponge. Also, you can clean the window without using any toxic chemicals.​

Frequently asked questions:

​Are there Any Precautions to Take When Using a Pressure Washer??
This machine is just like any other machine. You need to read the user manual before using it. Also, you must know about the safety features to keep you and your loved ones safe. When using the pressure machine, keep in mind that a higher PSI should be used when removing tough residue.
​Other safety precautions include:
  • Never aim the nozzle at animals or people.
  • Never aim the nozzle at valuable items. 
  • Always use the machine while wearing safety glasses.
  • Avoid using ladders while operating the machine.
  • The nozzle tip should be tightly attached before pressing the nozzle.
  • All-electric washers must be connected to a properly grounded GFCI outlet
  • When operating the machine keep it away from children

Between Gas and Electric, Which Best?
Electrical pressure washers are ideal for home window cleaning because they mostly have a lower PSI. A lower PSI will not damage your window and other valuables. Gas pressure washers have a PSI of between 4,000 – 7000 PSI, which is too much for a high rise window cleaner.

Will Use of Pressure Washers Break the Windows?
With the right PSI, the window should not break. However, before cleaning it, it is essential to inspect it for cracks or a broken seal. To be on the safe side, always use the lowest pressure PSI and not more than 2000 PSI.
When cleaning, always use a wide spray pattern because it does not direct all the pressure in one place. Use a 40-degree tip and never go lower than 25 degrees. Also, instead of a direct spray to the window, spray from side to side at a 45-degree angle.

Will the Windows Caulking Loosen?
If your windows’ caulking is loose, then the pressure might damage it. It is for this reason why you should inspect the caulking before using a spray wash. If it is loose, it should be repaired. If the caulking is in good condition, then there will be no problem using a pressure washer.
​

Note: Before using a detergent, always check the user manual to know if the soap in question is compatible with the power wash.
