Professional pressure washing and power washing give your home exterior the deep cleaning that it deserves. Whether you have a one story or two story house, it is best to use a professional pressure washer to pressure wash a house. Removing dirt, grime, algae, mold, and other harmful substances from the home’s exterior, pressure washing protects the aesthetic curb appeal of the exterior of your home, the health of everyone in the household, and saves time and hassle. Prepare your home for pressure washing before the pressure washer technicians arrive by following the details below.
Secure the Windows
We all love a good blast from the water hose on a hot summer’s day – but only when we’re outside, in our bathing suits, anticipating the spray! Imagine the surprise when water from a power washer unexpectedly blasts through the windows into the home! Okay, so maybe that’s a bit dramatic. But, the gist of things is that secure windows prevent water from seeping in and causing damage galore to the interior structure, carpet, and flooring, windows, etc. The high pressure or a certain degree angle is enough to move things around at times and should be safely secured.
Secure the Doors
Just as securing the windows is important, so too should the doors be tightly secured before the arrival of the pressure washing technicians. Secure doors prevent water leakage into the home, which can cause the same types of damages that occur when water leaks in through the windows.
Move It and Cover It
Furniture, toys, plants and flowers, garden tools, garden hose, and other items on the outside of the home should be moved to another location to prevent them from getting wet and/or sustaining water damage. Moving items before damages occur prevent worry and the need for expensive repairs!
Electricity Matters
Water and electricity are enemies who aren’t afraid to duke it out the moment they meet. Protect yourself from danger and expensive repairs by unplugging extension cords plugged in outside and by covering any electrical outlets. Waterproof plastic covers also prevent electrical concerns and cost only a few bucks from a home improvement store.
Arrange a Playdate
Although a playdate isn’t necessary, it does keep children occupied and out of the way of the technicians at the home to pressure wash. Kids love water and can easily get in the way. This may cause injuries to small children. If you cannot arrange a playdate, make sure to keep children otherwise occupied and out of the way.
Don’t Forget the Pets
Pets may become anxious when a group of strange people comes to the house. In response to their fear or worry, they may bark or show other signs of displeasure that cause them to act out in other ways. Furthermore, pets, like our kids, can unintentionally get in the way of the technician’s power washing the home and cause accidents and/or injuries.
