Pressure washing a patio is not as easy as most homeowners assume. Residential garden hoses cannot adequately wash away grime, dirt and mud that settles into the pits and pores of patio materials. Cleaning a patio with a pressure washer can also lead to chipped paint, a damaged lawn and muddy water splashed onto your home’s exterior! Patio cleaning is best suited for a professional home exterior cleaning company in Ontario.
Our soft wash patio cleaning process begins with the application of a powerful but safe solvent that dissolves embedded dirt and debris. Your brick, concrete or wood patio, can then be gently rinsed, with low water pressure and without damage to your landscaping or lawn or creating a mess.
For wood patio cleaning in Ontario, we use the same professional equipment to power wash patios as we use home, we use a different system. “Softwashing” is like power washing except the water pressure is kept much lower. This is necessary to protect the paint, stains and finishes. Soft washing a patio also keep the wood from splintering which can cause structural issues. We have the knowledge and years of experience to determine the exact pressure needed. If the patio has considerable damage then we will use the lowest pressure necessary to get the job done without further damage.
Brick patios are often more difficult to clean than wood or concrete. Brick patio tiles have raised, textured areas along the top of their surface. These sections make brick patio cleaning challenging, even if using a pressure washer.
Our Ontario brick patio cleaning service begins with solvents that can easily reach those hidden areas of dirt and dust, dissolving even the toughest mud and ground-in debris. These detergents will eliminate moss, mold and algae that is growing in between those cracks and crevices! We then use special brushes for deep cleaning brick patios, to push away all the thick and unsightly grit and debris.
Pressure washing a concrete patio does much more than make the patio look cleaner. Organic dirt, dust, silt and other such debris that gets caught in the cracks and crevices of concrete can get blown into the lawn and will then ruin its appearance too. Cleaning a concrete patio can also remove moss, mold and algae. When this debris becomes damp, it becomes slick and very slippery, creating a hazard for anyone that is walking on the patio!
Don’t rely on a garden hose or DIY online videos that attempt to show you how to clean a patio, but leave this job to the professionals. Ontario Pressure Washing has several years of experience in patio cleaning in Ontario and the neighboring communities, and our professional soft wash techniques and specialty brushes will guarantee all areas of your home’s patio are spotlessly clean and ready for you and your family to enjoy!
