As winter rears its head, the window for when you should get your building professionally pressure washed narrows. But when is the optimal time to schedule a cleaning?
Pressure washing in spring or autumn often yields the best results. These seasons offer milder temperatures, which will reduce the risk of damage to your surfaces. Washing between March and November, when temperatures are more stable, ensures a thorough clean without the risk of freezing or rapid drying. Spring is particularly beneficial, as it removes grime accumulated during winter.
A professional pressure washing service can be highly effective in removing dirt, mould, and mildew from a building's exterior. However, it must be done correctly. Improper use of high pressure or hot water can damage surfaces, stripping paint, cracking render, or even harming the structure. Hiring a professional ensures a safe and effective clean.
Aside from seasonal considerations, it's wise to pressure wash if you notice visible build-up of mould, algae, or grime. Regular cleaning, typically once a year by trained operatives like CORE Grounds Maintenance, helps maintain the building's appearance and prevents long-term damage.
