- Ask how they protect plants, windows, and outdoor lighting from cleaning solutions.

- For roofs, ask whether the method is approved by your shingle manufacturer.
- Ask whether they'll pre-wet and rinse plants before and after applying cleaning solutions.
Frequently asked questions
How often should I wash my house?
In humid, shaded areas, many homeowners clean siding every year or two. Watch for green or black streaks on the north and shaded sides.
Is pressure washing safe for vinyl siding?
Low-pressure soft washing is safer. High pressure can force water behind siding and damage the surface.
Can roofs be pressure washed?
Roofs should be cleaned with low-pressure soft washing. High pressure can strip granules from shingles and shorten the roof's life.
What affects the cost of pressure washing in Hot Springs?
Pricing usually depends on the size of the house or the square footage of the surface, how heavy the mildew is, whether soft washing chemicals are needed, and access on steep lots or tall walls. Bundling the house, driveway, and deck in one visit often costs less than separate trips.
