Pressure washing your home is a great way to make sure it stays in top-tier condition. While pressure washing makes your home appear cleaner, it can also prevent damage and health concerns such as mildew growth. For these reasons, it is recommended that you pressure wash your home once a year, at a minimum.
But when, exactly, is the best time to
pressure wash your home? Part of the answer is dependent upon where you live and the climate, but some general guidelines can help you determine the best time for you and your home.
The most obvious way to determine when you should pressure wash your home is when you begin to notice a build-up of dirt and grime, whether on your siding, in your driveway, or around your house. The visible build-up is a telltale sign that it’s time to do some deep cleaning.
One great rule of thumb for pressure washing is to avoid the wintertime. While this can be somewhat dependent on the weather and the climate you are in, it’s better to be safe and avoid the season altogether. This is because pressure washing in extremely cold temperatures can cause ice build-up around your home. This ice build-up can not only cause additional grime to stick to your house, but it can also cause more severe damage to your roofing or siding.
You may think that living in a place like Charleston, snow and ice isn’t much of a concern in the winter. In the case of a mild winter with moderate temperatures, pressure washing could still be a possible option. However, weather can be unpredictable, and it’s better to be safe than sorry when your home is on the line.
If you notice grime and dirt around your home in the winter, don’t worry. The spring season is right around the corner, and this is generally the perfect time to pressure wash your home. The weather is finally warming up, and people are likely starting to spend more time outside. Pressure washing your home during this time is a great way to start the season off on a fresh start.
While the spring is a great time to pressure wash your home, it is also the season known for having the most rainfall. When you schedule a time for your home to be pressure washed, make sure that it is on a day with a clear forecast and sunshine. It’s important to try and avoid any rain until your house is completely dry after the pressure washing process.
