As you start researching your home for an exterior paint job, there are a few things you need to do. One to-do would be power washing your home before the painting starts. Do you need to power wash your home? Are there benefits? 

The Benefits Of Power Washing Your Home Before An Exterior Paint Job

A pressure washing or power washing removes loose paint, mold, dirt, grime, dust, and mud from objects such as buildings, vehicles, and concrete surfaces using high-pressure water spray. 

As mentioned above, power washing will remove everything listed above from the surface of your exterior walls. We like to use a 10-to-1 solution mixed with water and chemicals to ensure everything is drawn and does not grow back. 

When Should I Power Wash The Exterior Of My Home? 

The best time to power wash the exterior of your home would be before an exterior paint job and in the Spring and Fall seasons.
