💦 Pressure Washing FAQ – West Texas Pressure Services

(Serving Abilene, Winters, and surrounding Big Country areas)

1. What is pressure washing?

Pressure washing uses high-pressure water spray to remove dirt, grime, mold, mildew, and stains from surfaces like driveways, sidewalks, siding, and roofs. It’s a fast and efficient way to restore the look of your home or business exterior.

2. What’s the difference between pressure washing and soft washing?

Pressure washing uses high PSI to clean tough surfaces like concrete and brick.
Soft washing uses low pressure combined with eco-friendly cleaning solutions — ideal for delicate surfaces like roofs, siding, and wood decks.

We do both! We’ll choose the right method for your job to avoid damage and ensure a long-lasting clean.

3. How often should I pressure wash my home or property?

We recommend:

  • Once per year for most homes (siding, driveways, etc.)

  • Every 3-6 MONTHS for high-traffic commercial areas

  • MONTHLY for restaurants and dumpster pads

  • Before listing your home for sale or hosting events

4. Is pressure washing safe for my roof?

Yes — but only if done right. We use soft wash techniques for all roof cleaning jobs to avoid shingle damage and preserve your roof’s life. High-pressure should never be used on a roof.

5. Will pressure washing damage my concrete or paint?

Not when done by professionals. We adjust pressure settings based on surface type, and we always test before we treat. Old or chipped paint may flake off, but we’ll give you a heads-up beforehand.

6. What types of properties do you service?

We handle:

  • Residential homes

  • Restaurants

  • Commercial buildings

  • Parking lots

  • Gas stations

  • Industrial warehouses

  • Apartment complexes

  • School campuses

  • Churches

No job too big or small — from dumpster pads to stadiums.

7. How long does pressure washing take?

Most residential jobs take 1–3 hours.
Commercial or multi-surface projects may take half a day or more.
We’ll give you a clear time estimate before we begin.

8. What should I do to prepare for pressure washing?

  • Move vehicles away from work areas

  • Cover outdoor electrical outlets and light fixtures

  • Remove furniture or décor from porches and patios

  • Keep pets and kids indoors during cleaning

We’ll handle the rest.

9. Do you use chemicals or just water?

For most jobs, we use safe, biodegradable cleaning solutions to break down mold, algae, oil, and grime before rinsing. These are pet-safe and environmentally friendly.

10. How much does pressure washing cost?

Pricing varies based on size, surface type, and grime level. But here’s a ballpark:

  • Driveways: $99–$250

  • House wash: $250–$600
