Walk outside and take a hard look at your house. The siding, the driveway, maybe the deck. If they’re looking rough—green streaks, dark spots, a little slippery underfoot—it’s probably time for Pressure Washing for Homes.
Here in Vancouver and Portland, it doesn’t take long for moss and mildew to take over. Too much rain, too much shade, not enough dry days. And here’s the truth: that stuff doesn’t just sit there. It chews through siding, stains concrete, and makes decks slick as ice.
That’s where we come in. At CBS Pro Painters, we handle Power Washing Services all the time. Done right, it’s like flipping a switch—your siding’s brighter, your driveway looks fresh, and the whole place feels cared for again. Add in Exterior Power Washing, and you’re not just cleaning the house, you’re giving it a longer life.
Truth is, houses around here don’t stand a chance without some help. The rain doesn’t stop. The moss doesn’t stop. The mildew sure doesn’t stop. And once they get in, they don’t back off until you do something about it.
That’s why Pressure Washing for Homes matters. It clears the junk before it turns into real damage. Think of it like going to the dentist—you can skip the checkups, but you’ll pay for it later.
Here’s what a wash really does for you:
We’ve had homeowners ready to rip out decks or replace siding, and after a wash? They realized all they needed was a reset.
People always ask, “What can you safely pressure wash?” The truth—almost any exterior surface, if you use the right settings.
Pressure Washing for Homes removes dirt, black streaks, and mildew without stripping good paint.
Wood, composite, or stone—grime builds up fast. Washing brings back the natural look and makes them safer to walk on.
Concrete, pavers, even asphalt benefit from washing. Oil stains, moss, and grime don’t stand a chance.
Wood and vinyl fences both look fresher and last longer with a wash.
Plastic, wood, or metal sets—all can be cleaned up before summer.
And don’t forget gutters, brick walls, and retaining walls. That’s all part of Exterior Power Washing too.
Not all surfaces need the same approach. That’s why our Power Washing Services aren’t one-size-fits-all. Pressure, nozzles, and cleaning solutions are adjusted for each job.
We check for weak spots—loose siding, peeling paint, cracked boards. Blasting over them only makes things worse.
Plants get covered, furniture gets moved, and windows get protected. It’s the little details that keep your stuff safe.
This is where know-how matters. Siding gets light pressure, decks need a careful touch, and driveways need more force to lift stains. Adjusting correctly is the difference between a clean home and damaged siding.
We finish with a rinse and a full cleanup. Your home should look fresh, not like a construction site.
Sure, you can rent a washer at the hardware store and give it a go. Plenty of homeowners do. But here’s what we see time and time again:
We’ve been called out more than once to fix DIY mistakes—like siding stripped bare or decks scarred with deep grooves. It’s usually more expensive to fix than it would’ve been to hire pros in the first place.
It depends on your home and surroundings, but here’s a rough guide:
Think of pressure washing as routine maintenance—just like cleaning gutters or servicing your furnace.
Let’s be clear: pressure washers aren’t toys. They can cut skin, crack siding, and even break windows if used wrong. That’s why our team uses the right equipment, nozzles, and safety steps. We treat every home like it’s our own.
Yes, if done wrong. That’s why professional Power Washing Services are safer.
Yes, but older siding or paint needs a lighter touch. That’s where Exterior Power Washing makes a difference.
Absolutely. Paint won’t last if applied over dirt or mildew.
Most homes stay clean for a year or more, depending on shade and exposure.
Not unless you want to be. We just need water access to get the job done.
At the end of the day, Pressure Washing for Homes is one of the easiest, most effective ways to protect your property. From siding and fences to decks and driveways, a good wash clears away the grime that causes long-term damage. It’s affordable, fast, and makes your home look like new again.
