Best Times for Power Washing
Power washing is most effective when performed during specific times of the year, depending on weather conditions and the type of surface. Optimal periods typically include spring and early fall, when temperatures are moderate and there is less risk of rapid dirt accumulation or surface damage.
Spring is ideal for removing winter grime, mold, and algae buildup. It prepares surfaces for the warmer months and helps maintain curb appeal.
Performing power washings in early fall helps clear away accumulated debris and prepares surfaces for the winter season.
Power washings should be avoided during extreme cold or heat, as these conditions can affect cleaning effectiveness and surface integrity.
Ideal temperatures for power washing are typically between 50°F and 85°F, ensuring proper cleaning without surface damage.
