DIY pressure washers do not use the same amount of power or flow as industrial pressure washing equipment – so whilst you may be able to slightly improve the look of your driveway/patio, you would not be able to achieve the same results as having the area professionally cleaned. Pressure washing alone may not be the answer to the problem, if your area is heavily soiled in black/white spot or lichens, pressure washing simply won’t remove these. At Sammy's Cleaning Services, we’re experts in various chemical treatments, that will ensure your area will come up looking as good as the day it was fitted. Our knowledge and expertise will ensure you will enjoy your outdoor areas without ever needing to lift a finger – leaving you free to light the BBQ and relax!

Prices vary depending on a number of factors, including the size of the area, the severity of the soiling, type of surface, drainage and water pressure. We will always visit your property or site to take a detailed look at the job and discuss pricing with you.

Power washing, or pressure washing, is the application of a high pressure water spray to surfaces that need cleaned. It is used on concrete to remove mold, gum, and dirt stains. It is used on wooden decks to return the wood’s vibrant color. It is used on houses to remove pollution, mildew, and other problematic signs of aging.

For the majority of surfaces, an annual power washing should suffice. It does depend on the materials used to create/build the surface as well as the current condition of the surface, so you may need to increase the frequency of power washings

The terms “power wash” and “pressure wash” are completely synonymous. The fact is these terms are used interchangeably to describe the process of using high pressure water to clean surfaces. We use 3,000 PSI pressure washing machines, both hot and cold water units.

Another FAQ is what is PSI and GPM? PSI is the pounds per square inch. This is what delivers the punch during a power wash, forcing contaminants off the surface. GPM is the gallons per minute. This flushes the contaminants pushed off by the PSI. Both are very important. Some people do, however, prefer more PSI or more GPM depending on their needs. A farmer may want more GPM to flush contaminants away from the fresh soil; a business owner may want more PSI to get the grime off the exterior surface of his or her storefront.
