Pressure Washing in Carlsbad, CA.
Pressure Washing for Carlsbad homes, done by licensed San Diego County technicians. Concrete, pavers, stucco, fences, decks, and roofs all need different pressures and different approaches. Too much pressure etches concrete, shreds stucco, and strips paint.

Coastal homes battle salt deposition on stucco and concrete plus sand-in-grout on patios.
Can pressure washing damage my home's stucco?
Yes, if done wrong. Stucco is porous and fractured at a microscopic level. High-pressure water forces into the cracks, fractures them further, and eventually strips the paint or blows out the texture. We soft-wash all stucco with a low-pressure chemical approach, never direct pressure, and the stucco comes out clean and intact.
Will pressure washing remove oil stains from concrete?
Fresh oil (within days) comes up with a degreaser and hot water pressure wash. Old, soaked-in oil requires a degreaser-soak plus repeated pressure-wash cycles and sometimes a poultice treatment. Very old oil on porous concrete sometimes has to be covered with a concrete stain or coating rather than removed. We'll tell you what you're dealing with before we start.
