Pressure Washing in Tecate, CA.

Mountain pressure washing often means moss and algae on north-facing concrete and fences.
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.
