Spring is a much-welcomed season in Canada and it’s also a busy season for cleaning up the property for summer.
The hard surfaces around your house will have accumulated dirt and grime over the past year and one of the best tools to thoroughly clean them is a pressure washer. They are available in three different types: corded electric, battery powered and the less popular – gas. Cleaning power is measured by PSI (pounds per square inch) and GPM (gallons per minute).
Generally, the higher the PSI and GPM, the more heavy duty the unit. It’s a good idea to choose a model with adjustable pressure for the different surfaces you’ll be cleaning. Pressure washers are available with accessories for cleaning large areas like the driveway, deck, fence, walkway and the walls of your home.
Other nozzles can clean smaller jobs like gutters, outdoor furniture, barbecue grill, garbage cans and recycling bins. Surfaces with stubborn stains may require a soap solution with your pressure washer. Be sure to dress for the job and wear work clothes and closed toe shoes or rubber boots.
Annually cleaning your property with a pressure washer may sound like a lot of work but it will make a big difference in how your property looks and lasts.
