Antique colonials around the Common, large shingle-style and Victorian houses along Jerusalem Road and the shore, and newer development inland.
Most of our pressure washing work here is for owners of substantial coastal and historic homes who expect the detail right.
Historic district around the Common
Cohasset maintains a local historic district covering the Common area, with review of exterior changes visible from the public way.
Jerusalem Road exposure
The shore-road houses take salt and wind directly off the open Atlantic, and the exposed elevations fail first and fastest.
Large detailed exteriors
The shingle-style houses are big and ornate, with extensive trim, porches and multiple rooflines.
Soft Wash, Pressure Wash, and Which One Your Surface Needs
What drives the price
Access and surface type set the price. A single-storey ranch is straightforward. Three storeys of shingle with landscaping tight to the foundation needs different equipment, more setup and more protection of what is underneath. In Cohasset specifically, the work is mostly shore-side shingle houses and Common-area antiques, and historic character plus ocean exposure shapes how we schedule and stage it.
How the work is sequenced
Plants get wet down and covered before anything else happens. Then the appropriate method for the substrate — low pressure with a cleaning solution for siding and roofs, higher pressure only where the material can take it, like concrete. Then a full rinse from the top down so nothing dries with residue on it.
Where it usually goes wrong
High pressure on wood siding drives water behind the boards and raises the grain, which then needs sanding before it can take a coating. On asphalt shingle it strips granules and shortens the roof's life. The pressure setting is the whole skill — anyone can point a wand at a wall.
How long it takes
Most houses are a single day. If the wash is prep for painting, the surface then needs 48 hours minimum to dry before anything gets coated, and longer on north elevations that never see direct sun.
