Pressure Washing Service in Concord, MA
Nothing gets coated in Concord before it's washed and dry. Single-glazed original windows with putty glazing are common and usually cannot be replaced. Repainting them properly is closer to glazier's work. Paint does not bond to mildew, chalk or salt film.

Colonial and Federal houses along the historic corridors, Victorians near the centre, mid-century modern at Conantum, and newer development further out.
Most of our pressure washing work here is for owners of historic homes who expect the process followed and understand why it takes longer.
Historic district commission
Concord maintains historic districts covering the town centre and the historic corridors. Exterior work visible from the public way requires review before it starts, and colour is in scope.
Genuinely antique substrates
Some Concord houses predate 1750. Hand-planed trim, old-growth wood and irregular surfaces need patience and the right materials, not a production approach.

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 Concord specifically, the work is mostly antique colonials and Federals, and historic district review across much of the town 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.
