On the Ground in Everett

What Pressure Washing Work Here Actually Involves

Two- and three-families from the 1900s through the 1920s on small lots, plus brick multi-family along the main corridors.

Most of our pressure washing work here is for owner-occupants and small landlords, often the same person.

Very small lots

Everett buildings sit within a few feet of each other. Access is the constraint on every exterior job here.

Rental turnover

A large share of Everett is tenant-occupied, and work gets sequenced around access rather than around weather.

Vinyl over original siding

Much of Everett was resided in the 70s and 80s. Whether to paint the vinyl, replace it, or go back to the wood underneath is a genuine decision.

How Washing Work Is Approached

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 Everett specifically, the work is mostly two- and three-family houses, and almost no room between buildings 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.

Common Questions

Questions We Get Asked

How long after washing before you paint in Everett?

48 hours minimum, 72 on shaded or north-facing elevations. We check with a moisture meter rather than going by feel — coating damp siding is the fastest way to a failed paint job.

Will pressure damage my siding?

It can, which is why old wood and painted surfaces get soft washed at low pressure with a cleaning solution instead. High pressure is for concrete.

Can I have washing done without painting?

Yes, plenty of people do. Annual washing removes the mildew and salt film that shortens the life of whatever coating is already on there.
