What Pressure Washing Work Here Actually Involves
Antique colonials near the Green, 1950s–1970s colonials and splits across most of the town, and architect-designed mid-century modern at Peacock Farm and Six Moon Hill.
Most of our pressure washing work here is for owner-occupants across a wide range of house types, generally maintaining rather than flipping.
Historic districts near the Green
Lexington maintains historic districts around the Battle Green and Munroe. Exterior changes visible from the street require approval before work begins.
Mid-century modern stock
Peacock Farm and Six Moon Hill are architect-designed moderns with flat and low-slope roofs, large glazing and exposed structure. Nothing about them is standard colonial work.
Wide range of eras
A Lexington day can run from a 1740s antique to a 1965 modern to a 2010 colonial. Different substrates, different specs.
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 Lexington specifically, the work is mostly colonials of every era plus mid-century modern, and historic district review near the Green 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.
