What Pressure Washing Work Here Actually Involves
Large Victorians, Colonial Revivals and Georgians through the Brush Hill and Academy areas, with two-families and postwar singles toward East Milton and the Boston line.
Most of our pressure washing work here is for owner-occupants of large period homes, plus two-family owners closer to Boston.
Scale and ornament
The Brush Hill and Academy-area houses are large and heavily detailed. Brackets, cornices and multi-colour schemes are brushwork and should be priced that way.
Blue Hills canopy
Milton is heavily wooded against the reservation. Shaded elevations grow mildew every summer and need washing plus real dry time.
Genuine grade

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 Milton specifically, the work is mostly large Victorians and Colonial Revivals, and Blue Hills tree cover and grade 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.
