Pressure Washing in Fairfax and McLean
Pressure washing is one of the busiest scopes we run across Fairfax County every spring after the winter finally lifts. DC-area humidity and heavy tree cover on wooded McLean and Great Falls lots keep mildew building on shaded elevations most of the year, and by late summer mildew on north walls is heavy enough that any repaint bonded on top would fail early. Crews adjust pressure and tip size so painted brick, painted wood, stucco, cedar shingle, HardiePlank, and concrete each get the right approach.
Older McLean and Vienna colonials tend to have chalky paint and softer joints that will not tolerate maximum pressure, while newer Tysons-area infill can take a more aggressive wash. Cedar shingle and specialty facades take a soft-wash chemical approach rather than mechanical pressure to preserve the shingle face. Concrete drives, pavers, and stamped hardscape each get a different pressure and detergent approach at the estimate.
Most standalone pressure-washing requests here are pre-listing cleanups, pre-paint prep, or post-storm cleanup. When the goal is a full exterior repaint, the wash is scoped as the first day of the project so paint bonds to a clean substrate. Our writeup on long-lasting exterior paint treats pressure washing as step one for a reason.
