Starting at $220.

Pressure washing in Carmichael usually means clearing more than ordinary dirt: tree sap, seed-pod residue and organic staining from the area's mature oak canopy build up on driveways, walkways and patios faster than on more open, newer-built lots. Carmichael's larger parcels also mean more concrete and hardscape per property than the valley average.

Driveways, patios, decks, fences, walkways, siding — if it is outside and it is dirty, it is on the list. We bring our own high-pressure equipment; all we need from you is a water tap, and it does not need to be hot. What a job costs comes down to two things: how much surface there is, and how badly it has weathered. A patio that gets swept every week and a driveway that has not been touched in five years are not the same job even at identical square footage, which is why the quote follows a look at the actual surface rather than a table of rates. There is one surface we will not put a pressure washer on, and that is your roof. Pressure strips the protective granules off asphalt shingles, and on soft roofing it does real damage — so roofs get a different method entirely, mechanical removal of heavy moss followed by a treatment that kills lichen at the root. If someone quoted you a pressure wash for your roof, that is the part worth asking about. Small jobs meet a $220 floor. The washer has to be trailered out, hooked to your tap and primed whether it then runs for one hour or five, and that setup is the part of the day a single walkway cannot carry on its own.

Driveways and patios under tree canopy get treated for sap and organic staining, not just surface dirt — a standard wash alone often doesn't lift it.

  • Anything already loose or damaged, where the water would finish the job

How we do Pressure Washing

  1. We look at the surface and its condition — area and how far gone it is are what set the price.
  2. We bring the machine; all we need from you is a water tap. Hot water is not required.
  3. Pressure is matched to the surface, because wood and concrete do not take the same treatment.
  4. We work the area systematically rather than chasing the worst patches, so the finish is even.
  5. If your roof came up in the conversation, we will tell you honestly why it is not getting the pressure washer.

Safety and limits

  • We do not pressure wash roofs: on asphalt shingle and soft roofing it removes the protective layer.

Concrete driveway and front walkway in Folsom

Concrete driveway and front walkway pressure washed back to an even colour after years of road dust and staining.

We looked at the condition of the concrete first and tested the method on a small patch before going further. Plants, the garage door and the surfaces next to the work area were covered. Then the concrete was cleaned in even passes with the pressure set to what that surface could take, and the area was rinsed down and the loosened dirt cleared away.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my driveway have dark staining even though I sweep it regularly?

That's usually tree sap or organic residue from oak canopy overhead, which sweeping won't remove — pressure washing with the right approach will.

Do you serve all of Carmichael, or just certain neighborhoods?

All of Carmichael — Old Carmichael, Carmichael Park and Mission Oaks are all on our regular routes, and there's no travel surcharge for any of it.

Will you pressure wash my roof?

No, and it is worth knowing why. Pressure strips the protective granules off asphalt shingles, and on soft roofing it does real damage. Roofs get a different method entirely. If someone quoted you a pressure wash for your roof, that is the part worth asking about.

My lot is larger than most — does that change the quote?

Yes, the quote is based on the actual square footage of driveway, walkway and patio being washed, which we confirm when we see the property.

Does Carmichael's tree canopy affect pricing?

No — the rate is the same flat $55/hr per cleaner as everywhere else we serve. A heavily-treed lot can affect how long some services take, which we account for when we quote the job.

What do you need from us?

A water tap. It does not need to be hot — we bring our own high-pressure equipment.

What decides the price?

How much surface there is, and how badly it has weathered. A patio swept every week and a driveway untouched for five years are not the same job even at identical square footage, which is why the quote follows a look at the actual surface rather than a table of rates.

Is there a minimum?

Yes, $220. The washer has to be trailered out, hooked to your tap and primed whether it then runs for one hour or five, and that setup is the part of the day a single walkway cannot carry on its own.

Which surfaces do you clean?

Driveways, patios, decks, fences, walkways and siding — if it is outside and it is dirty, it is on the list.
