The art of patio cleaning using a pressure washer correctly in order to ensure that a patio of any composition (wood, composite, stone etc.) is cleaned thoroughly can take some knowledge of pressure washers and also a bit of skill in the actual cleaning of it. While many people have patios, many do not exactly think of it as a great DIY project, for a fact.
However, for those who are interested in cleaning their own patios using a store-bought pressure washer rather than getting down with scrub brushes and cleaners, the experience can be memorable. Certainly, most people resort to a pressure washer because they’re tired of trying to clean out stone or other surfaces by hand.
Unless that washer is commercial in nature, they can end up spending a bit more effort than they’d like when they don’t employ the proper techniques in using the washer. Additionally, the most effective pressure washers are those that utilize extremely hot water and most retail and inexpensive pressure washers aren’t very good at making it.
Still, a pressure washer is better than no washer at all so keep a few tips and techniques in mind when employing a pressure washer in a do-it-yourself fashion. First of all, never try cleaning a patio or anything else with a pressure washer without proper safety equipment, including safety glasses or goggles and thick rubber gloves.
The reason safety gear is so vital is that the pressures that come out of any pressure washer nozzle tip can be quite high. If the water jet strikes an unprotected eye, for example, severe injury can result. It’s also important to understand that the right spray tip is needed in order to get the proper swath width or pattern to effectively clean patio surfaces, which can be easily damaged if not cleaned in the right way.
After those minor issues have been looked at, one might also consider using a strong grade of cleaner to pre-treat the patio surfaces in order to do the best job possible. Extremely hot water works great, but some stones and woods their age may require something a bit more chemical in nature. And this is another reason why safety gear is needed.
After looking at everything involved in doing a patio job as a do-it-yourself project, most people eventually come to the realization that it might be wiser to just call in a professional who can be in and out in almost no time at all. Most people have little patience with a lot of water and dirt and muck, to tell the truth.
