Professional Pressure Washing. Pinecrest, FL - 10 Important Questions

Providing luxury home care in Pinecrest, FL. requires specialized experience, materials & equipment. 

Let's talk about "What are a few of the common questions you should consider when hiring a pressure cleaning company" in 2025. 

1.  What materials do you use?

2. Can you show me proof of your work homes you have cleaned in Pinecrest?

3. Do you belong to any special groups that have endorsed your services?

4. Are you Insured?

5. What is your protocol for property protection?

6. What is the impact on landscaping?

7. How does your pricing work?

8. What problems does your pressure washing service solve?

9. Do you have any references you can provide?

10. Does your process differ for delicate surfaces?

Here is our opinion which comes from common practices in our business. Materials are carefully chosen. Delicate surface protection, Environmental concerns and overall effectiveness are all things we take into consideration when choosing a cleaning agent. This does not mean every surface requires a super special secret product or method either. Most of the times the most effective solution is based on knowing what amount of cleaning product is appropriate. In the business this is referred to as Mix Ratio. A really dirty roof may be best cleaned with a stronger soft wash mix while a exterior house wash may require a different dilution control. 

Proof of work. There really is not a straight forward answer that is definitively correct. At some point transitioning from cleaning driveways and small roofs can lead to an opportunity to provide exterior home cleaning for a much larger home. Another way the question could be phrased could be " Can you show us some of your past work? 

Any company who is trying to clean a 10,000 square foot roof when they are used to cleaning 2000 square foot homes knows that there will be equipment questions. They will know what limitations they have and should know how to make the necessary arrangements. Ultimately, the process is very similar. However, when it comes to caring for different decorative hardscape stone; that does require a different skill set. Same goes for privacy walls & fencing. The abundance of best practices for specialty cleaning and surface types is not readily available to everyone. In this instance, we feel there is no replacement for experience. 

Another not so common but valuable way to measure the quality of work for the potential service provider is whether or not they are endorsed by a group of homeowners within Pinecrest and nearby markets. We are fortunate and grateful to serve these markets as a result of the kindness of our clients who have made efforts to help support our business by referring us within their social circles. 

Ensuring they carry the appropriate Insurance is always a good practice & goes without saying. 

Protection protocol is and should be part of every company. There should be a process in which they cover up outdoor electrical outlets, saturate plant life &/or use a bleach neutralizing product are just to name a few. Impact on landscape ties in with the protection protocol. The choice method on how to protect the landscaping varies by company and in no way should be considered bullet proof. What  is important is that there is a intentional strategy that is put in place as a preventative measure. 

Pricing; when it comes to this topic be prepared to listen to many ways of companies trying to support the value they provide. There no standard pricing structure that works for everyone. Sure, there are many people charging the same thing but what needs to be identified is what is the scope of work that supports the fee for service. At our company we make it simple. We offer Annual Maintenance Plans with a certain set of metrics and a flat fee daily rate that is inclusive of labor and materials. 

Problems solved by pressure washing vary tremendously. The same is true for Soft-Washing and other cleaning methods. Listening to their past experiences and seeing examples of  work can help answer this question. 

In 2025, the the age old reference question is easily answered thanks to online reviews, client referrals and personal relationships. We feel this is important and should be considered when hiring a service provider. 

Delicate surface process &/or methods.  We touched on this earlier. Yes it is important and yes we feel there should be a clear understanding of what, how and why. We once spent the better part of a  work day serving a client that not only had expensive foliage but whose stone hardscape required us to change our methodology completely. This change in process increased the time onsite &  also came with an additional investment for specialized cleaning agents. In the end, we earned another happy client.

In closing, these are just a few of the questions you may want to consider when hiring a pressure cleaning company to clean your Pinecrest Home. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have. 

We are always, at your service!
