Pressure washing, or power washing, is the application of a high pressure water spray to surfaces that need cleaned. It is used on concrete to remove mold, gum, and dirt stains. It is used on wooden decks to return the wood’s vibrant color and remove grime. It is used on houses to remove pollution, mildew, and other problematic signs of aging.

It does depend on the materials used to create/build the surface as well as the current condition of the surface. For homes in suburban areas it is recommended once or twice a year, while in wooded areas it is recommended two to four times a year.

While power washing can be viewed as a do-it-yourself project, there is a clear distinction between a DIY crew and professional services. This means you get greater capability of equipment and greater expertise by having trained power washing technicians do it for you. A do-it-yourself washer may set the pressure too high for the surface or hold the nozzle too close to it. This can result in chipped painting, damaged screens, and ruined siding. And though most power washing equipment you can rent has the same PSI as commercial-grade tools, it holds a minimal amount of water making this project take days, not hours.

Impact Restoration uses the "professional hot water extraction" method of cleaning. This is a washing and rinsing of the carpet. We use only non-toxic cleaning agents that are safe for your home. Our truck mounted cleaning units have powerful motors for deeper cleaning, and they heat the water to just the right temperature. This is the only means of cleaning recommended by almost all carpet manufacturers and the Carpet & FabriCare Institute. Finally, this is the only method that can employ a rinse step to leave your carpets as residue free as possible.

Drying time depends on humidity levels, airflow and the type of carpet. While it typically takes four to 24 hours for the carpet to dry, you can walk on it as soon as we are finished. Wear clean tennis shoes or white socks to avoid re-soiling.

Although we’d like to say yes…the answer is no. Many factors are involved in whether a particular stain can be removed. A few of these factors are the nature of the stain, the type of carpet fiber, how long the stain has been there and what, if anything, was used previously to get the stain out. Our knowledgeable technicians are trained and certified, and will take great care to provide the best results possible in removing spots and stains.
