Why Pressure Washing in the Pacific Northwest Isn’t Optional

05.23.25

If you own a home or manage property in the Pacific Northwest, you already know the drill. The rain is constant, the moss grows fast, and the green film on your siding seems to appear overnight.

This region is rough on buildings. Moisture doesn’t just make things look dirty. It slowly tears them apart. Mold spreads. Algae stains. Wood gets slick. And if you ignore it, you’ll be paying to replace what could’ve been cleaned.

Let’s talk about why this kind of maintenance isn’t optional around here.


What’s Really Happening to Your Property

That green film isn’t just a cosmetic issue. It’s living growth that holds in moisture and eats away at your surfaces.

Concrete driveways absorb grime and oil. If you don’t clean them, those stains turn permanent and the surface starts to degrade.

And if your deck feels slippery? That’s a sign it’s soaking up water. Give it enough time and you’re not just looking at rot—you’re looking at a safety hazard.

☔ Rain doesn’t wash these problems away. It feeds them.


          Why DIY Pressure Washing Can Go Sideways

          We’ve seen it happen. Someone rents a pressure washer, goes full blast, and suddenly the siding is peeling, the deck is splintered, or a window is cracked.

          This work takes more than a strong spray. You have to know the right settings, understand the materials you’re working with, and use the right tools for the job.

          If you don’t, you’ll likely do more harm than good.
