Frequently Asked Pressure Washing Questions - Answered By Holloman Pressure Washing
How Often Should I Get My House Washed?
Industry professionals recommend house washing services once a year at the very least, but many factors influence how often you may need to pressure wash your home. If it's surrounded by lots of trees and foliage, then more frequent washings may be necessary to prevent sap buildup. High humidity may also warrant more cleanings throughout the year as these conditions can spur mold and mildew growth. The best way to determine when your house needs pressure washing is to monitor the state of your exteriors for signs of mold, grime buildup, or algae stains and schedule cleanings as needed. Experts also recommend pressure washing for the following situations:
- Putting your house back on the market
- Prepping for new exterior paint
- Restoration after harsh storm seasons
Is That Black Stuff On My Roof Really Not Dirt?
Unfortunately, no. The black discoloration you see on your roof is a type of algae called gloeocapsa magma, and it will keep spreading across your roof's surface if it goes without treatment.

What's The Difference Between Your Services And Me Just Buying A DIY Pressure Washer?
While DIY pressure washing may seem like an attractive option for your home's exterior cleaning, the truth is that it may not always live up to your expectations. DIY pressure washers available in retail stores don't have the same power and durability as professional-grade equipment, which means they usually aren't appropriate for large-scale cleaning projects like a full house washing. You also have to consider the experience level of the person doing the pressure washing. Professional technicians are highly trained and comfortable working on even the most difficult-to-reach areas of your home. They also won't make mistakes that could result in damage to your property. Finally, hiring a professional ensures your health and safety; the same cannot be said for DIY cleaning work. Because pressure washing involves risks like handling powerful equipment and working from elevated heights, it's one task better left to the pros to prevent yourself from suffering an injury.
