Pressure Washing in Chapel Hill, NC

Chapel Hill is heavily wooded and hilly, with many shaded lots and sloped driveways.

Chapel Hill shade is the main enemy: surfaces that never dry grow algae and mildew. We treat, wash and tell you about trimming that would help it stay clean.

What we watch for in Chapel Hill

Dense tree canopy keeps surfaces shaded and damp, so mildew and algae return quickly.

Red clay

Piedmont clay carries iron oxide. It tracks onto driveways and splashes up siding, and it can leave an orange tint that needs the right cleaner, not just more pressure.

Pollen season

Pine and oak pollen peaks in spring. Washing at the very start of the season means doing it twice, so we usually schedule after the heaviest weeks pass.

How a pressure washing job goes

Look and test. We check the surface, the stain and what is around it (plants, gaps in siding, window seals) before choosing pressure and detergent.
Pre-treat. Algae and mildew are killed at the root with a cleaning solution that dwells on the surface. Pressure alone only removes the top layer.
Wash. Concrete gets a rotary surface cleaner for even lines. Siding, fences and wood get lower pressure so the material is not damaged.
Rinse and walk it. We rinse runoff away from beds and drains, then walk the job with you before we leave.

Questions

Do you offer pressure washing in Chapel Hill?

Yes. We serve Chapel Hill and nearby towns. Wooded, hilly lots where shade grows algae fast. Send the form or call and we will book a time.

Will pressure washing damage my driveway or siding?

It can if pressure is too high or the nozzle is too close. Concrete tolerates strong pressure with a surface cleaner. Vinyl siding, wood, and older mortar need lower pressure and soft-wash chemistry. We pick the method per surface.

How often should a driveway be washed?

In the humid Triangle, shaded driveways often show algae within a year. Sunny ones may go longer. Sealing afterward slows the return.
