Common Situations
Does this sound familiar?
Your driveway has turned green and it looks like you stopped caring
Algae and mold grow fast on concrete in Charlotte's climate, especially on shaded or north-facing surfaces. A standard hose doesn't touch it. Pressure washing strips it back to clean concrete without damaging the surface. Larry covers the edges, expansion joints, and the spots near the garage door that other washers skip.
Your deck looks weathered and gray and you're not sure it's safe anymore
Weathered decking looks worse than it usually is. Pressure washing removes the gray oxidized layer and the mold underneath, revealing the grain and making the wood look years younger. A clean deck is also the right prep surface for stain or sealer — without it, those products won't adhere properly.
Your siding has black streaks and they're getting worse every year
Black streaks on vinyl or fiber cement siding are mold, not dirt — and they spread without treatment. Regular garden hoses don't have the pressure to remove them. Larry adjusts the pressure to the surface (high for concrete, lower for siding) so the staining is cleared without driving moisture into the panels.
You're planning to repaint the exterior and need the surface cleaned first
Paint won't bond to dirty, chalky, or moldy surfaces — it just peels earlier. Pressure washing before an exterior repaint is standard prep. It removes loose material, reveals any cracking or damage that needs caulk before paint, and gives the primer a clean surface to bond to. Larry can coordinate the wash with a paint estimate.

FAQ
Pressure Washing — frequently asked questions
How often should a concrete driveway be pressure washed in Charlotte?
Once a year is a good baseline — more often if the driveway is shaded or near trees. Charlotte's heat and humidity accelerate algae and mold growth on concrete, especially on north-facing surfaces.
Is pressure washing safe for vinyl siding?
Yes, at the right pressure. High pressure can force water behind panels and cause damage. Larry uses lower pressure for siding and higher pressure for concrete, adjusting to the surface to clean effectively without causing damage.
Does pressure washing damage wood decks?
Pressure that's too high can raise the grain or cause surface damage on wood. Larry adjusts the tip and distance for wood surfaces — enough to clean the mold and gray oxidization without damaging the deck boards.
Can I have Larry wash the house before an exterior paint job?
Yes, and it's recommended. Paint won't bond to dirty or chalky surfaces. A pressure wash before painting reveals damage that needs caulk and gives the primer a clean surface. Larry can coordinate the timing with your paint contractor.
