Pressure washing is a great way to clean tough surfaces outside like patios, driveways, fences, and siding. While a very effective tool, it's very powerful and can do damage to property or others if not handled properly. Follow the tips laid out in the embedded video to power wash like a pro!
Before you use your pressure washer rental, you need to put on all the necessary safety equipment. Water can come out of a pressure washer at a speed of 243 miles per hour, so safety needs to be taken seriously.
Always wear close-toed shoes and eye protection, and wear older clothes you don't mind getting dirty as dirt will be flying around.
Clear out all obstacles and objects that will get in the way or will be damaged, and get right to work on the surface you want to clean. Use your pressure washer rental with the appropriate tip on the surface at a distance at first, so you can gradually get used to it. Move the tip closer until you can see the surface getting cleaned. Use short, sweeping movements to cover more area and wash everything effectively.
