We’ve compiled a list of some of the more frequent questions we receive below, but if there’s anything else you’d like to know, Diamond Pro Wash is here for you.
How Much Does Driveway Power Washing Cost?
Our low rates and upfront estimates reflect the true nature of the resources and time it will take to complete the driveway power washing job safely and to your high standards. Since each job site is unique, we customize quotes instead of giving a one-size-fits-all ballpark range.
Do you have current pressure washing insurance?
We are a fully insured, licensed, and bonded pressure washing company with up-to-date certifications and mandatory safety training for our crew members.
When pressure washed surfaces develop streaks, what causes them?
Surface streaks are often caused by a combination of inexperience, too much pressure, and the wrong tips for the surface cleaner. Get a quote from a local pro to eliminate this stress.
How Should I Prepare My Property for Pressure Washing?
The very first thing you should do to prepare your property for pressure washing is to remove anything that is not fixed into place. This will enable you to avoid water damage. When it is not possible to relocate expensive or irreplaceable objects such as water sources, trees, and natural ecosystems, we strive to go above and beyond to completely protect these areas from being affected by any work we perform.
Is it possible to pressure wash my home on my own?
While it is possible to rent or buy a pressure washer and perform the job yourself, you are often better off leaving the job to a professional for best results. Aside from having access to better equipment, pressure washing professionals often have the experience necessary to get the job done faster and more effectively.
Can I clean my roof with a pressure washer?
You can use a pressure washer to remove some of the harmful deposits on your roof, but you can actually end up doing more damage if you’re not careful. Furthermore, using a pressure washer from a ladder is very dangerous, and we wouldn’t recommend it to the average homeowner. It is always more effective and safer to hire professionals to perform pressure washing on your roof to safely remove contaminants without damaging your home. With our top-of-the-line equipment, Diamond Pro Wash only uses the “soft-wash” technique to prevent damages to all exterior buildings.
What Is Soft washing?
It is a safer, non-pressure alternative to high-pressure washing that does not use destructive water sprays to remove contaminants. Using a non-pressure application of specially formulated chemical cleaning solutions, we kill off and remove any harmful contaminants that are eating away at your home’s exterior surfaces. As a result of these unique cleaning solutions, soft washing is able to eliminate growths at their source, rather than just removing the top layer, giving you a long-term solution to prevent them from returning.
Can a soft-washing treatment last for a long time?
As a general rule, a professional soft washing treatment will provide you with results that will last four times longer than those you would get with a standard pressure washing. Most soft washing treatments last a lot longer than an entire year, so you do not have to worry about staining occurring again for a much longer time.
Do I have to be home for my service?
No. As long as our team of professionals has access to the areas of your home that need to be cleaned, you can carry on with your daily errands without interruption. Our only request is that all your doors and windows are closed and that we have access to a working water source.
Do You Work With Commercial Clients?
Yes! We love helping our fellow businesses in the Birmingham area succeed and look their best. Diamond Pro Wash provides a variety of commercial pressure washing services, including storefront cleaning, graffiti removal, building washing, and more.
How Often Should I Get My House Washed?
To keep your sidings strong and your home beautiful, house washing is recommended twice a year. Professional pressure washing removes unsightly and harmful substances from your sidings, which helps maintain your property value and prevent future damages.
What's The Difference Between Your Services And Me Just Buying A DIY Pressure Washer?
There’s nothing wrong with DIY projects, but when it comes to pressure washing, it’s a job best left to professionals. Professional pressure washing teams use the latest and best equipment, and they know to clean each different surface material safely. If a surface is cleaned using the wrong technique or equipment, the result could be expensive repair costs.
Diamond Pro Wash is a fully insured, licensed pressure washing team with years of experience cleaning all types of surfaces. For guaranteed high-quality results, our professionals are unmatched.
Are Your Cleaning Methods Or Chemicals Environmentally Safe?
When you hire Diamond Pro Wash, you can rest assured that we use only environmentally safe cleaning solutions for all of our services. Unlike other pressure washing companies, you’ll never have to worry about harsh chemicals or unsafe cleaning practices with us.
