Kellogg's Painting, Painters, Leeds, N.Y 12451: Hiring a Pressure Washing Contractor|House Washing Company

Spring is almost here and it is a good time to do exterior maintenance of your Albany, Catskills or Hudson Valley, N.Y home, including washing your house siding, gutters, overhangs and windows.

This may sound like an easy task to tackle on your own, but in fact can be dangerous. Most home owners do not have the proper equipment and detergents to power wash there home safely, efficiently and correctly. Even if you own a pressure washer chances are you are using high pressure and holding the wand to close to the surface to clean which
can damage the surface and create water intrusion. A property owner will use ladders to reach high areas that become slippery and unstable. Most detergents sold in the stores are not effective against removing all pollutants and contaminants from your siding and will not whiten your gutters, because they will not remove the electrostatic bonding from them.

A professional experienced, knowledgeable and safe pressure washing company will wash the exterior of your home from the ground using low pressure and the proper cleaners that will not only clean your exterior, but will also kill the spores that create mold and mildew. Professional house washing contractors know that it is not high pressure that cleans the surface, but it is using the proper house cleaners in the right quantities.

What to ask a N.Y pressure washing contractor to qualify them as a LEGAL professional power washing company to wash the exterior of your home?

1) Do you have insurance? A N.Y contractor is required to carry liability insurance and workers compensation insurance.

2) do you have a N.Y State Sales Tax I.D Number? New York state requires that sales tax be collected on all repairs and maintenance. Power washing is considered maintenance .

3) Is your business registered?

4) Do you have references, names and phone numbers?

5) Dose the contractor provide a clearly written outlined proposal?

6) Does the proposal include all materials and labor?

7) Is the contractor going to use low pressure? How many psi will be hitting the house? It should not exceed 1,000 psi, as that would be considered using high pressure.

8) Is the contractor punctual for the initial estimate?

9) is the contractor business like?

These are a few tips to help you to have a positive house washing experience when hiring a Albany, Catskills or Hudson Valley pressure washing contractor to power wash your home.

The Kellogg's Painting House Washing Experience:

A professional pressure washing company will use low pressure, as to not damage your property and to prevent water intrusion. A professional contractor knows that it is not the pressure being used, but the correct cleaners and application methods. Beware of contractors that use high pressure washing and/or get the wand real close to the surface.
