Why surface prep matters more than the finish work

Sealers, stains, and coatings are only as good as what's underneath them. A perfect application over a dirty surface fails in 6 months. The same application over properly prepped concrete lasts 5+ years.

We invest the time in cleaning that other contractors skip — because it's the difference between a job that lasts and one that gets called back.

Professional vs. DIY pressure washing

Consumer pressure washers max out at around 2,000 PSI with low water flow. Our commercial units run 3,500–4,000 PSI at 4+ GPM with rotating surface cleaners. The difference is night and day on years of embedded dirt.

  • Hot-water pressure washing for oil and grease
  • Acid-based cleaning for rust stains and battery acid
  • Sodium hypochlorite + surfactant for mold, algae, and biological growth
  • Eco-safe degreasers for areas near landscaping and water features

What happens if cleaning is skipped

Sealer applied over biological growth peels off in months. Stain applied over residual oil shows ghost spots that never come out. Patching compound applied over dirty concrete doesn't bond. Every shortcut taken here shows up as a callback within a year.

Questions About This Service

Most stains under 5 years old come up completely with hot-water pressure washing and a degreaser soak. Older stains may leave a faint shadow that we can mask with stain or sealer.
