How to Pressure Wash Pavers for a New Look

If your patio pavers are looking a bit worse for wear, power washing them may be the solution you're looking for. Power washing is a great way to clean and restore patio pavers to their original condition. By using a power washer, you can quickly and easily remove built-up dirt, grime, and other debris from the surface of the pavers. This will also help to remove any staining or discoloration that may have occurred over time.

Pressure washing your patio pavers is a simple and effective way to give them a new lease on life.

The DIY Option:

To power wash your patio pavers, you will need a power washer and some detergent. You can rent a power washer from most home improvement stores. Be sure to read the manufacturer's instructions carefully before using the power washer. Once you have your power washer and detergent, mix the detergent according to the manufacturer's instructions and fill the power washer's tank with it.

Next, position the power washer so that the nozzle is pointing down at the pavers and turn it on. Start washing the pavers from one end to the other, using a back and forth motion. Be sure to hold the power washer at least 12 inches from the surface of the pavers to avoid damaging them. Once you have power washed all of the pavers, rinse them off with clean water from a hose or power washer.

Hiring a Pressure Washing Service:

Most professional pressure washing services will be able to do the job faster, and more effectively because they have better equipment and access to the proper detergents and solvents.

In addition, they are trained to know the best approach for the particular type of pavers you have, and they're able to clean your house, sidewalk, driveway, roof, pool surround, etc. while they're already at your home.

Another thing to consider is just how physical and messy it can be to power wash your pavers. In most cases, there are months (years?) of grime, mildew, mold, dirt, and other contaminants that are embedded within the pores of the pavers. It's hard work and tedious to do if you're not used to working in this environment.

Once you have your patio pavers clean, ensure the pavers to dry completely before walking on them or placing furniture on them. Power washing your patio pavers is a great way to clean and restore them to their original condition. By taking the time to power wash your pavers, you can enjoy them for many years to come.
