What drives pressure washing cost

  • Surface: driveway, siding, deck, or whole property.
  • Total area to clean.
  • Level of dirt, mold, or staining.
  • Soft-wash versus high-pressure for delicate surfaces.
  • Regional labor rates.

Key cost factors

Surface and method

Hard surfaces like driveways take high pressure. Siding and roofs need a gentler soft-wash to avoid damage, which can affect the price.

Size and condition

Larger areas and heavily soiled or mold-covered surfaces take longer and may need treatment, raising the cost.
