Save Big: The Long-Term Cost Benefits of Regular Pressure Washing

When it comes to keeping your building in tip-top shape, prevention is key. By hiring City Wide Building Services for regular pressure washing, property managers can ensure that their buildings remain clean, structurally sound, and appealing to tenants.
Pressure washing, using high-pressure water to blast away dirt and mildew growth, is a highly effective method for cleaning the exterior, removing dirt, grime, mold, mildew, and a whole host of other contaminants.

It might seem like a simple cleaning technique, but professional pressure washing performed by City Wide actually has a range of significant long-term benefits—especially when it comes to cost savings.

Here’s how outsourcing pressure washing to City Wide can protect your finances and provide additional benefits beyond cost savings.

How Does Pressure Washing Help Your Finances?

Dirt, grime, mold, and mildew are more than just unsightly; they can cause serious structural damage to your property over time. In fact, when these contaminants accumulate on surfaces like roofs and siding, they begin to break down the materials, leading to cracks, erosion, and potential damage.

For instance, mold spores can penetrate porous materials, weakening them and causing rot, while dirt and grime trap moisture against surfaces, accelerating wear and tear.

Leave these issues unaddressed, and you’re looking at some seriously expensive repairs down the line.

City Wide’s regular pressure washing services are a proactive way to remove these harmful substances before they cause significant damage. This not only protects the exterior of your property but also extends its lifespan, reducing the need for costly repairs in the future.

What’s more, a well-maintained property has more curb appeal, which is great if you want to lease or sell at any point in the future. A clean, well-maintained building shows prospective tenants or buyers that the property has been properly cared for, reducing concerns about unexpected repairs.

And if you have a commercial property, this visual appeal is more likely to attract foot traffic through your (lovely and clean) doors. Focusing on aesthetic appeal leaves a positive impression on all potential customers.

So, by working with City Wide for regular pressure washing, property managers can say goodbye to dirt and grime—and hello to a healthier bottom line.

Benefits Beyond Your Pocket: The Advantages of Pressure Washing

While the cost savings associated with pressure washing are certainly compelling, the benefits aren’t just financial. Regular pressure washing also creates a healthier, safer environment for everyone who uses your property.

One of the primary non-financial benefits of pressure washing is its ability to remove mold. Not only is it harmful to building materials but also to the people who occupy the space. Mold spores carry health risks like respiratory problems, allergies, and other health issues, especially in those with pre-existing conditions. Removing mold before it becomes a serious issue helps property managers ensure a healthier living and working environment for tenants and visitors.

Additionally, City Wide’s pressure washing services improve safety by clearing surfaces like sidewalks, driveways, and entrances. Whether you’re blasting away algae and debris in the wake of a storm or simply washing the concrete surface of grease, this can help you present slips and falls.

Essentially, getting all of your exterior surfaces clean is important for health and safety reasons. Professional pressure washers can carry out regular maintenance to ensure that all these harmful substances are gone. And if they use eco-friendly cleaning solutions, you can be sure that your outdoor space is hygienic and chemical-free.

How Much Does Pressure Washing Cost?

There are two ways to go about power washing:

  1. Rent a pressure washer for a DIY job.
  2. Hire a professional pressure cleaning company like City Wide.

Renting a pressure washer might seem like a cost-effective option, but it’s important to weigh the pros and cons. The cost of a rental can range from $50 to $200 per day, depending on the model and location. However, without proper training and experience, DIY pressure washing can lead to accidental damage, such as stripping paint. At worst, it can lead to an injury.

On the other hand, phiring City Wide Building Services for professional pressure washing may come with a higher upfront cost, but it brings significant advantages. Our professionals have the right know-how and tools to clean your property safely, from stubborn dirt on concrete driveways to stubborn stains on outdoor furniture.

The cost of pressure washing varies depending on the type of surface being cleaned, the size of the property (usually measured by square foot), the level of dirtiness, accessibility, and so on. However, it’s worth investing in frequent cleaning. While the professionals get the job done, property managers can focus on more important tasks, confident that their property is in good hands.

Think of it as an investment in your property’s longevity—one that comes with a great return on investment.

Final Thoughts: Why Pressure Washing Is a Smart Investment
