Pressure Washing in San Fernando

Most residential pros use your outdoor tap and, for electric machines, an outdoor socket. Petrol-powered machines only need water. Some companies carry water tanks for properties without an accessible tap — ask in advance, as tank supply can add to the price. Water usage for a typical driveway job is modest, roughly comparable to a few loads of laundry per hour of cleaning.

A single driveway or small patio takes 1-3 hours. A full house exterior typically takes half a day to a full day depending on size, number of storeys, and how much pre-treatment the surfaces need. Add drying time of a few hours before you walk on sealed or treated surfaces.

Move cars off the driveway, clear pots, furniture, and toys from the work area, close all windows and doors, and cover or flag anything fragile like garden lights. Point out hairline cracks, loose pointing, or flaking paint in advance — pros will work around known weak spots but cannot see them under grime.

Look for local San Fernando companies with recent photo evidence of before/after work on your surface type, public liability insurance, and itemised quotes. Compare at least two or three quotes on the same scope. Be wary of door-knockers offering same-day deals — legitimate operators are usually booked days ahead in peak season.

A crew with proper equipment typically charges ₱300-₱700 per hour or quotes per job: roughly ₱1,000-₱4,000 for a driveway and garage, ₱3,000-₱12,000 for a full house exterior depending on size. Metro Manila prices are the highest; provincial rates can be 30-40% lower.

The start of the dry season (December-January) gives the longest-lasting results. Washing during the wet season still works but mould and algae on shaded walls can return within 4-8 weeks unless an algaecide treatment is applied.
