Pressure Washing in Serangoon Garden

Most pros charge either by the hour or by surface area. A single driveway or patio is typically a 1-3 hour job at the low end of a pro's minimum call-out, while a full house exterior wash costs several times more. Get the quote broken down by surface (driveway, walls, deck, roof) so you can drop items to fit your budget.

It is one of the cheapest kerb-appeal upgrades before selling or renting out a property. Estate agents consistently list exterior cleaning among the highest return-on-cost pre-sale jobs because it changes first impressions for a few hundred, not a few thousand. It will not fix structural issues, but it makes photos and viewings noticeably better.

High-pressure washing damages most roof coverings — it strips granules from asphalt shingles, cracks and dislodges tiles, and can force water under the covering. Roof cleaning should be done by soft washing or manual moss removal plus a biocide treatment. If a company proposes blasting your roof at full pressure, choose someone else.

Yes. Too much pressure or the wrong nozzle can etch concrete, blast mortar out of brick joints, splinter timber decking, strip paint, and force water behind siding or render. Roof tiles are especially vulnerable. Ask the pro what PSI and nozzle they plan to use per surface, and whether they soft wash delicate areas.

The MCST (management corporation) handles facades and common areas through its managing agent — individual owners generally only hire cleaners for their own balcony, patio, or private enclosed space, and may need management approval even for that. Landed property owners hire directly.

Year-round heat and humidity mean algae and mould regrow within 2-3 months on shaded, damp surfaces. Most landed homeowners wash the car porch and driveway every 6-12 months and pair it with an algaecide treatment to slow regrowth.
