When you decide to clean your home exterior, it’s best to plan with the weather in mind. The next time you are considering a pressure washing in Wesley Chapel, keep the following factors in mind.

Florida Weather

Due to the hot and humid summers and the yearly hurricane season we experience in Florida, you should pressure wash your home, including the roof, driveways, and sidewalks, every year or so to keep it looking beautiful.

Humidity

Warm air carries more moisture than cool air which can create a breeding ground for mold, mildew, and algae. These organisms thrive in warm and damp conditions. Moisture can also lead to dry rot in wooden homes. If left untreated, not only will your home be unappealing, it will also be in danger of irreparable damage.

Rainy Seasons

Although rain can wash some of the surface dirt from your home, rain can do more harm than good over a period of time. For example, if you don’t clean out your gutters and downspouts regularly, they won’t drain properly and you’ll end up with mildew, sagging gutters, or water flowing into the foundation of the home. This can all lead to leaking inside the home or damage to your exterior paint. You can pressure wash your gutters to prevent clogging which will ensure that water flows away from the home.

Mold and Mildew

Mold destroys whatever it grows on. Furthermore, mold and mildew around your home is hazardous to anyone with allergies and asthma. The key to preventing the growth of mold is to control it. Getting a power washing service in Wesley Chapel will help to rid your home’s exterior of dangerous and unsightly mold.

When Should I Pressure Wash My Home?

The best time to clean your home is when the weather is mild—not too hot and not too cold. Fall and spring are great times, but this is not a hard rule. Pressure washing your home should be a part of your home maintenance schedule just like a doctor’s visit. When you clean it as a preventive measure, you reduce the likelihood of mold, mildew, and any other damage to your home.
