Power Washing vs Garden Hoses

Its a question as old as time itself; why hire a power washing company when I can use a garden hose? While a hose might be useful for fresh spills and superficial cleaning, a professional power washing service offers a level of depth and quality that a simple garden hose cannot provide. Even with all the advanced add-ons and nozzles, a high grade pressure washing machine still outperforms a hose in every respect. Here’s a couple reasons as to why.

1) Pressure Washers use less Water

This may sound counter-intuitive, but its true; pressure washers do use less water than the alternatives. This is because the suction and piston mechanisms in a pressure washing machine cause the water to release towards a concentrated point, rather than coming out free flowing.

This focus on projectile cleaning allows power washing companies like Magic Bubbles to blast away dirt, algae, and other stains that a free flowing water supply simply would not be able to. If anything, using a hose might only provide moisture to help mold grow along your driveway and other surfaces. In contrast, power washers get rid of mold quickly, consuming less water overall.

2) Pressure Washers are Customizable

Power Washing Companies use a wide range of equipment to pressure clean your exterior surfaces. The most commonly known is the pressure washing wand, but there are others like the pressure washing rotary, known for its circular design.

For grease, grime, and oil; a hot water pressure cleaner is the best choice. But for dirt and mud plaguing a gutter, using a low intensity cold water pressure cleaner is the better option.

The list goes on. There are countless ways to customize your pressure washer to ensure the absolute best in power washing services. As for a hose, even with extensions, it wouldn’t be able to perform at the same level as your standard power washing company is able to achieve.

3) Detergents & Degreasers 

Power Washing Specialists are also well informed on the best quality detergents and degreasers to use on your home’s exterior surfaces. Rather than pouring some soap on the floor and using a hose, professional power washing companies have developed more sophisticated techniques to deep cleaning surfaces.

Moreover, a hose is too unwieldy. While a pressure washer can be equipped with a lance when necessary, a hose is simply too broad and not powerful enough to provide the control necessary to ensure a truly deep clean. Frankly, you’re more liable to spread the soap around with a hose, than you are to actually make an impact.

4) Versatility & Dexterity 

Professional Power Washing companies like Magic Bubbles have the equipment and expertise to clean gutters, patios, fences, driveways, and so much more. The professional equipment used by Magic Bubbles allows for roof cleaning with ease, while a hose would simply splash water than would directly slide away.
The fact is, a hose cannot provide the versatility associated with professional power washing companies. For example, Magic Bubbles uses specialized trucks to transport clean water to any area of the house. Rather than being restricted to a single area, this truck can be driven to the other side of the house or into the driveway for a roof cleaning project if necessary. Our pressure cleaning vehicles are what makes Magic Bubbles the best choice for all your power washing needs.
