Power Washing in Chelsea, Manhattan

Chelsea has few driveways and few lawns, but plenty that needs washing. Shop and gallery fronts collect grime from the avenue. Building entrances and stoops get gum and stains. Rooftop terraces and back courtyards turn green and slick after a wet season.

We set the pressure for each surface. Brick, stone, concrete and wood all need different treatment, and too much pressure can etch or splinter them. Where pressure is risky, we use a soft-wash method with cleaning solution instead.

A clean front makes a shop or gallery look open for business. We wash the sidewalk in front, the entry, the door frame and the lower facade, and we can come before opening hours so customers walk in on clean ground.

For row houses and small apartment buildings on the side streets, we wash stoops, railings and areaways where trash and leaves collect.

Gum and old drink stains on the sidewalk are the hardest part. We pre-treat them and use hot water where needed, and we tell you before the wash if a stain is set too deep to come out fully.

Terraces in Chelsea buildings often have pavers, wood decking and planters. We wash them with care around plants and drains, and we protect windows and doors from spray.

Back courtyards in older buildings stay shady and damp, so moss and algae grow fast. A wash makes the surface safer to walk on. Building owners and managers can call us for a free quote on one or several properties.

Wood decks and fences on terraces get a gentle wash so the grain is not raised. If you plan to stain or seal the wood, a wash first helps the new finish soak in evenly.

On some buildings, the roof or bulkhead surfaces need cleaning too. We use the soft-wash method there, never high pressure, and we plan access with the super first.
