No, pressure washing is not safe for all surfaces. It can damage surfaces such as delicate wood, stucco, and some types of siding if done incorrectly. That is why it is important to hire a professional pressure and soft washing service like Star Removal PWC who has experience and knowledge in handling different surfaces.
Q: Will pressure washing damage my driveway?
A: No. When done professionally,
pressure washing is safe for
concrete and asphalt. At Star
Removal, we adjust water
pressure to the proper level and
use eco-friendly cleaning solutions
to prevent surface damage.
Q: How often should I have my driveway pressure washed?
A: Most homeowners benefit from
cleaning once a year. In humid
Florida and Georgia climates,
algae and mildew may require
cleaning every 6–9 months.
Q: Can you remove oil stains and tire marks?
A: Yes. Our team uses professional-
grade detergents and hot water
equipment to break down oil, rust,
and tire marks that typical cleaners
cannot remove.
Q: Is pressure washing safe for concrete and asphalt?
A: Absolutely. We carefully adjust
pressure and use safe detergents
to ensure thorough cleaning with-
out stripping or etching the surface.

A: Yes. We use biodegradable, plant
-safe detergents and water-
efficient techniques that are
safe for your family, pets, and
landscaping.

A: We remove algae, mildew, and
gum buildup that create slip
hazards. After cleaning, side
-walks are safer for families,
customers, and pedestrians.
Q: Will pressure washing remove gum and algae?
A: Yes. Our equipment removes tough
gum spots and kills algae at the
root, preventing it from quickly
regrowing.

A: Yes. We adjust pressure settings to
prevent chipping or cracking while
still removing stains and buildup
effectively.
Q: How often should sidewalks be cleaned?
A: High-traffic areas like businesses
may need quarterly cleaning.

require service once or twice per
year.

A: Yes. We service both homes and
businesses, including storefronts,

once a year. Shady, damp, or

pressure and detergents to
remove stains without loosening
or chipping the surface.

travertine, and stone pavers

and use biodegradable detergents

weeds, mold, and fading from UV

for longer.

traffic and weather. Driveways may
require resealing sooner than
patios or walkways.
Q: What’s the difference between cleaning and sealing pavers?
A: Cleaning removes dirt and stains.
Sealing adds a protective barrier
that enhances color and prevents
future damage.

enhanced finishes, and our

slip-resistant for safety.

A: DIY sealing often leads to streaking,
peeling, or trapped moisture.
Professional application ensures a
long-lasting and even finish.

pressure water and safe
detergents to remove stains

degradable and safe for land-
