Pressure Washing in Colorado Springs
Sometimes your home’s exterior doesn’t need a fresh coat of paint. It just needs a professional cleaning. Colorado Springs properties naturally accumulate pollen, dirt, dust, mildew, and other buildup over time. That layer of grime can make even a well-maintained home look dull and neglected. A professional pressure washing from Greg Unseth Painting & Exteriors can restore your home’s appearance quickly and affordably, without the need for repainting.
Our pressure washing team uses high-quality equipment and proven techniques to deliver a thorough, safe clean that enhances curb appeal and helps protect your investment.
Why Professional Pressure Washing Matters
Renting a pressure washer might seem like a simple weekend project, but it comes with real risks. High-pressure water can strip paint, damage wood fibers, force water behind siding, and create costly repairs if not handled properly.
Our experienced team knows how to adjust pressure levels, select the right cleaning solutions, and safely clean a variety of surfaces. The result is a consistent, even clean that removes buildup without damaging your home’s exterior.
What We Clean
Greg Unseth Painting & Exteriors provides pressure washing services for a wide range of residential and commercial surfaces in Colorado Springs, including:
- Home exteriors including siding, stucco, and painted surfaces
- Decks and wood structures
- Driveways and concrete surfaces
- Fences
- Patios and outdoor living spaces
- Gutters and eaves
- Commercial building exteriors
Our Pressure Washing Solutions
Every surface requires a different approach. We offer both water-only and detergent-based pressure washing depending on the level of buildup and the material being cleaned.
Water-Only Pressure Washing
For general dirt, dust, pollen, and light surface buildup, a water-only pressure wash is often all that’s needed to refresh your home’s exterior. This approach works well for routine cleanings and is safe for properly maintained painted and stained surfaces.
Detergent Pressure Washing
For tougher stains such as mildew, smoke residue, or heavy buildup, we use specialized cleaning solutions to break down contaminants at the surface level. This allows for a deeper clean while still protecting your exterior finishes.
The Benefits of Regular Pressure Washing
Extends the Life of Your Paint and Stain
Dirt, mildew, and organic buildup can prevent paint and stain from properly bonding to your home’s surfaces. Removing these contaminants helps preserve your existing finish and prepares surfaces for future projects. If you’re planning exterior improvements, explore our exterior painting services to learn more about our full process.
Protects Your Home’s Surfaces
Organic buildup, especially on wood, can accelerate wear and deterioration over time. Regular pressure washing removes these materials before they cause long-term damage, helping extend the life of decks, fences, and siding.
Improves Curb Appeal
A clean exterior makes an immediate difference. Whether you’re preparing to sell your home or simply want it to look its best, pressure washing delivers noticeable results quickly and cost-effectively.
Prepares Surfaces for Other Projects
Pressure washing is often the first step in larger exterior projects like painting, staining, or repairs. A clean surface allows for better adhesion and longer-lasting results.
Pressure Washing for Colorado Springs Decks
Decks in Colorado Springs are exposed to sun, snow, and moisture throughout the year. Over time, they collect dirt, mildew, and weathered wood fibers that dull their appearance. Professional pressure washing removes this buildup and helps restore the look of your deck.
If your deck needs additional work, we also provide deck repairs, maintenance, and staining to keep your outdoor space in great condition.
Pressure Washing for Commercial Properties
A clean exterior is just as important for businesses. We provide pressure washing services for commercial buildings, entryways, and surrounding surfaces throughout Colorado Springs. A well-maintained exterior creates a strong first impression and reflects positively on your business.

Most Colorado Springs homeowners benefit from having their home's exterior pressure washed once a year, typically in the spring after pollen season or in the fall before winter sets in. Homes with significant tree coverage, north-facing surfaces that stay damp longer, or properties near unpaved roads may benefit from more frequent cleaning. Decks and fences generally benefit from annual washing as well to prevent mildew and buildup from taking hold.
Yes, when done correctly by an experienced professional. The key is using the right pressure settings and techniques for the specific surface being cleaned. Our team knows exactly how to adjust the equipment and approach to deliver a thorough clean without stripping paint or damaging wood fibers. DIY pressure washing with rental equipment is where damage most commonly occurs because the pressure is often set too high and the technique is inconsistent.
Pressure washing uses high-pressure water to blast away surface buildup and is well-suited for hard surfaces like concrete driveways, brick, and stone. Soft washing uses lower pressure combined with cleaning solutions to safely clean more delicate surfaces like painted siding, stucco, and wood. Our team uses the right approach for each surface type to ensure effective results without causing damage.
Yes. Pressure washing is one of the most effective ways to remove mildew from exterior surfaces. For heavier mildew buildup our detergent-based cleaning solutions break down the mildew at the surface level for a more thorough clean than water alone can achieve. Addressing mildew promptly is important because left untreated it can work its way into wood surfaces and cause deterioration that goes beyond the surface.
Absolutely, and we recommend it strongly. A freshly pressure washed surface provides a clean, solid foundation that allows paint to bond properly and last longer. Dirt, mildew, and other buildup on the surface can interfere with paint adhesion and lead to premature peeling or failure. If you're planning an exterior repaint, pressure washing is an important first step in the preparation process.
Yes. Greg Unseth Painting & Exteriors provides pressure washing services for commercial building exteriors, parking areas, entryways, and other exterior surfaces throughout Colorado Springs. We work around your schedule to minimize disruption to your business operations and deliver a clean, professional result that makes a strong impression on your customers and clients.
In the hands of an inexperienced operator, yes. High-pressure water applied incorrectly can strip paint, damage wood fibers, force water behind siding, and cause surface damage that's costly to repair. This is one of the most common risks of DIY pressure washing with rental equipment. Our experienced team uses professional grade equipment and the right techniques for each surface type to deliver a thorough, safe clean every time.
