There once was a time when power washers were generally the preserve of businesses. Indeed, they are an essential part of the maintenance arsenal across many industries, from transport to construction to facilities management. However, they are also becoming increasingly popular hires for home and garden use too, with the Kranzle range being particularly popular.. Power Plant Hire regularly hires out power washing equipment to homes across Wexford, Wicklow, Carlow, Waterford and Kilkenny. Why are they becoming so popular with home owners, you may ask? There are plenty of advantages for sure, let’s take a look at some of them.
Power Washing Can Save You Money on Repainting Surfaces
While all paint needs replacing at some point, lack of regular cleaning can shorten its life considerably. This is why it’s good to wash away algae, moss, lichen and contaminants before it can take hold and do to much damage. Power Washers are ideal for this, you may well find that the cost of hiring one for a day is substantially less than that of more frequent repainting. Of course, it should go without saying, Power Washing does wonders for your property’s aesthetic appearance too.
Power Washing Can Help Maintain Your Driveway
There’s more to power washing than simply keeping your home and garden clean. It can actually save you money on maintenance and repairs too. Take your driveway, for example. Naturally, driveways have to withstand a lot of dirt, oil, grease and other pollutants. Over time, this can not only make them unsightly but can actually slowly damage the surface leading to you eventually having to replace them. A thorough power wash can prevent this, and increase the lifespan of your driveway surface (saving you time and money).
Power Washing is Good for Your Roof
As with driveways and walls, the roof of your property is also susceptible to gradual damage from algae and other growth or contaminants that can build up considerably if left unchecked (while also clogging up gutters and drains, leading to further potential damage). Once again, it’s well worth hiring a power washer for a weekend to get your roof gleaming again and preventing long term damage. Not only will it look better, it’ll save you money on costly repairs too.
Power Washers Keep Patios Pristine
Patios are another area that can tend to get unsightly if algae and other growth is allowed to prosper unhindered. Being often the focal point of a garden space, they’re an area you’ll want to keep aesthetically pleasing as much as your house itself. Power Washers such as those in the Kranzle range are ideally suited to keeping patios looking pleasant, being a lot quicker (and less labour-intensive) than manual scrubbing.
Power Washers Can Save on Water Usage
It might seem counter intuitive, but washing a surface with a Power Washer tends to use less water than you would using more manual methods to achieve the same result. So, less water, less time, less effort, what’s not to love?
