3 Ways To Use A Pressure Washer At Home Throughout The Year

Thinking about buying a pressure washer but not sure you'll use it enough to justify the investment? Here are a few awesome uses that are sure to make the idea of buying a pressure washer more attractive:

The House

After a long winter, your home may look older and more worn that it actually is due to the dirt and debris that's been blown onto it throughout the months. Luckily, you can breathe new life into your home and give it a fresh new look for the spring and summer months by taking a pressure washer to it. A pressure washer can be used not only to clean the surface walls of your home, but it can also be used to:

• Clean out the gutters
• Wash the garage door
• Clear the driveway
• Freshen up the roof

Take care not to aim your pressure washer at the windows because its power can crack or chip them. For streak-free exterior windows after winter, wash them with vinegar and newspaper.

The Kids' Toys

Large outdoor toys such as plastic slides, swing sets, and even trampolines can benefit from being cleaned with a pressure washer a couple of times a year. Mud, germs from shoes and animals, and allergens can all get stuck on your children's outdoor toys as they're left out and used throughout the year. If the toys are kept on your grass, take them to the curb or concrete area on your property before washing them and letting them dry. Otherwise, you may find that your pressure washer makes dirt and mud from the grass splash up onto the toys as you try to wash them.

The Vehicle

You can use your pressure washer to clean just about any part of your vehicle except for the engine and windows. When the rims get caked with mud, you can pull your pressure washer out and make them look new again. When the surface of your car becomes dusty and moldy, bust your pressure washer out and save your hands from having to do the scrubbing. Clean the bed of your pickup truck out after a run to the dump using your pressure washer. If you plan to pressure wash your vehicle all at once, tape some thick plastic or several layers of newspaper to your windows so they're protected from the spray if you accidentally get too close to them.

These are just a few basic ways you can use a personal pressure washer at home to make maintenance easy throughout the year. For more information, contact a professional in your area or visit a website like http://www.benscleaner.com
