November is for fun….and Pressure Washing

Welcome to November, the month that reminds us to be thankful; a month to have some pre-winter fun; and a month to have us pressure wash your home. With warm days and cold nights, November is the perfect time to gather with family and friends around a fire pit. It’s also a great month for playing sports outside, going for a hike or bike ride, or even planting a fall garden.

Professional Softwash, Not Amateur Pressure Wash
The softwash technique is the best way to safely clean a house or commercial building
“Grime needs to be blasted away!” is what you will here from some pressure washing “professionals.”
DO NOT listen to these so-called professionals.
Most people — including fly-by-night pressure washers — think the best way to pressure wash is to use high-powered water pressure, because it is tough cleaning. The problem is, the grime and part of your surface usually leave together. If you don’t believe us, just look at the photos in this article.
Pressure washing damage can be costly, because replacing building materials is never cheap.
Softwash is the technique most true pressure washing professionals use on even the toughest buildup. The professionals at Complete Power Wash in Hagerstown, MD are trained in the best way to use softwash. Our techs use “just the right water pressure,” combined with gentle, environmentally-friendly detergents. These detergents are used to weaken the grip of dirt, mold, mildew and other natural elements. Once the detergent takes affect, the technician can gently wash away the grime. We can even remove graffiti.
Softwash also limits the mess that most amateur power washing companies leave behind. The homeowner does not want to pay good money and have more of a mess.
Blasting Away Pressure Washing Problems
The most-costly damage done by inexperienced technicians is done to shingles and other roofing materials. This damage can be during the job and even later, because damaged shingles can shorten the life of a roof, which can allow rain, sleet and snow to seep in and damage the wood sheathing. Moisture in an attic can lead even bigger problems. The integrity of the roof — except for a home’s foundation — is the most important part of the exterior structure.
Other common mistakes in the pressure-washing world include the scarring of wood, concrete and siding. Even brick can be ruined by an amateur. Commercial pressure washing and personal use machines have enough concentrated power to blast into decks and driveways. Once lines are carved into such materials, a professional will likely have to fix the damage.
And imagine what happens when that kind of water pressure is used on vinyl siding. Often the damage is not just seen on the outside, but felt under the covering. As the water pushes on the flexible material, it can find its way in the gaps and seams of the siding. Then the water is trapped between the siding and home’s outer wall. This can be a perfect scenario for mold and mildew to take hold, which can cause lots of costly problems, including poor interior air quality. This can trigger asthma and other respiratory problems.
Our technicians are trained to pressure wash your home the right way. When they finish a job, everything looks better and the environment left healthy. And, our techs leave the grounds clean and tidy. To schedule a

Welcome to the Fall Season!
The Entire Team at Complete Power Wash Welcome the Fall Season and its Beautiful Weather
We love the fall season, because the hot summer days are behind us. We love this season because we can now help homeowners get ready for the holiday season, and what we hope will be a short winter. So if your sidewalks or siding are not “up for entertaining,” please let us help get them ready. Our technicians will bring our professional equipment and their years of cleaning expertise and have your home ready quickly. Along with the professional equipment, they use the softwash technique to clean your property safely.
Most amateurs try and blast dirt, grime and algae away. The problem is, as they blast away the filth, they also blast INTO the surfaces. The scarring of concrete, wood and other building materials can be VERY costly!
Gutter Cleaning is Essential
One area of your home that needs to be clean before winter is the gutters. Most homeowners don’t even think about gutters until there’s a problem. Then it’s too late, because water can find lots of places to go if not channeled away from the house. Sticks, leafs and acorns can quickly clog gutters and downspouts. Many people think water will just flow around it, but heavy rains can back up in a hurry.
If water backs up, it will overflow, run down the walls and likely come inside your home. And, if you live where it snows, backed up water freezes and snow can back up under shingles. This can lead to damage inside and outside of your home, negatively impacting your roofing materials.
Contact us today online or by calling us at 301.842.2290 for an estimate to pressure wash your Hagerstown-area home. We’re also happy to answer questions, so you can make a wise choice about your home’s care.
Fall Season Facts
Historically “Fall” was called “Harvest,” because of the harvest season that occurs during these months.
Fall Is caused by the Earth’s tilt, not the planet’s distance from the sun. When the northern hemisphere tilts towards the sun, we get warmer and then colder as it tilts away.
Weight gain around this time of year may not only from food. Researchers have found that lack of vitamin D — which the sun helps your body produce — reduces fat breakdown and triggers fat storage. So you can’t completely blame all the pumpkin-spice drinks and desserts.
Fall colors are caused by the amount of sugar in leaves. The more red in the leaf, the more sugar that leaf is storing.
Fall tourism — or “leaf peeping” — brings in big money, around $3 billion annually to the New England states.
People with fall birthdays are statistically better students and live longer, according to a UK Department of education and the University of Chicago study.

No matter your perspective, we at Complete Power Wash hope it was a great summer. We also hope the fall is even better.
Our pressure washing techs love the fall season. It’s a great time to clean houses, sidewalks, decks and more.

With back-to-school season here, it’s time to get the house clean for fall and those guests that will arrive in a few short months.
Just imagine how beautiful your house will look when after the Complete Power Wash techs finish pressure washing it. Many homeowners don’t even realize how dull their house looks at this time of year. The mold, mildew, pollen, dirt, grime and other elements have gradually built up, because that’s what nature is good at doing. Homeowners can’t even see the change from when they moved in years ago. Most of our satisfied customers love to step back and stare at their clean house, as if it is a completely new home.
If trees provide shade from the summer sun for your roof, they likely deposit dirt and grime on your shingles. We will softwash the roofing materials to bring back beauty and life. The lifespan of roofing materials can be shortened by the elements, which can break down those materials. The black streaks will be gone. The uneven coloring will be even again. And yes, you will love the look and extending the life of the roof!

“In August, the large masses of berries, which, when in flower, had attracted many wild bees, gradually assumed their bright velvety crimson hue, and by their weight again bent down and broke their tender limbs.” – Henry David Thoreau

Deck Cleaning Done the Right Way
A stained deck or patio can be a minor issue. But if the deck cleaning is done wrong, it will be MAJOR! We are the deck cleaning and restoration experts.
Does your deck or patio have ugly stains? Is it green or black where it shouldn’t be green or black? If the answer is yes to either question, know that these dark areas can be more than the difference between a beautiful home and an unsightly house. And while these stains are detracting from your home’s beauty, the real problem will come a few years down the road. Those stains — a build up of grime and possibly harmful elements — can cause expensive damage and cause health concerns.
Such contaminants need to be pressure washed away sooner rather than later.
The average lifespan of deck materials, especially porous materials, is between 15 and 20 years. Unwanted element buildup can take years off that lifespan. And, we yet to find anyone who wants to spend thousands of dollars on a new deck short of the manufacturer’s promise. Clean your deck now and save big bucks in the long run!
The Solution to the Problem
The pressure washing experts at Complete Power Wash in Hagerstown, MD have years of training in the proper cleaning of deck materials. The techs will also give you a proper assessment of your other building materials — siding, roofing materials, gutters, fencing, walkways, etc… — that may be in danger of a shortened life due to harmful element buildup.
And don’t hire just anyone who claims to have a “pressure washing business.” Decks are easily scarred by high pressure treatment. This damage costs lots of money to fix. It could cost nearly one-third of the price of the deck.
Our pressure washing experts use the softwash approach, which ensures your deck will be cleaned and not damaged. Softwash is a combination of gentle water pressure and environmentally-safe detergents. This approach is the best for cleaning with little to no threat of damage to wood or composite decks. High pressure cleaning can even damage concrete and hardscape patios, if done incorrectly.

Did You Know?
On July 4, 1776, the thirteen original colonies claimed their independence from England. This event eventually led to the formation of the United States. The colonies and England had already been at odds for a year when the colonies convened a Continental Congress. In a June 7, 1776 session in the Pennsylvania State House (now Independence Hall) in Philadelphia, Richard Henry Lee of Virginia presented this resolution:
“Resolved: That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent states, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved.”
What Happened Next
What happened next was the drafting of a statement. This “statement” presented to the world the colonies’ case for independence. Members of the committee included John Adams of Massachusetts, Roger Sherman of Connecticut, Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania and Thomas Jefferson of Virginia. Jefferson drafted the actual document — The Declaration of Independence.
On July 1, 1776, the Continental Congress reconvened, then on the following day, the resolution for independence was adopted by 12 of the 13 colonies. The process of revision continued through all of July 3 and into the late afternoon of July 4, when the Declaration was officially adopted. Today, the original copy of the Declaration is housed in the National Archives in Washington, D.C.
From 1776 to the present day, July 4th has been celebrated as the birth date of American independence. The tradition of it being a patriotic celebration became even more widespread after The War of 1812. In this war, the United States again faced Great Britain. In 1870, the U.S. Congress made July 4th an unpaid federal holiday, then in 1938 it became a paid holiday.
More Facts About Independence Day
- The Declaration of Independence was signed by 56 men from 13 colonies. Each could have been tried for treason had the revolution failed, losing their lives and their family property.

- The average age of the signers of the Declaration of Independence was 45. The youngest was Thomas Lynch, Jr (27) of South Carolina. The oldest delegate was Benjamin Franklin (70) of Pennsylvania. The lead author, Thomas Jefferson, was 33.
- The only two signers of the Declaration of Independence who later served as President of the United States were John Adams and Jefferson.
- The stars on the original American flag were in a circle so all the Colonies would appear equal.
- The first Independence Day celebration took place in Philadelphia on July 8, 1776. This was also the day that the Declaration of Independence was first read in public after people were summoned by the ringing of the Liberty Bell.
- Every 4th of July, the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia is tapped (not actually rung) thirteen times in honor of the original thirteen colonies.
- Presidents John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe all died on July 4th. Adams and Jefferson (both signed the Declaration) died on the same day within hours of each other in 1826.
