Looking to do a little spring cleaning? When it comes to washing away dirt and grime, few tools are as useful and versatile as a pressure washer. After a long winter, it may seem a bit overwhelming to look out onto your deck, patio, or driveway and see the layers of buildup left behind. Renting a pressure washer for just one weekend can easily tackle that and more.
A pressure washer is the perfect tool for cleaning your deck, siding, driveway and vehicle --but while you’re at it, you can also use one for getting your deck furniture, grill, and other outdoor items ready for the upcoming season. If you are planning to sell your house, an afternoon using a pressure washer on your siding can provide nearly instant curb appeal.
When renting your pressure washer, some things to consider are:
- Do you need a pressure washer that has the ability to incorporate cleaning solutions with the water?
- The type of job you are planning is important in determining the necessary portability of the pressure washer. Many models have wheels to make moving them easier. Some are lighter than others as well.
- Is the length of the hose adequate for your job?
- Ask about safety features on the model you select.
- Be sure to let the rental staff know what your needs are and they will make sure you have the correct size/power that is suited for your job. They’ll also make sure the wand and nozzle are right for your needs.
- Make sure to read all safety literature. As with most power tools, pressure washers can make life a lot easier but should be used responsibly.
There are many reasons why renting a pressure washer is a much better choice over buying one. The quality of a rented, commercial grade pressure washer is much better than those found in consumer retail. This translates into more consistent power and a better finished product. Most homeowners only use a pressure washer four or five times per year. When you think about it, why store one for the other 360 days? There is no need for the homeowner to maintain or winterize the pressure washer.
