How often should you pressure wash in Jacksonville?

Why Florida humidity turns driveways and pool decks dark, how often to wash them in Jacksonville, and what it costs.

In Northeast Florida, most driveways, walkways and pool decks need a wash every 12 to 18 months. Shady yards under big oaks and homes near the beach often need it every year.

Why concrete gets dark so fast here

Heat and humidity feed mildew and algae, especially on concrete that stays damp. Irrigation overspray, red clay runoff and pollen add stains on top of that.

The best time of year

Spring, after the heavy pollen, and fall, after the summer rains, are ideal. Washing before you host a holiday or list your home makes the biggest difference.
