Memorial Day is behind us, and now that the long weekend is under your belt, it’s the perfect time to get your home in shape for the season ahead. Whether you’re planning backyard get-togethers, home improvement projects, or just want to enjoy a cleaner, more inviting space, pressure washing is one of the easiest and most effective ways to kick off summer.

At McKown Pressure Wash, Painting, and Contracting, we proudly serve homeowners in Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Newport News, Hampton, Williamsburg, and surrounding cities.

Below are the most important areas to focus on and why now is the time to act.

Your home’s siding is constantly exposed to the elements. Rain, wind, pollen, and coastal humidity all take a toll. Over time, dirt and mildew buildup, leaving your home looking tired and dull. That’s especially true in humid areas like Hampton Roads, where mold and algae are common culprits.

A professional soft wash is the safest way to clean siding, whether it’s vinyl, aluminum, or composite. It removes grime without damaging the surface, brightens your entire exterior, and helps protect your siding from long-term wear. If your siding looks faded, streaked, or green around the edges, it’s time to book your summer cleaning.

Absolutely, and the difference it makes is dramatic. Driveways collect stains from oil, salt, and everyday wear. Sidewalks and pavers get embedded with dirt, weeds, and algae. Left untreated, these surfaces not only look dirty but can also become slippery and hazardous.

Our team uses high-powered equipment and targeted solutions to lift years of buildup from your concrete, brick, or paver surfaces. Whether you’re in Virginia Beach or Williamsburg, a clean driveway instantly improves curb appeal and sets the tone for the rest of your home.

Decks, patios, and fences are where summer happens, and they need attention too. These surfaces absorb dirt, mold, UV damage, and discoloration from everyday use. Whether it’s wood, vinyl, or composite, our gentle but effective cleaning methods restore your outdoor areas without splintering or stripping the material.

Professional pressure washing doesn’t just clean; it reveals what needs repair. By removing buildup and mildew, we can help you spot early signs of wood damage like soft spots, cracking, or rot. Catching these issues early can save you time and money down the road, especially before sealing or staining.

A professionally cleaned deck or patio is not only more enjoyable to use but also lasts longer. For homes throughout Norfolk, Chesapeake, and beyond, regular pressure washing keeps outdoor spaces ready for entertaining, relaxing, or summer projects and helps protect your investment.

Out of sight, out of mind, until something overflows. Clogged gutters and dirty rooflines can lead to serious issues like water damage, foundation problems, and roof staining, especially during Virginia’s summer storm season. That’s why gutter cleaning is one of the most essential home maintenance tasks you can schedule this time of year.

While some homeowners attempt to clean their gutters with basic gutter cleaning tools, the job can be messy, dangerous, and easy to overlook. Missed debris, clogged downspouts, or damaged sections can end up costing more in the long run. Our team uses professional equipment to remove buildup thoroughly and safely. No ladders or guesswork is needed.

In addition to clearing your gutters, we’ll also clean roof overhangs, soffits, and fascia boards, giving your exterior trim a polished, finished look.

Yes, and it’s not just recommended. It’s essential. If you’re planning to stain your deck or paint exterior surfaces like trim, fences, or shutters, pressure washing is the first and most crucial step. Over time, wood and siding collect layers of dirt, mildew, old paint, and debris. If that buildup isn’t removed, your new paint or stain won’t adhere properly, leading to peeling, cracking, and a finish that doesn’t last.

At McKown Pressure Wash, Painting, and Contracting, we don’t just clean; we also offer professional staining and painting services to complete the job. After pressure washing, we can stain your deck to restore faded wood, protect it from the elements, and enhance its natural beauty. Whether you need a full repaint in Newport News or deck staining in Virginia Beach, we’ll handle the prep and finish for long-lasting results.
