Pressure Washing in Broomfield, CO

Pressure Washing in Broomfield starts with a question that is easy to skip: where does the dirty water go? The City and County of Broomfield points out that water running down the curb in front of a house reaches a river or creek without passing through a treatment plant. So before we start on siding, a driveway or a patio, we plan how rinse water will be contained, filtered or steered onto landscaped ground instead of into the gutter.

Broomfield is also unusual on paper. It incorporated as a city in 1961 in the southeastern corner of Boulder County, then became its own consolidated city and county on November 15, 2001. In practice that means Broomfield itself, not a neighboring county, runs the local storm sewer program and takes stormwater concerns. Its stormwater pages are the place to read the local guidance firsthand.

How we keep wash water out of the storm drain

• Setting temporary berms or mats so runoff stays away from nearby storm inlets
• Soft washing siding at low pressure, which takes less rinse water than blasting
• Recovering heavy, oily runoff from garage aprons and parking pads instead of letting it run downhill
• Letting clear rinse water soak into lawn or gravel where that is appropriate
• Sweeping up loosened grit and debris rather than hosing it into the street

Homes, townhomes and rentals

Broomfield's housing is a broad mix. Census figures put the owner-occupied rate at 62.7%, which leaves a large share of rented houses, apartments and townhomes alongside single-family streets. For owners, the median home value of $664,500 makes routine exterior cleaning a modest way to protect paint, stain and concrete on a valuable property. For landlords and property managers, a written quote makes it simple to plan a wash between tenants or before a listing goes live.

Storefronts, office parks and shared walkways

With the Interlocken office park and the FlatIron Crossing shopping center inside its borders, Broomfield has a lot of sidewalks, entries, dumpster pads and drive lanes that collect gum, grease and tire marks. Our commercial pressure washing covers those surfaces with the same drain-protection steps. Business sites can carry their own stormwater obligations, so we ask about any site plan or property management requirements before we book the work.

What the estimate covers

We walk the property with you, note what each surface is made of, and point out anything fragile, such as older wood, chalky vinyl or loose mortar. You get a written quote listing each area, the method we plan to use and how runoff will be handled. Plants near the work area are rinsed and covered, and windows, light fixtures and outdoor outlets are protected before the wash begins. Call (720) 419-1995 to set a time.

Picking the right season

Spring is a natural time to clear winter road grime and de-icer residue off driveways and garage aprons, while late summer suits house washing before the weather turns. Wood decks and fences clean up most easily during warm, dry stretches so they can dry out fully afterward. We plan the date around your schedule and the forecast.
