How to choose (and common mistakes)
How to choose for Driveway Cleaning with a Pressure Washer: match your situation, confirm compatibility, then follow a simple checklist to avoid common mistakes.
When selecting a pressure washer for your driveway, consider the PSI (pounds per square inch) and GPM (gallons per minute). A machine with at least 3000 PSI is ideal for tough stains, while 2.5 GPM will help you cover more area efficiently. Avoid common mistakes like using too high pressure on delicate surfaces or not using the right nozzle. A wide fan nozzle works best for large areas, while a narrow nozzle targets stubborn stains. Always start with a test area to avoid damage and ensure you’re using the right technique.
