Pressure Washing That Transforms Properties
Pressure washing in Fort Lauderdale is a maintenance necessity, not a luxury — because in South Florida's warm, humid climate, every outdoor surface accumulates the mold, algae, mildew, salt deposits, and biological staining that are unavoidable in the Fort Lauderdale environment. Left untreated, biological growth stains exterior surfaces permanently, accelerates the deterioration of concrete, stucco, and painted finishes, and creates the slip hazards on walkways and driveways that expose property owners to liability. At Planet Construction FL, we pressure wash and soft wash the full range of exterior surfaces on residential, commercial, and multi-family properties throughout Broward County — removing years of accumulation and restoring surfaces to the appearance they had when they were new.
Florida Grime Builds Up Faster Than You Think
The Planet Construction Approach
South Florida's heat and humidity grow algae, mildew, and mold on every exterior surface — and the dirt, salt, and pollution that settle on top make it worse. Within a year or two, buildings, walkways, driveways, pool decks, and roofs look dingy, streaked, and tired even when they're structurally fine. Most owners stop seeing it because the change happens slowly, but everyone else does.

Call (754) 301-6747How long does pressure washing last in Fort Lauderdale?
Pressure washing results in Fort Lauderdale typically remain fresh for 6–18 months before biological regrowth and accumulation return the surface to a condition warranting cleaning again. The time between cleaning cycles depends on the surface's shade and moisture exposure — shaded, moist surfaces in South Florida's climate can show significant algae regrowth within 3–6 months, while clean, sun-exposed concrete surfaces may stay clean for 12–18 months. Applying a biocide treatment after cleaning extends the period before biological regrowth returns.
Will pressure washing damage my stucco?
High-pressure washing at 2,000+ PSI can damage stucco, force water behind the stucco system, and strip paint if the wrong equipment or technique is used. Planet Construction FL uses soft washing — low-pressure water with appropriate cleaning solutions — on stucco surfaces, which effectively removes biological growth without the mechanical damage that high-pressure water causes on delicate exterior finishes. If your stucco has been damaged by a previous contractor's pressure washing, we assess the damage and recommend the appropriate repair approach.
Can pressure washing remove oil stains from concrete?
Hot water pressure washing with a degreasing agent removes fresh and moderate oil staining from concrete effectively. Old, deeply set oil staining may require chemical treatment — applying a commercial degreaser, allowing it to dwell, and agitating with a rotary surface cleaner before pressure rinsing — to achieve significant improvement. Very old, deep-penetrating oil stains may be permanently set in the concrete surface and unresponsive to cleaning. We assess the staining condition and set realistic expectations before committing to a cleaning outcome.
Is pressure washing required before exterior painting?
Yes — pressure washing is a mandatory first step in any exterior painting project at Planet Construction FL. The accumulated mold, mildew, salt, and chalking paint on Fort Lauderdale's exterior surfaces prevent proper paint adhesion if they are not removed before new paint is applied. Paint applied over contaminated surfaces will delaminate within months regardless of product quality. Pressure washing the surface and allowing it to dry completely is the first step of our surface preparation process on every exterior painting project.
