I always like to see if there's anything else I can clean at my clients houses!

I played Power Wash Sim a few years ago which made me think about washing my own place. It had not been done in 20 years. I live in the Pacific Northwest where there's lots of rain and thus lots of moss. The washer is a Ryobi electric 1800 psi. I saw it on sale for $75. Knowing they have a reputation for breaking, I thought that was cheap enough to see if I would like to do this more often. I started on the back patio then went back to the store for the surface cleaner. I was glad I did to. The pictures are in order of what I did first, the back patio, the back garage, back drive way, and finally the front walk and front driveway when I felt confident enough that I'd do a decent job. I figured out I had to sweep the excess water to see under it, which I discovered halfway through the back driveway.

No chemicals, all water.

Any advice/pointers/feedback other then get a gas washer?

Long time window washing customer finally let me pressure wash her back patio and elevated walkway. Took just over 30 gallons of moss off the patio, and had to turbo almost the entire thing before surface cleaning because the moss was so thick and dug in. And yes, I pressure washed the stairs and handrails as well. Not too bad of a day honestly. Sunny and 35 out.

Neglected the back deck last year and gave it some love.
