Yes, there is a difference between commercial and residential pressure washing. Commercial pressure washing is a much more involved process than residential pressure washing due to the demands of high traffic areas such as driveways, restaurant patios, sidewalks, and loading docks. The detergents used for commercial power washes are designed to deeply penetrate dirt and grime in order to get the job done quickly and effectively – something that isn’t necessarily possible or necessary in residential settings. Big thanks to The Powerwashing Kings for sharing this information on the difference between commercial and residential pressure washing with us!
