Pressure washing prices depend on what is being cleaned and the method that surface can tolerate. A driveway, wood deck, interlock patio and painted siding should not be priced as though they were the same job.

What belongs in a cleaning quote?
List the surfaces and approximate dimensions, then separate ordinary cleaning from stain treatment, repairs, re-sanding, sealing and staining. A quote is easier to compare when these boundaries are explicit.
| Area | Useful details to send | Separate work to discuss |
|---|---|---|
| Driveway and walkways | Material, length, width and visible stains | Crack repair, sealing or damaged pavement |
| Interlock patio | Paver type, joint condition and existing sealer | Joint restoration, levelling or sealing |
| Wood or composite deck | Material, coating, railings and access | Repairs, stripping or staining |
| Siding or exterior walls | Material, height and nearby planting | A lower-pressure method where appropriate |
| Fence | Material, length, height and which sides need cleaning | Repairs or refinishing |
Driveways and walkways
Provide the surface material and approximate area. Mention oil spots, existing coatings and loose or damaged sections. A cleaning quote should not promise that every absorbed stain will disappear or that cleaning will repair the pavement.
Interlock needs attention to the joints as well as the paver faces. See how to clean interlock without damaging the joints before comparing cleaning-only and restoration quotes.
Decks and patios
Deck material and existing finish affect the method. Include railings, steps and multiple levels in your request. Ask whether furniture needs moving and whether access below or around the deck affects the work.
Cleaning, stripping and staining are different services. A quote for washing should not be treated as including coating removal or refinishing unless it says so.
Siding and home exteriors
The suitable cleaning method depends on the material, finish and condition. Discuss a lower-pressure soft-washing approach where appropriate. Identify damaged areas, openings and nearby surfaces that need protecting.
Fences
State the material, approximate height and length, and whether one or both sides need attention. Access through neighbouring property should be arranged separately when required. Painting, staining and repairs need their own scope.
Combining several areas
If you want several surfaces cleaned, list them together so the full scope can be assessed. Ask for the combined price and any optional items in writing. Do not assume a percentage discount or a standard “whole property” package includes every surface.
What can change the total?
- The material and the method it requires.
- The measured area and number of separate sections.
- Stains, buildup and existing coatings.
- Height, obstacles, water access and equipment access.
- Any agreed preparation, protection or additional treatment.
To request pressure washing in Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge or Guelph, send your location, photos and approximate dimensions. Confirm the inclusions, taxes and access arrangements in the written quote.
Frequently asked questions
How much does D&D pressure washing cost?
Pressure washing starts at $350. The final quote depends on the surfaces, area, condition, access and agreed work.
Does pressure washing include sealing?
Do not assume it does. Cleaning, joint restoration and sealing should be listed separately in the scope.
Can the same pressure be used on every surface?
No. The method needs to suit the material, finish and condition. Discuss lower-pressure cleaning where appropriate.
Will every stain be removed?
Not necessarily. Some staining and existing surface damage can remain. Ask what result is realistic for the material and condition.
