Pressure washing in Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs names power washing on its list of storm drain problems. The city's Stormwater Enterprise says power washing blasts filth off hard surfaces, and that the wastewater can carry sediment, detergent, oil and paint into the creeks. Under the city's definition, any discharge to the stormwater system that isn't entirely stormwater is an illicit discharge.

The page sets out what happens when something big gets away. If a large oil or fluid spill reaches a storm inlet, the party responsible has to hire an environmental cleaning company. Non-emergency reports go to the Stormwater Enterprise, and the city also takes them online and through its GoCOS! app.

The Enterprise lists the flows it does allow. They include individual residential car washing, landscape irrigation and lawn watering, and water from street sweeping that isn't tied to construction. Power washing isn't one of them, so the runoff from a driveway or a wall has to be kept out of the drain, whether or not it has soap in it.

Questions homeowners ask

How accurate is a photo estimate?
It’s a ballpark, not a quote. A photo gives us a good read on the surface and how dirty it is, but a pro who sees the whole property will always be more precise. Use our number as the range to expect before you start calling around.
How is pressure washing priced?
Mostly by the square footage and the surface — a concrete driveway is cheaper per foot than siding or a wood deck, which need a gentler soft-wash. Heavy algae, mildew, or oil stains add to it because they take detergent and a second pass.
Will pressure washing damage my siding or deck?
It can if it’s done at full pressure on the wrong surface — that’s why good pros soft-wash siding and wood. Our ballpark factors in the gentler method for delicate surfaces.
Is this really free?
Yes. No signup, no credit card, no spam. We only make money if you choose to connect with a local pro — and that’s up to you.
What photo works best?
One shot showing the full surface you want cleaned — the whole driveway or the side of the house — gives the best read on the size and how dirty it is.
