Chandler's newer subdivisions are almost all stucco, and stucco is the surface most often damaged by a pressure washer in the hands of someone who only owns one setting.
Pfaff Cleaning Co. is locally owned, with the owners overseeing every job. See our full process and service area on the main pressure washing page.
Washing is 15% off when you book online. Paver sanding and sealing is not discounted.
Stucco, painted block, tile roofing, and natural stone are soft washed. Full pressure on those surfaces causes damage worse than the dirt was.

Driveways, walkways, patios, pool decks, pavers, block walls, fences, stucco exteriors, and tile roofing. Both pressure washing and soft washing, chosen by surface rather than by habit.
The skill here is not owning a pressure washer. Wrong pressure or wrong technique etches concrete, strips stucco, cracks pavers, and damages roof tile. Stucco, painted block, tile roofing, and natural stone all get soft washed, which uses lower pressure with cleaning solutions instead of force.
A company that defaults to full pressure on every surface is a real risk on any property with premium exterior material.
Dirt, dust, algae, mildew, and general weathering come off reliably. Rust, deeply set oil, fertilizer staining, and some discoloration may not fully disappear regardless of method. We say which one you have during the inspection rather than after the invoice.
Cheap pressure washing is fast because it blasts everything, including your stucco. We take our time and read the surface first.
Most of the damage we get called to look at was done by pressure. Stucco pitted, paint stripped in stripes, mortar cut out from between pavers, wood furred up. All of it from someone treating a pressure washer as the whole method.
What we charge for is knowing which surface takes pressure and which takes chemistry and a soft wash. On a house that means the cleaner does the work and the water rinses. On concrete it means a surface cleaner for an even finish rather than the wand stripes that never come out.
Cheap pressure washing is fast because it skips the part where you decide what the surface can take.
Siding cleaning on stucco, block, and painted surfaces is a soft wash, because high pressure on stucco takes the finish off with the dirt. Concrete and pavers take more pressure and a surface cleaner for an even finish.
Monsoon rain mixes with dust and pollen into streaking that bakes onto exteriors through the rest of the year, and by September most Chandler homes have a season of it on the north and west faces.
Newer developments near the Loop 202 corridor also carry larger paver patios and extended driveways, both of which show staining more visibly than the smaller concrete pads on older homes near Downtown Chandler.
Full pressure on stucco strips texture and drives water behind the surface. We soft wash it, which uses lower pressure with cleaning solutions instead of force, and we switch methods surface by surface on the same property rather than running one setting across everything.
Pressure where concrete can take it. Soft wash where stucco cannot.

Yes, homes throughout Chandler and the surrounding Valley.
Not at full pressure. Stucco is soft washed, which uses lower pressure with cleaning solutions instead of force.
Most improve significantly. Oil that has deeply set into the concrete may not fully disappear, and we say which you have before we start.
Yes, with optional sanding and sealing afterward to protect the joints and the surface.
Yes. Full pressure cracks and chips roof tile, so roof work is soft washed.
About once a year for most properties, more often with heavy dust, nearby construction, or shaded areas prone to algae.
Late September into October, after monsoon season stops undoing the work.
People use the two the same way, and so do we. What matters is matching pressure and water to the surface: full pressure where concrete can take it, a soft wash on stucco and wood.
Driveways from $350, or $297.50 online. House washing from $800. Paver sealing is priced per square foot and not discounted.
