Who we recommend, what it should cost, and what to ask before you book.
Sorts out which surfaces are yours to book, and photographs the job for owners who are not there.
Visit Grand Strand Pressure WashingDisclosure: the crews recommended on this page are part of Trusted Local Network — we have a commercial interest in them, and you should weigh that. Nobody pays for placement, and the pricing and hiring advice here is the same advice we would give about any crew.
The Grand Strand is the metro where the first question is not how dirty something is but whether it is yours to clean. A large share of property here sits in a condo regime, a townhome association or a POA, and in those the building's siding, roof, breezeways and shared walkways are normally on the association's own cleaning contract, while what belongs to you is narrower — your balcony or deck, your unit's glass and door, and on a detached lot your own driveway and walk. Read your governing documents and ask the management company what is already on the cycle before you pay privately for the same work, then hire for the part that is genuinely yours. The second thing is that a lot of owners here are not at the property. If you live inland or out of state and the place is rented, settle the access question when you book rather than on the day — who opens the gate or the lockbox, where the outside spigot is, and whether the water and power are actually switched on at an empty unit, because a wash cannot happen without water. Ask for dated before-and-after photographs of every surface on the invoice and one named person to deal with, instead of a text saying it is finished. Third, the calendar here runs on the booking season rather than the weather: summer is the busy stretch, so the off-season is the easier window to get a crew and to wash between guests. But Horry County does get hard cold snaps, and washing is a water job, so ask what happens to your date and to your quote when a freeze moves it.
House soft-washing usually runs about $150-$450 depending on size, driveways and concrete $100-$250, and a full roof soft-wash $300-$700. Reputable crews quote a flat price by the job — roughly $0.10-$0.60 per square foot depending on the surface, with flat concrete at the low end and soft-washed siding, decks, and roofs at the high end — not by the hour. On a condo or townhome, have the quote written against the surfaces that are actually yours — a building's roof and shared walls normally sit on the association's contract rather than on your invoice.
It depends on where the surface sits in your documents rather than on who is living there. In most regimes the building's roof, siding, breezeways and shared walkways are common elements the association cleans on its own schedule with its own contractor, and an individual owner cannot really hire that part out. What is usually yours is the limited or private portion — your balcony or deck, your unit's windows and door, and on a detached lot your own driveway and walk. Check your governing documents and ask the management company what is already on the cycle, so you are not paying privately for work that is already covered.
Ask for the proof when you book rather than after. Dated before-and-after photographs of each surface on the invoice are easy to request and most established crews already take them. Agree the access in advance — who opens a gate or lockbox, where the outside spigot is, and whether water and power are on at an unoccupied unit. Ask for one named contact and get the scope in writing, so the photographs are being checked against a list you both agreed to rather than against memory.
Yes — our Myrtle Beach pick covers the city along with those Horry County towns, beachfront and inland alike. Say up front if the property is a rental or sits in an association, because the scheduling window and the surfaces that are yours to book vary more across this metro than the drive between towns does.
