Does Pressure Washing Really Make a Difference?
If you have never seen a handyman using a pressure washing machine, you might be wondering what the big deal is — can't you get pretty much the same effect by spraying your house with your garden hose? The answer is no, not even close. Pressure washing machines use high-pressure jets of water to blast away built up grime, mildew and plant growth, leaving your outdoor surfaces and items looking brand-new again. The washers produce pressures that range between 750 and 3,000 psi (pound-force per square inch), which is capable of removing grime, algae, loose paint and substances that other cleaning methods simply can't budge. For comparison, a typical garden hose produces pressures that range around 200 to 400 psi.
PAROLE WINDOW REPAIR & REPLACEMENT
Windows are clearly (pun intended) an indispensable part of our homes. They provide us with natural light, fresh air and those beautiful coastal views. But they can also cause some trouble for homeowners when they are in rough shape, from causing you to pay too much on your utility bill to making your home less comfortable and safe. The difference between having energy efficient windows versus windows that have seriously deteriorated is well worth getting professional repairs or replacement from a Parole handyman.
Advantages of Professional Service:
- When your window frames degrade, they let in air drafts that change the temperature of your home and cause your heating and cooling system to turn on and try to restore your house to the temperature you have set on your thermostat. Your HVAC system has to use even more energy than it normally would, so it causes your energy bill to increase. By installing a new, energy efficient window, your Parole handyman can seal out the air drafts and save you money on your monthly bills.
- Fixing or replacing damaged windows will also help to keep your home structurally sound. A damaged window lets excess moisture into the wall, where it can encourage the growth of wood rot, a form of decay that causes damp timber to weaken and crumble. That excess moisture can also encourage mold or mildew to grow inside your walls, which poses a hazard to the health of you and your family.
- If it feels like your home never really gets warm enough in the winter or cool enough in the summer, damaged or inefficient windows could be to blame. A new installation that is highly rated for energy efficiency will make your home a lot more comfortable all year round.
When most people think about a broken window, they picture a mess of smashed glass. That is certainly one glaring sign that you need to contact a professional, but the signs of damage can be a lot less obvious. If you are aware of the symptoms, you can get the problem corrected with professional Parole handyman services before it has a chance to get worse.
Signs You Need Window Repair or Replacement:
- It is colder near windows
- You can feel air drafts coming in even though the window is closed
- There are patches of rotting, crumbling wood on window frames or sills
- Window is foggy because of condensation trapped between panes
- Window is difficult to open or close
- Insects are getting in through torn screens or rotted frames
- There is excessive moisture on the glass inside
- You notice signs of water damage on the wall beside or underneath a window
- Your energy bill is increasing
If you have noticed one (or multiple) problems with your windows and you want to improve the comfort, safety and energy efficiency of your home, count on our Parole home repair professionals for expert, reliable services.
