Meet Craig – Exterior Cleaning Team Lead

Craig leads our pressure washing, roof cleaning, and window and gutter cleaning crew, serving Pittsburgh, Murrysville, Greensburg, and Irwin. He brings the same careful attention to every exterior job, backed by the Grato Guarantee — your project isn’t done until you’re happy with the result.

Your driveway is the first thing people see when they arrive at your property. Oil stains, tire marks, algae growth, and years of ground-in dirt make even a well-maintained home look neglected. Grato Property Care restores your concrete surfaces to a clean, fresh appearance that makes the whole property look sharp.

We pressure wash driveways, sidewalks, walkways, patios, garage floors, and any other concrete or hard surface on your property. We remove staining, biological growth, and embedded grime that regular cleaning simply cannot touch.

The GRATO Difference Most crews run a pressure washer over a surface and call it done. Our team works the entire surface thoroughly — edges, corners, and problem spots included. A job is not finished until we are proud of the result.

What You Get

Your deck and fence take a beating year-round. Western PA winters, spring moisture, summer heat, and fall debris all leave their mark — in the form of mold, mildew, algae, greying wood, and embedded grime. Left untreated, that buildup does not just look bad. It accelerates deterioration and shortens the life of your investment.

Grato Property Care cleans wood, composite, vinyl, and metal decks and fences using the right pressure and technique for the material. We remove biological growth, staining, and surface buildup without splintering wood or damaging composite materials — restoring the appearance of your deck and fence and extending their lifespan.

The GRATO Difference Deck and fence cleaning requires more care and precision than concrete. Too much pressure on the wrong surface causes lasting damage. Our team is trained to match the method to the material — so you get a thorough clean that protects your surface rather than harming it.

What You Get

The exterior walls of your home or business are constantly exposed to dirt, algae, mold, mildew, pollen, and pollution. Over time that buildup stains siding, clogs surfaces, and makes even newer properties look old and worn. A professional house or building wash is one of the highest-return exterior maintenance services you can invest in — dramatically improving appearance without the cost of painting or replacing siding.

Grato Property Care uses soft wash and pressure washing techniques depending on your siding type and condition. We safely clean vinyl, aluminum, wood, stucco, brick, and other exterior surfaces — removing biological growth and staining and restoring your property's appearance from top to bottom.

The GRATO Difference A house wash is not just about looks. Mold and algae on siding can work their way into seams and joints over time, causing damage that is expensive to repair. Regular washing protects the structure of your property — not just the appearance. We treat it that way.

What You Get

Those black streaks on your roof are not just an eyesore — they are a living organism called Gloeocapsa Magma, a bacteria that feeds on the limestone filler in your shingles. Left untreated, it spreads, holds moisture against your roof surface, and shortens the life of your shingles by years. What looks like a cosmetic issue is actually an active threat to one of the most expensive components of your property.

Grato Property Care uses a low-pressure soft wash method to safely remove algae, moss, lichen, and biological staining from your roof without voiding manufacturer warranties or damaging shingles. High-pressure washing on a roof causes granule loss and premature wear — we never do it. Soft wash delivers a deeper, longer-lasting clean at the right pressure for the surface.

The GRATO Difference Roof cleaning done wrong causes real damage. We are exterior cleaning certified and trained in safe, manufacturer-recommended soft wash methods. You get a clean roof that looks better, lasts longer, and does not cost you a warranty claim or a shingle replacement down the road.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pressure Washing

Is pressure washing safe for all surfaces?

Not all surfaces should be pressure washed at the same pressure or with the same method. That is why Grato uses both pressure washing and soft washing depending on the surface. Hard surfaces like concrete and brick can handle higher pressure. Delicate surfaces like roof shingles, wood siding, and composite decking require a low-pressure soft wash approach to get a thorough clean without causing damage. We assess every surface before we start and always use the method that gets the best result safely.

How often should I have my property pressure washed?

For most homeowners in Westmoreland County, an annual exterior cleaning is the right cadence — typically in spring to remove winter buildup, or in fall to prepare the property heading into the colder months. High-traffic surfaces like driveways and walkways may benefit from cleaning twice a year. Roofs typically need cleaning every two to three years depending on tree cover and shade. We can assess your specific property and recommend a schedule that makes sense.

Will pressure washing damage my siding, deck, or roof?

Done correctly, no. Done incorrectly, yes — and that is a real risk with inexperienced crews who use too much pressure on the wrong surface. Our team is exterior cleaning certified and trained to match the method and pressure to the material.

We use appropriate pressure levels for wood and composite decking. You will not end up with splintered wood, damaged shingles, or stripped siding when Grato is on the job.

What is the difference between pressure washing and soft washing?

Pressure washing uses high-pressure water to blast away dirt, staining, and buildup from hard surfaces like concrete, brick, and stone. Soft washing uses lower pressure combined with professional cleaning solutions to safely remove biological growth — algae, mold, mildew, and bacteria — from more delicate surfaces like roofs, siding, and wood. The cleaning solution does the heavy lifting, not the pressure. Grato uses both methods and selects the right one based on the surface being cleaned.

Do I need to be home for the pressure washing service?

Not necessarily. As long as we have access to the areas being cleaned and a water source, many jobs can be completed while you are away. We will communicate clearly before the appointment about what access we need and confirm everything is set before we start. If you prefer to be home, we are happy to walk through the results with you when the job is complete.

How long does a typical pressure washing job take?

It depends on the size of the property and the services being performed. A driveway cleaning typically takes one to two hours. A full house wash can take two to four hours. A roof cleaning varies based on roof size and the level of biological growth present. We will give you a realistic time estimate when we provide your free quote so you know what to expect.

Do you offer recurring pressure washing service or maintenance plans?

Yes. We offer seasonal agreements that bundle exterior cleaning services so your property stays maintained year-round without you having to remember to call each season. It is one of the most popular options for homeowners who want a consistently well-kept property without the hassle of scheduling individual services every time. Ask us about seasonal maintenance plans when you request your free estimate.
