How a booking runs

  1. Set your price above.
  2. Pick a day. No card needed.
  3. We match a verified local pro and confirm within 24 hours, by text.
  4. You pay once the job’s done and signed off.

Driveway, siding, deck — each measured on its own. The price moves as you answer. Pick a dry day, and we confirm your pro within 24 hours.

What moves the price

House exterior, driveway & paths, deck or patio, roof moss treatment and fences or retaining walls each add time on their own, so two jobs that differ in one answer differ in price by exactly that answer. Gutter flush and outdoor tap are a flat line at the end — the same price whatever else is on the job. The rest scale the whole job:

StoreysAgainst “One”: Two ×1.22, Three or more ×1.40. Scales house exterior and roof moss treatment only. Asked only when house exterior is in the job.
Wash typeAgainst “Standard”: Soft wash ×0.90, Heavy duty ×1.35. Scales house exterior only. Asked only when house exterior is in the job.
ConditionAgainst “Normal”: Light ×0.85, Moss & heavy staining ×1.40.
How oftenAgainst “One time”: Yearly ×0.95, Twice a year ×0.88.

The job minimum is $240. Below that, you pay the minimum.

What’s included — and what isn’t

  • Each surface you pick, at the right pressure for it — soft-wash on siding, not raw pressure
  • Moss and algae treatment where the condition calls for it
  • Water and equipment brought to site

Sealing is a separate job a week later, after the slab dries. Roof treatment is its own trade. Anything the wash reveals — lifted paint, soft wood — is found work, not quoted work.

Questions

How much does pressure washing cost in Vancouver?

For the jobs in the table, $612 to $2,312 before GST in 2026. The exact figure depends on your answers on the card above; you see it before you book, and it doesn’t change on the day unless you change the job.

Is GST included?

Prices are before GST (5%). Pay by bank transfer after the work, or by card at 3% more. Nothing is charged until the job is done and signed off.

Will it damage my siding?

Not done properly. Siding gets a low-pressure wash with a cleaning agent; the high pressure stays on concrete. That’s why each surface is priced separately.

How long does it last?

On the coast, moss comes back in a couple of wet seasons on a shaded surface. A yearly wash prices better per visit than calling someone once it’s gone green.

Do I need to be there?

Only to give access to an outdoor tap and to move the cars. Say how in the notes.
