Power Washing at a property in Buffalo Grove on Bernard Drive. 1120 sq ft. Completed by our Arlington Heights team.
— Arlington Heights crew
Buffalo Grove yards take a beating through the long winter, and by the time we arrived at this property on a mid-morning in late spring, the concrete patio showed it. Roughly 1,120 square feet of surface had accumulated the kind of layered grime that builds up over months — ground-in soil, algae starting to take hold in the shadier corners, and the general gray film that settles into unsealed concrete after freeze-thaw cycles work it over. The customer had a coupon toward the service, bringing the total to $425, and the job was straightforward in scope if not in condition.
We started at nine and ran the pressure washer methodically across the full patio surface, working in overlapping passes to avoid streaking and giving the heavily soiled sections extra attention. The concrete was dirty enough that a single pass wasn't going to cut it in places — we slowed down and let the pressure do its work rather than rushing through. The grime lifted steadily, and the surface came up consistent and clean by the time we wrapped at eleven-thirty. Invoice went out the same day.

Common questions from Buffalo Grove homeowners researching Power Washing.
For a patio around 1,120 sq ft, this job ran $425 — a fair benchmark for heavily soiled concrete or paver surfaces in the Buffalo Grove area. Most residential patio power washing in the Chicago suburbs falls between $150 and $500 depending on square footage and how much buildup has accumulated.
A patio in this size range typically takes one to two hours under normal conditions. This particular job ran a bit longer because the surface was heavily soiled and required slower, more deliberate passes to fully clear the grime.
We wash the entire patio surface, working methodically across all 1,120 sq ft to remove dirt, algae, mildew staining, and embedded grime. We also clear debris from the edges and take care around nearby landscaping and furniture so nothing gets damaged in the process.
Pressure that's too high can etch concrete or dislodge sand from paver joints, so we adjust the PSI and nozzle angle based on the surface material. On this job, the heavy soiling meant we needed sustained pressure, but we kept settings dialed in to clean thoroughly without pitting or scarring the surface.
