Power Washing at a property in Glenview on Lexington Lane. 450 sq ft. Completed by our Northbrook team.
— Northbrook crew
By late winter, a two-car garage floor in Glenview accumulates a particular kind of damage — not just dirt, but the layered residue of months of road salt tracked in on tires and boots, ground into a coated concrete surface until the whole floor carries a dull, gritty film. That's what we found when we arrived at this property just after noon. The 450-square-foot coated floor had taken a full season's worth of salt and winter grime, and it needed more than a rinse to come clean.
We started at 12:25 and applied soap first, letting the detergent work into the salt residue before we brought the pressure washer to bear. The coating required care — enough pressure to lift the embedded grime without damaging the surface beneath. Working systematically across the floor, we cleared the buildup in passes, rinsing thoroughly until the concrete came back even and clean. The job wrapped at 2:25, two hours from start to finish, with the invoice sent once we were done on-site.
Crew on this job
Timothy
Timothy may be our youngest technician, but don’t let that fool you. He’s experienced, professional, courteous, and already knows his way around the job like a seasoned pro. He’s also a promising DJ, so there’s a good chance he can fix the problem and recommend a solid playlist while he’s at it. Everyone loves Timothy because he’s easy to talk to, always upbeat, and genuinely enjoys meeting people. He also has a strange love for Wisconsin, which we still haven’t fully figured out - but nobody’s perfect.

Common questions from Glenview homeowners researching Power Washing.
For a roughly 450 sq ft surface in Glenview, this job ran $250, which is typical for smaller-to-mid-sized power washing projects in the area. Most residential power washing in the Chicago North Shore suburbs falls somewhere between $150 and $400 depending on square footage, surface type, and how heavily soiled the area is.
A job this size generally takes one to two hours for a professional crew. This particular project required extra time because the surface was heavily soiled and needed a soap application before rinsing, but the process was still completed in a single visit.
The service covers a full pressure wash of the designated surface area — in this case approximately 450 sq ft. When buildup is heavy, as it was here, we apply a detergent pre-treatment to break down grime before the high-pressure rinse, leaving the surface clean without cutting corners on heavily soiled spots.
We use water alone when surface conditions allow it, but on dirtier jobs we introduce a biodegradable soap to loosen embedded grime before the pressure rinse — exactly what was needed on this 450 sq ft project. The detergent is safe for the surrounding area and rinsed away completely as part of the process. For a quote, call our Northbrook team at (847) 297-4492.
