What happens here

Prepare for pressure washing by setting up a pressure washer (e.g., a gas-powered unit like the Generac 3100 PSI or similar). Connect the water supply and appropriate spray nozzles. Begin pressure washing the entire exterior of the house, focusing on all siding, trim, fascia, and eaves. Work systematically from top to bottom to ensure that all loosened debris and dirt are washed downwards and away. Pay close attention to areas identified during the initial walkaround that had mildew or loose paint to ensure a clean, stable surface for subsequent steps. Ensure adequate water pressure to clean effectively without damaging the surface.

Goal: Set up a pressure washer and thoroughly clean all exterior surfaces, including siding and trim, working from top to bottom to remove dirt, grime, and loose paint.
