Pressure washing · Wellington
Pressure washing that brings surfaces back to life.
Wellington's weather leaves its mark, mould, moss, grime and salt. Silver Fern Painting washes it all away, from house exteriors and commercial buildings to driveways and paths, using the right pressure for every surface.
What we clean
What we pressure wash
House exteriors - weatherboard, cladding and walls, brought back to a clean, fresh finish.
Commercial buildings - shopfronts, offices and premises kept looking professional.
Driveways, paths & paved areas - lifting years of dirt, moss and grime from concrete, pavers and tiles.
Decks, fences & outdoor surfaces - on request.
We match the technique and pressure to each surface, including gentle soft washing where something delicate needs it, so everything comes up clean, without damage.
Why it matters
A clean exterior does more than look good
In Wellington's damp, coastal climate, exterior surfaces pick up mould, moss, algae and salt surprisingly fast. Left to build up, that grime doesn't just look tired, it holds moisture, gets slippery underfoot, and can shorten the life of your paint, timber and paving. A regular wash protects your property and keeps it looking its best.
Painting soon? Washing comes first.
Pressure washing, or water blasting as it's often called, is the essential first step before any exterior repaint. Paint only bonds and lasts on a properly cleaned surface. We can wash as part of a paint job, or as a standalone clean whenever your place needs freshening up.
