The cost to pressure wash a driveway typically ranges from about $100 to $500, with most people paying around $210 on average. The price depends primarily on the size and material of the driveway. Professionals usually charge between $0.30 and $0.55 per square foot
. Key factors affecting cost:
- Driveway size: Larger driveways cost more to clean; for example, a 576-square-foot driveway might cost between $175 and $320
- Material: Concrete driveways are generally the least expensive to pressure wash, while gravel and paver driveways tend to be more costly due to their delicate surfaces
- Condition: Heavily soiled or stained driveways may require additional cleaning solutions or longer labor, increasing the price
- Labor: Some companies charge hourly rates between $60 and $125, but most charge by square footage. Minimum fees may apply for smaller driveways
Typical cost examples by driveway size:
Square Footage| Average Cost Range
---|---
200| $60 – $110
300| $90 – $165
400| $120 – $220
576| $175 – $320
800| $240 – $440
1,000| $300 – $550
Pressure washing not only improves curb appeal but also removes moss, mold, and slippery substances, making the surface safer to walk on
. Hiring a professional is recommended to avoid damage and ensure safety during the cleaning process
