You know that feeling when you finally see your driveway without the black streaks, or your siding without years of buildup. That’s what we’re talking about.
Your home doesn’t just look better—it’s healthier. We remove the mold, mildew, and allergens that accumulate in Plainview’s humid climate. Your family breathes easier, and your surfaces last longer.
The difference shows immediately. Neighbors on Washington Avenue and Old Country Road notice. Your property value reflects it. And you get that satisfaction of knowing your biggest investment is properly maintained.
We’re CPR Power Washing, and we’ve been serving Plainview homeowners for three years with a simple approach: do the job right, stand behind the work, and treat your property like our own.
Niko built this company around professionalism and accountability, not high volume or cheap prices. We’re licensed and insured because that matters when someone’s working on your $729,000 home in one of Long Island’s most desirable communities.
In Plainview’s competitive market, your home’s appearance directly impacts its value. We understand that, and we approach every job knowing your neighbors are watching and your investment is on the line.
First, we assess your surfaces and identify what needs attention. Not everything gets the same treatment—your roof requires different techniques than your driveway, and your vinyl siding needs different care than your stone walkway.
We use professional-grade equipment with adjustable pressure settings. This isn’t a rental unit from the hardware store. Our crew knows which surfaces can handle high pressure and which need the soft washing approach that protects your investment.
The process typically takes a few hours, depending on your property size. We protect your landscaping, clean up after ourselves, and walk you through the results. If something isn’t right, we fix it before we leave. That’s the accountability you get with a licensed, insured operation.

Your power washing service covers all the surfaces that matter: siding, driveways, walkways, patios, decks, and fencing. We also handle those detail areas that make the difference—around doorways, under eaves, and along foundation lines.
In Plainview’s tree-lined neighborhoods, we see a lot of organic buildup from shade and moisture. Properties near the school districts and parks often deal with extra pollen and organic debris. We use the right cleaning solutions to break down algae and mildew without damaging your surfaces or harming your landscaping.
We often identify other maintenance needs during the cleaning process—minor masonry repairs or areas that might benefit from seasonal protection. That’s the advantage of working with a company that handles multiple exterior services. We can take care of everything in one visit instead of you coordinating with different contractors.
Most Plainview homes benefit from professional power washing every 12-18 months, though this varies based on your specific conditions. Homes with more shade from mature trees or those facing north tend to develop algae and mildew faster due to less direct sunlight.
If you’re seeing green or black streaks on your siding, dark stains on your driveway, or buildup around your foundation, it’s time for cleaning. Waiting too long allows organic growth to become more established, making removal more difficult and potentially requiring stronger cleaning solutions.
Regular pressure washing actually extends the life of your surfaces and maintains your property value. In Plainview’s competitive real estate market, a well-maintained exterior can add thousands to your home’s value and helps it sell faster if you decide to move.
Not all surfaces should be power washed the same way, and that’s where professional experience matters. We adjust our pressure and techniques based on what we’re cleaning—your vinyl siding gets different treatment than your concrete driveway.
Delicate surfaces like roof shingles, painted wood, or certain types of stone require lower pressure or specialized soft washing techniques. Using too much pressure can damage these materials, strip paint, or force water into places it shouldn’t go, potentially causing interior damage.
Our crew has the training and equipment to clean every surface safely. We start with the gentlest effective method and only increase pressure if needed. That’s the difference between professional service and DIY attempts with an electric pressure washer that can end up costing thousands in repairs.
The terms are often used interchangeably, but there’s a technical difference. Power washing uses heated water along with high pressure, while pressure washing relies on cold water and pressure alone. Both methods are effective for different applications.
For most residential cleaning in Plainview—like siding, driveways, and decks—pressure washing with cold water is perfectly effective and gentler on surfaces. We use heated water for specific situations where it provides better results, like removing certain types of stains or dealing with particularly stubborn organic growth.
What matters more than the terminology is using the right technique for each surface. Our crew knows when to use high pressure, when to use low pressure, when to add heat, and which cleaning solutions work best for different types of buildup. That expertise is what you’re paying for with professional power washing services.
Absolutely, and in fact, proper power washing is essential before any painting project. Paint adheres much better to clean surfaces, and any dirt, mildew, or chalky residue left on your siding will cause premature paint failure.
We typically recommend power washing 2-3 days before painting to allow surfaces to fully dry. This timing works well in Plainview’s climate and gives you the best foundation for your paint job. Many painters actually require professional cleaning before they’ll warranty their work.
Our cleaning process removes not just visible dirt but also the microscopic contaminants that can interfere with paint adhesion. This preparation step can add years to your paint job’s lifespan and save you money on premature repainting. If you’re working with a painter, we can coordinate timing to keep your project on schedule.
We provide power washing services year-round, weather permitting. Winter cleaning can actually be beneficial for certain projects, especially when you’re preparing for spring renovations or dealing with salt residue from winter road treatments on driveways and walkways.
However, we won’t clean when temperatures are near freezing or when surfaces might not dry properly. Safety is our priority, both for our crew and your property. We’ll work with you to schedule service during suitable weather windows.
Many Plainview homeowners prefer fall cleaning to remove summer’s buildup before winter, or early spring cleaning to address winter damage and prepare for the active outdoor season. We can discuss the best timing based on your specific needs and local weather patterns.
Preparation is minimal, but a few simple steps help us work more efficiently. Remove any outdoor furniture, decorations, or vehicles from areas we’ll be cleaning. If you have delicate plants near the work area, let us know so we can take extra precautions.
Close all windows and doors to prevent water intrusion, and make sure we have access to an outdoor water spigot. If you have specific concerns about certain surfaces or areas, point those out when we arrive for the initial assessment.
We handle most of the preparation ourselves, including protecting landscaping and covering electrical fixtures. Our goal is to make the process as convenient as possible for you while ensuring we can do thorough, safe work. Most homeowners are surprised by how little they need to do beforehand.
