Welcome to July, a great month for pressure washing your home or business.

Summer is now in full swing, because July is here, along with hot weather, pool days and lots of
activities in the greater Charlotte, NC area! And while our pressure washing schedule for the
Charlotte area is packed, we do have some openings. Just imagine heading out for a day of family fun. Your house’s exterior is a bit dull, because of the dirt and grime that naturally collects over the years. At the end of the day, you arrive home to a house that sparkles and shines like the day it was built. These are the kinds of results you will get from our expert cleaning crews.
Now, as you consider the best day for that family outing and pressure washing appointment, consider these facts about the month of July.
July Facts

Canada remained a part of the British Empire until 1982.

Did You Know? John Adams believed that July 2 would be the day when Americans would celebrate their independence. On July 3, 1776, he wrote to his wife, Abigail: “The second day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epocha in the history of America.
