Pressure Washing: Settegast, Harris County
the Settegast area of Houston sits inside Harris County, and the housing stock changes street to street. We set the pressure washing scope after looking at your house rather than off a price sheet, because Too much pressure on siding drives water behind the boards, which is worse than the dirt.
