Pressure washing: what goes into itThese are typical ranges, not quotes. Your price depends on the size of the house or the surface, how dirty it is and how easy it is to reach, and the sections below explain what moves it. The dot marks the middle price, and a + means some businesses charge more. Where a job has no range, it's because we only show a price once enough Georgia businesses publish one.
House washing
House washing cleans the outside walls of the house, usually with a low-pressure soft wash that relies on a cleaning solution, not force, to lift dirt, mildew and algae. The range is for washing the whole house.
The range for this job is in the short answer above.
What moves the price
- Size of the house
- A larger house, or one with more than one story, takes more solution and more time, and the upper walls take ladders or extension wands.
- Siding material
- Vinyl, brick, stucco and painted wood each call for different solutions and care, and delicate surfaces can take longer.
- How dirty it is
- Heavy mildew, algae or mud splashed along the lower walls can take a stronger mix or a second pass.
- Bundling other surfaces
- Washing the driveway, the deck or the roof at the same visit is often priced as an add-on, and some companies take something off when you book more than one service.
Pressure washing
Pressure washing uses a high-pressure stream of water to clean hard surfaces such as driveways, sidewalks, patios and pool decks. The pressure washing range is a typical job price, and the driveway range is for cleaning a driveway alone.
The ranges for these jobs are in the short answer above.
What moves the price
- Square footage
- A longer driveway or a larger patio takes more time under the surface cleaner, so the price climbs with the area.
- Stains
- Oil, rust, tire marks and red clay often need a pretreatment that adds to the price, and some stains may not come out fully.
- Surface type
- Concrete can take high pressure, while wood, composite and painted surfaces need a gentler touch, and a crew may price them differently.
- Water at the site
- Many crews hook up to your outside faucet. If there is no working spigot nearby, ask whether they bring water and what that adds.
Roof cleaning
Roof cleaning removes the dark streaks, moss and algae that grow on a roof, usually with a soft wash, since high pressure can damage shingles. Gutter cleaning is a separate job; see what gutter cleaning costs. Loose shingles or leaks are a roof repair.
Roof cleaning
$450 to $650+
Prices from 10 Georgia painting and pressure washing companies
Roof cleaning: what goes into itWhat moves the price
- Pitch and height
- A steep roof, or one high off the ground, takes safety gear and slower work, which raises the price.
- Moss and lichen
- Thick moss or lichen takes more treatment than algae streaks, and some of it may only wash away with the rain over time.
- Roof material
- Asphalt shingles, metal and tile each call for different products and handling, and a tile roof, which can crack underfoot, often takes slower work that raises the price.
- Runoff below
- Cleaning solution runs into the gutters and onto the plants below, so rinsing plants and flushing the downspouts can be part of the job or an extra.
Interior painting
Interior painting covers walls, ceilings, trim and doors inside the house. We do not have a Georgia range for it yet. Painters often price by the room or by the square foot of wall, so ask which one a quote uses.

What moves the price
- Walls only or trim too
- Trim, doors and baseboards take careful brush work, so a quote that includes them costs more than walls alone.
- Color changes
- Going from a dark color to a light one, or the other way, can take a primer and extra coats.
- Wall repairs
- Patching holes and cracks and sanding them smooth before painting adds labor.
- Furniture and floors
- Moving furniture and covering floors is often part of the job, but a full room takes longer to set up.
Exterior house painting
Exterior house painting covers the siding, trim, doors and shutters. There is no Georgia range for it yet. Much of the price is preparation: washing, scraping, sanding, caulking and priming before the finish coats.

What moves the price
- Scraping and sanding
- Peeling paint has to be scraped and sanded, and the more of it there is, the longer the prep takes.
- Rotted wood
- Soft boards or trim are usually replaced before painting, and that carpentry is priced on top.
- Paint grade and coats
- A higher-grade paint or an extra finish coat costs more up front.
- Trim colors and details
- Shutters, a separate trim color and detailed trim work take more brush time.
Popcorn ceiling removal
Popcorn ceiling removal scrapes the bumpy texture off a ceiling, and the ceiling is usually smoothed and painted afterward. There is no Georgia range for it yet.

What moves the price
- Testing first
- Some older popcorn ceilings contain asbestos, so ask whether the ceiling should be tested before work starts and what the plan would be if the test finds it.
- Painted texture
- Texture that has been painted over often does not soften with water, so it takes longer to scrape.
- Smoothing and paint
- After scraping, ceilings often need a skim coat of joint compound, sanding and paint, and a quote may or may not include those steps.
- Protecting the room
- Scraping is messy, so floors and walls get covered and the room is usually emptied, which adds setup time.
Cabinet painting
Cabinet painting refinishes kitchen or bathroom cabinets in place, usually with the doors and drawer fronts taken off to be sprayed. There is no Georgia range for it yet.

What moves the price
- Doors and drawer fronts
- Each piece is cleaned, sanded, primed and painted, so a kitchen with more doors and drawers takes longer.
- Sprayed or brushed
- A sprayed finish usually looks smoother, and setting up to spray costs more than brushing in place.
- Wood or laminate
- Laminate and other slick fronts need a special primer and may not hold paint well, so ask whether yours are a good fit for painting.
- New hardware
- Filling old hardware holes and drilling for new pulls adds work.
Deck and fence staining
Deck and fence staining cleans the wood and coats it with a stain or sealer to protect it from sun and water. There is no Georgia range for it yet.

What moves the price
- Cleaning and stripping
- Wood is usually washed first, and stripping old peeling stain takes much longer than cleaning bare wood.
- Stain type
- Clear sealers, semi-transparent stains and solid stains are priced differently, and some need more coats than others.
- Railings and spindles
- Railings, spindles and lattice take far more brush time than flat boards.
- Both sides of a fence
- Staining the neighbor's side of a fence adds surface, and it takes access to their yard.
What a good pressure washing or painting quote should list
Two quotes for the same house can look far apart until you see what each one covers. Ask each company to put these in writing:
- Exactly which surfaces the price covers, such as the siding, the driveway, the roof or the trim
- Whether the method is high-pressure washing or a low-pressure soft wash, and which cleaning solutions are used
- Whether covering and rinsing plants, and cleaning up afterward, are included
- For painting, which paint, how many coats and whether primer is included
- What preparation is included, such as scraping, sanding, patching and caulking
- Whether the company carries liability insurance, and what happens if something is damaged
- What any guarantee covers, and for how long
Where these numbers come from
We collect these prices with our own crawler, which reads the public websites of Georgia painting and pressure washing companies and follows each site's robots.txt rules. It has read 192 of their websites so far. Each range is the middle half of the prices and cost guides those businesses publish, collected November 2026. A price list is what a business says it charges; a cost guide is a business's own estimate of what the job usually runs in Georgia. We check every figure against the page it came from, leave out national averages and prices from other states, and count a business only once, even if it has several websites. We never name the businesses behind a range. This page is written and published by Georgia SEO Company.
