Wellington properties get quoted with a measuring wheel, not a glance. A single lot might hold a 3-car driveway, a wraparound walkway, a pool deck, several hundred feet of paddock fencing, and a barn or storage building at the back; and every one of those is a different material with a different tolerance for pressure.
Tallying surfaces on a big lot
The scope visit records real square footage and real materials: concrete drives and walks that handle the standard 2,500–3,500 PSI, paver sections needing moderated technique, and the long runs of painted board fencing, vinyl rail, and barn siding that belong exclusively to soft washing under 500 PSI. Forcing water into painted wood peels finish and pushes moisture into the grain, which is a big part of how pressure washing damages property when it goes wrong; so the fence line is the first thing sorted into the gentle column.
Algae likes the same shade the horses do
Trees and outbuildings cast the shade where green film establishes first: north walls, fence stretches under canopy, the damp side of a barn. Those zones get a treatment that kills growth at the root before rinsing, with the full surface-by-surface method list on the pressure washing page. Subdivision homes in Wellington’s HOA neighborhoods carry the same logic at smaller scale, with association appearance standards folded into the scheduling.
An annual rhythm that respects the acreage
Most large-lot owners land on hardscape washing every 6–12 months and fence-line soft washing on a similar or slightly longer cycle, grouping everything into 1 coordinated visit so the property ages evenly instead of patchily.
The town-wide exterior picture is on the Wellington hub, and the same large-lot logic applies next door for pressure washing in Royal Palm Beach.
Across the South Florida market, pressure washing generally runs $0.15-$0.40 per square foot for driveways and hardscape, with most single-home visits landing between $150 and $400. What pressure washing costs covers what moves the number; every Wellington scope is priced to the property, not an average.
