Brooklyn's price band
Brooklyn is pricier than 97% of the 195 US metros we price for pressure washing work.
Most Brooklyn homeowners pay $460 to have a 2,000 sq ft house washed, inside a normal range of $290–$810. Pressure washing a 2-car driveway costs $140–$430, a wood deck $140–$530, and a 100-ft privacy fence $170–$480. Pros charge about $55–$160 an hour.
Brooklyn prices follow New York City's: Angi's 2026 city data puts the average house wash at $388, most jobs $262–$527, and pros' rates at $65–$200 an hour. Taller homes may need a lift or bucket truck, which raises the price. Angi's average covers homes of every size; the prices on this page are for a 2,000 sq ft house unless a line says otherwise.
Many pros price by the job, not the hour, after a look at the house or photos. Expect a minimum charge of about $110–$260 for small jobs, and ask whether the price covers plants, outlets and windows being protected before the wash.

Pressure washing prices across Brooklyn
Where the house sits changes the job. Tight lots and paid parking in Downtown Brooklyn & Park Slope slow a crew down; bigger homes in areas like South & East Brooklyn cost more in total but less per square foot.
Williamsburg & Greenpoint
- House wash
- $410–$710 per job
- Driveway wash
- $130–$470 / driveway wash
A mix of old and new homes. Painted or older siding should get a gentle soft wash, not high pressure.
Bushwick & Bed-Stuy
- House wash
- $410–$710 per job
- Driveway wash
- $130–$470 / driveway wash
Prices run near the city typical. Porches, railings and detail trim take longer by hand, so ask for a line-by-line quote.
Downtown Brooklyn & Park Slope
- House wash
- $460–$780 per job
- Driveway wash
- $140–$520 / driveway wash
The top of the city range. Street parking, close neighbors and shared walls slow the crew down.
South & East Brooklyn
- House wash
- $320–$640 per job
- Driveway wash
- $120–$430 / driveway wash
Cheaper per job than the core in most cases. Most crews use your outdoor water; ask if they bring their own tank.
Real-world pressure washing costs in Brooklyn
Here's what common pressure washing jobs cost in Brooklyn in 2026, labor and cleaning solution included.
Single-story house, siding and trim
The most common job: a soft wash of the walls, eaves and trim of a one-story home up to about 1,500 sq ft, for $200–$530. If your home is small and close to clean, expect a quote near the $110–$260 minimum.
Two-story house plus the driveway
A two-story wash ($400–$1,050) plus a 2-car driveway ($140–$430) adds up to $540–$1,480. A full exterior package (house, driveway and walks) runs $620–$1,300, with one trip and one minimum charge.
Driveway, front walk and an oil stain
Driveway ($140–$430), front walk ($55–$110) and one oil or rust spot treated ($25–$160) come to $220–$700. Sealing afterward is extra, at $0.44–$2.20 a sq ft.
Wood deck washed and re-sealed
A wash alone is $140–$530. Washing and then staining or sealing about 300 sq ft runs $610–$1,600, because the stain and the extra labor cost more than the wash.
Roof soft wash plus gutter brightening
A roof soft wash ($390–$1,050) removes the black streaks of algae; gutter brightening ($110–$350) takes the gray stripes off the outside of the gutters. Together: $500–$1,400.
How much does pressure washing cost in Brooklyn?
$290–$810 for a 2,000 sq ft house, and $460 is what most Brooklyn homeowners pay. Size sets the number: a single-story home runs $200–$530, a two-story $400–$1,050, and three stories or 4,000+ sq ft $620–$1,600.
Add-ons are where bills grow: a wood deck $140–$530, a 100-ft fence $170–$480, gutter brightening $110–$350, and a roof soft wash $390–$1,050. Re-checked against 65 sources, November 2026.

| Line on the quote | Low | Typical | High |
|---|---|---|---|
| House wash, single story | $200 | $340 | $530 |
| House wash, about 2,000 sq ft | $290 | $460 | $810 |
| House wash, two stories | $400 | $620 | $1,050 |

| Fence, 100 linear ft | $170 | $280 | $480 |
| Roof soft wash | $390 | $680 | $1,050 |
The $170 minimum charge is the line to watch. A small driveway or a single patio can come in at the minimum on its own, so add the walk ($55–$110) or patio ($110–$430) while the crew is there.
What moves a pressure washing quote in Brooklyn:
- Size and stories: a single-story home runs $200–$530; three stories or 4,000+ sq ft $620–$1,600.
- Siding type: brick or stucco runs $310–$750 for 2,000 sq ft, against $290–$810 for a typical house.
- How dirty it is: heavy mildew, algae or rust stains need more solution and dwell time; a stain spot alone is $25–$160.
- Access: steep slopes, tight side yards and no nearby spigot add time; labor runs $55–$160 an hour.
- Add-ons: driveway $140–$430, deck $140–$530, fence $170–$480, roof $390–$1,050.
Ask every Brooklyn company the same four things: the method for each surface, what's included (eaves, gutters, windows), how they protect plants and outlets, and what happens if a stain won't come out. Compare those, not just the headline. Get a quote for your house wash →
Pressure washing cost in Brooklyn by house size
A single-story home up to about 1,500 sq ft is $200–$530, a 2,000 sq ft house $290–$810, a two-story of 2,500–3,000 sq ft $400–$1,050, and three stories or 4,000+ sq ft $620–$1,600 in Brooklyn.
Worked example: a two-story home at $620 plus a 2-car driveway at $250 and a front walk at $85 comes to $955 at typical Brooklyn prices. Ask for a full exterior package price too (about $910 typical) and pick the lower total.
Set-up, travel and the minimum charge cost about the same for any job, which is why a small one-story home costs more per square foot than a big one. Per square foot of home, a house wash runs about $0.14–$0.41.
Brooklyn pressure washing jobs compared
| Job type | Cost | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| House soft wash (low pressure plus cleaning solution) | $290–$810 per job | Vinyl, fiber cement, stucco, painted wood and brick walls |
| Driveway and concrete pressure wash | $140–$430 per job | Concrete driveways, walks and patios with dirt, mildew or tire marks |
| Roof soft wash | $390–$1,050 per job | Black algae streaks and moss on asphalt shingle or tile roofs |
| Deck or fence wash | $140–$530 per job | Gray or green wood before staining, or just to brighten it |
| Wash and seal (deck) | $610–$1,600 per job | Wood decks that are dry, faded or due for new stain |
| Full exterior package | $620–$1,300 per job | House, driveway and walks done in one visit |
Per-square-foot price vs the full bill in Brooklyn
Some companies quote by the square foot of the home: $0.14–$0.41 a sq ft in Brooklyn, or $280–$820 for a 2,000 sq ft house, in line with the whole-house price of $290–$810. The rate alone hides the extras, though: second stories, heavy mildew and add-ons like the driveway ($140–$430) are where quotes differ.
Concrete works the same way: $0.17–$0.53 a sq ft is $85–$270 for 500 sq ft, but many companies have a minimum of about $110–$260. Small areas cost the minimum, not the per-foot math.
What's included in a Brooklyn pressure washing quote (and what costs extra)
A standard house wash covers the siding, trim, eaves and soffits, front door and garage door, with plants and outlets protected and everything rinsed. It usually leaves out:
- The driveway and walks: $140–$430 for a 2-car driveway, plus $55–$110 for the walk
- Gutter face brightening: $110–$350 to take the gray stripes off the outside of the gutters
- Stain treatment: $25–$160 per oil, rust or clay spot on concrete
- The roof: a separate soft wash at $390–$1,050
Ask whether windows get a rinse only or a proper clean, and get any damage policy and the company's insurance in writing.
Size and number of stories
Bigger homes take longer, and second and third stories need taller ladders or longer wands. A single-story home runs $200–$530, a two-story $400–$1,050.
Siding material
A brick or stucco house of 2,000 sq ft runs $310–$750. Painted wood needs a gentle soft wash, because high pressure can make paint crack and flake.
Mildew, algae and stains
Green or black growth on shaded walls needs a cleaning solution and time to work. Oil, rust or clay stains on concrete cost $25–$160 a spot to treat.
Method: soft wash or pressure wash
Soft washing uses low pressure and a cleaning solution, at about $0.14–$0.41 a sq ft of home. High pressure is for concrete and brick paving, at about $0.17–$0.53 a sq ft of surface.
Access and water
Steep yards, tight side gates, plants close to the wall and no outdoor spigot all slow a crew down. Labor runs about $55–$160 an hour.
Bundling and minimums
Small jobs hit a minimum of about $110–$260. A full exterior package (house, driveway and walks) runs $620–$1,300: one visit, one trip charge and one minimum.
Local labor
Brooklyn janitors and cleaners earn a median of about $20.60 an hour (BLS, May 2025), against $17.71 nationally. Our prices follow local cleaner pay, so the typical Brooklyn job is $460, above the $400 national typical.
- Bundle surfaces in one visit.House, driveway and walks together run $620–$1,300. Booked one at a time you pay a trip and a minimum ($110–$260) for each.
- Send photos for a quote.Many companies quote from photos and the home's size. Get two or three quotes for the same list of surfaces so you can compare like with like.
- Book outside the busy months.Demand is higher in spring and summer, which can mean longer waits and higher prices. Ask about fall dates.
- Skip the roof if it isn't stained.A roof soft wash is a separate $390–$1,050 job. If there are no dark streaks or moss, you may not need it this year.
- Wash before you paint or stain, not twice.If you plan to stain a deck, book the wash and stain together ($610–$1,600) instead of a $140–$530 wash now and another one later.
- Do the small flat jobs yourself.A rented machine costs about $50–$175 a day. Driveways and patios are fair DIY jobs; leave siding, second stories and roofs to a pro.
Get these in writing from any Brooklyn company before you pay a deposit:
- Each surface listed: walls, eaves, trim, driveway, walks, deck, fence, roof
- The method for each one (soft wash or pressure wash) and the cleaning solution
- How plants, outlets, lights and windows are protected
- Whether gutters (outside face) and windows are included or extra
- Stain treatment: what's included and what's extra per spot
- Where the wash water goes (lawn, not the storm drain)
- Proof of liability insurance, and the damage policy
- The total price, the minimum charge and what happens if it rains
How much does it cost to pressure wash a house in Brooklyn?
$290–$810 for a 2,000 sq ft, one- or two-story house, with $460 typical. A single-story home runs $200–$530, and a two-story of 2,500–3,000 sq ft $400–$1,050.
How much does it cost to pressure wash a driveway in Brooklyn?
$140–$430 for a standard 2-car driveway, typically $250. A front walk adds $55–$110, and each oil or rust spot $25–$160.
What do Brooklyn pressure washers charge per square foot?
About $0.14–$0.41 a sq ft of home for a house wash and $0.17–$0.53 a sq ft for concrete. Many companies have a minimum of about $110–$260.
How much does roof cleaning cost in Brooklyn?
$390–$1,050 to soft wash an asphalt shingle roof of about 1,500–2,000 sq ft. A moss or lichen treatment adds $110–$260.
How much does it cost to pressure wash a deck in Brooklyn?
$140–$530 to wash a 300–500 sq ft wood deck. Washing and staining or sealing about 300 sq ft runs $610–$1,600.
How much does fence washing cost in Brooklyn?
$170–$480 for 100 linear ft of 6-ft privacy fence, one side. Both sides, or stained wood that needs care, cost more.
Is soft washing better than pressure washing for siding?
For most siding, yes. Soft washing uses low pressure and a cleaning solution that kills mildew and algae. High pressure can force water behind vinyl and make paint crack and flake.
How often should I have my house washed in Brooklyn?
Every one to two years for most homes, sooner on shaded walls that grow mildew or algae. Driveways and walks are often washed once a year.
Is it cheaper to rent a pressure washer in Brooklyn?
A rented machine costs about $50–$175 a day, so a driveway or patio is cheaper to do yourself. For siding, second stories and roofs, a pro with soft-wash gear is safer and usually worth the $460.
Can pressure washing water go down the storm drain in Brooklyn?
Often not. Many cities ban dirty wash water from storm drains, because many storm drains carry water to creeks, rivers or the ocean without treatment. San Diego's rule covers homeowners as well as contractors. A good crew blocks drains and sends water onto grass or planted ground that can soak it up.
