Sanitization Benefits – High-temperature hot pressure washing kills bacteria, mold, mildew, and algae on Edmonton concrete surfaces, providing not just cleaning but sanitization.
Â
Faster Cleaning Process – Hot water accelerates the breakdown of contaminants, allowing our Edmonton team to clean concrete surfaces more quickly and efficiently than cold water pressure washing.
Better Results on Tough Stains – Oil stains, tire marks, grease buildup, and industrial contaminants respond dramatically better to hot pressure washing in Edmonton’s climate.
Environmentally Responsible – Hot water’s superior cleaning power often requires fewer chemical cleaning agents, making hot pressure washing a more environmentally friendly option for Edmonton properties.

The Professional Hot Pressure Washing Process
Our systematic approach ensures superior concrete cleaning results for your Edmonton property:
Step 1: Surface Assessment and Preparation
We thoroughly inspect your Edmonton concrete surfaces, identifying stain types, concrete condition, and any areas requiring special attention. We protect landscaping, adjacent structures, and sensitive areas before beginning hot pressure washing.
Step 2: Pre-Treatment Application
For heavily soiled areas or specific stain types, we apply specialized pre-treatment solutions that enhance hot pressure washing effectiveness and ensure complete contaminant removal from your Edmonton concrete.
Step 3: Hot Pressure Washing Cleaning
Using professional-grade hot water pressure washing equipment calibrated to appropriate PSI levels for your concrete type, we systematically clean all surfaces. Our experienced technicians adjust pressure, temperature, and techniques to maximize cleaning while protecting concrete integrity.
Step 4: Spot Treatment for Stubborn Stains

We complete a thorough final rinse, removing all cleaning agents and dissolved contaminants. Our quality control inspection ensures every area of your Edmonton concrete meets our high cleaning standards.
Step 6: Optional Sealing Recommendations
After hot pressure washing, we can assess whether your Edmonton concrete would benefit from protective sealing to maintain cleanliness longer and protect against future staining.
Hot Pressure Washing vs. Cold Water Pressure Washing
Understanding the difference helps Edmonton property owners choose the right concrete cleaning approach:
Hot Pressure Washing – Uses heated water (typically 180-200°F) combined with high pressure to break down oils, grease, organic materials, and stubborn contaminants. Ideal for heavy-duty cleaning, oil stain removal, sanitization needs, and preparing surfaces for coatings in Edmonton.
Cold Water Pressure Washing – Uses ambient temperature water with high pressure to remove loose dirt, debris, and light surface contaminants. Suitable for routine maintenance cleaning and general concrete washing in Edmonton.
For most concrete cleaning applications in Edmonton, hot pressure washing delivers dramatically superior results, especially for driveways, garage floors, commercial areas, and any surfaces with oil or grease contamination.
Preparing Concrete for Coating Applications
Hot pressure washing is an essential first step before applying protective coating systems to Edmonton concrete:
Before Epoxy Flooring Installation – Epoxy flooring systems require absolutely clean concrete for proper adhesion. Hot pressure washing removes oils, contaminants, and residues that would prevent proper epoxy bonding.
Before Polished Concrete – Concrete grinding and polishing achieves best results when starting with thoroughly cleaned concrete free from surface contaminants.
Before Control Joint Filling – Control joints filling requires clean joint surfaces for optimal adhesion and performance.
Before Parkade Coatings – Parkade coating systems in Edmonton underground parking structures demand pristine concrete preparation, making hot pressure washing essential.
Before Balcony Coatings – Balcony coating applications require clean, contaminant-free concrete surfaces for proper waterproofing and coating adhesion.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hot Pressure Washing in Edmonton
What is hot pressure concrete washing?
Hot pressure concrete washing uses specialized equipment that heats water to temperatures typically ranging from 180-200°F while delivering high-pressure water streams (2000-4000 PSI) to concrete surfaces. The combination of heat and pressure, along with specialized cleaning agents, provides superior cleaning compared to cold water methods. Hot water breaks down oils, grease, and organic contaminants at the molecular level, making it exceptionally effective for deep cleaning Edmonton concrete surfaces.
How does hot pressure washing differ from regular pressure washing?
Regular (cold water) pressure washing uses ambient temperature water with high pressure to remove loose dirt and debris. Hot pressure washing adds the crucial element of heated water, which dramatically improves cleaning effectiveness by breaking down oils, grease, tire marks, and organic materials that cold water cannot effectively remove. For most Edmonton concrete cleaning applications, hot pressure washing delivers significantly superior results.
Is hot pressure washing safe for all types of concrete?
Yes, when performed by experienced professionals using proper techniques and equipment settings. Our Edmonton team adjusts water pressure, temperature, and nozzle distance based on your specific concrete type, age, and condition. We protect concrete integrity while achieving thorough cleaning results. Newer, weaker concrete or decorative concrete may require lower pressure settings, which our experienced technicians understand and implement.
Can hot pressure washing remove oil stains from Edmonton driveways?
Absolutely! Hot pressure washing is exceptionally effective at removing oil stains, transmission fluid, grease, and automotive fluids from Edmonton concrete driveways and garage floors. The heated water breaks down petroleum-based products far more effectively than cold water, often removing stains that have been present for months or years. For best results, we combine hot pressure washing with specialized degreasing agents formulated for Edmonton’s climate.
How often should I have my concrete hot pressure washed in Edmonton?
For residential Edmonton properties, annual hot pressure washing maintains optimal concrete appearance and longevity. Commercial properties with high traffic may benefit from seasonal or quarterly cleaning. Factors affecting frequency include traffic levels, exposure to contaminants, proximity to trees (organic debris), and aesthetic standards. Our team can recommend an appropriate maintenance schedule for your specific Edmonton property.
Will hot pressure washing damage my landscaping?
Professional hot pressure washing includes careful protection of landscaping, plants, and grass. We pre-wet vegetation, use appropriate cleaning agents, and direct runoff away from sensitive plants. Our experienced Edmonton team takes all necessary precautions to protect your landscaping while thoroughly cleaning concrete surfaces.
Can you remove paint from concrete with hot pressure washing?
Hot pressure washing can effectively remove some types of paint from Edmonton concrete, particularly latex-based paints and loose, failing paint. Oil-based paints or well-adhered coatings may require additional treatments or specialized paint removal techniques. We assess your specific situation and recommend the most effective approach for paint removal from your Edmonton concrete.
How long does hot pressure washing take?
Project duration varies based on surface area, concrete condition, contamination level, and accessibility. A typical residential Edmonton driveway takes 2-4 hours including preparation and cleanup. Larger commercial hot pressure washing projects require proportionally more time. We provide accurate time estimates during your free consultation.
When is the best time for hot pressure washing in Edmonton?
Spring and fall are ideal seasons for hot pressure washing in Edmonton. Spring cleaning removes winter salt, sand, and accumulated debris. Fall preparation protects concrete before winter. However, hot pressure washing can be performed anytime temperatures remain above freezing and weather permits. We accommodate emergency cleaning needs and coordinate with your Edmonton project schedules year-round.
Do you use environmentally safe cleaning products?
Yes, STC Coatings uses eco-friendly, biodegradable cleaning agents that are safe for Edmonton’s environment, landscaping, and waterways. We properly manage runoff, comply with environmental regulations, and prioritize sustainable practices in all hot pressure washing services. Our cleaning solutions are effective yet environmentally responsible for Edmonton properties.
What should I do to prepare for hot pressure washing?
Remove vehicles, furniture, planters, and moveable items from areas to be cleaned. Ensure we have water access and electrical outlets if needed. Close windows and doors near work areas. Our Edmonton team provides specific preparation instructions when scheduling your hot pressure washing service to ensure efficient, thorough cleaning.
How much does hot pressure washing cost in Edmonton?
Hot pressure washing costs in Edmonton typically range from $0.15-0.40 per square foot for residential services, with commercial and industrial pricing based on square footage, contamination severity, accessibility, and additional services required. Most residential driveways cost $150-400 for professional hot pressure washing. Contact us at (825) 474-1717 for accurate pricing for your specific Edmonton hot pressure washing project.
