Pressure washing for Lakeland homes
Lakeland lists pressure-washing flows among illicit discharges into its storm drains, which lead to lakes, ponds and wetlands. Gone Stumpin offers residential pressure washing and soft washing for driveways, siding, roofs, pool cages, fences and decks. The owner reviews the property and writes the estimate before work starts.

How the job goes
Tell us about the job
Send the project address, what needs done and what you want the property ready for.
The owner sees it in person
He looks at what is actually there and puts the estimate in writing before work starts.
You get an arrival time
Once you say yes, the job goes on the schedule with a set arrival time.
The owner runs the job
The person who wrote your estimate is on site for the work.
Plan the wash around the surfaces and drainage
Lakeland’s lakes and stormwater system are part of the planning conversation. The job request should say what needs cleaning and where it is.
Identify each surface
Tell us if you want the driveway washed, siding cleaned, a roof soft washed or a pool enclosure addressed. Fences and decks can be included in the request too. A list of surfaces describes the work more clearly than asking for everything outside to be cleaned, and gives the owner something specific to inspect.
Discuss where the water goes
The city describes a stormwater system with about 348 miles of pipe and 11,776 inlets, leading to lakes, ponds and wetlands. Ask about the wash-water plan for your property before agreeing to the job. This page does not promise that every surface drains the same way or that one handling method suits every address.
Check restrictions for the proposed work
Lakeland identifies pressure-washing discharges as a stormwater concern and prohibits wasteful water use. Water restrictions can also change. Use current city guidance when planning the wash, rather than treating an old drought notice as a permanent rule. Agree on the surfaces and scope in the owner’s written estimate.

Pressure washing questions in Lakeland
Who do I call about storm drain pollution in Lakeland?
The city Pollution Hotline at 863-834-3300, option 3.
Does a Lakeland storm drain send wash water to a treatment plant?
The city says its storm drains lead to lakes, ponds, wetlands and other waterways. It also names pressure-washing processes among illicit discharges. That is why the wash-water question belongs in planning the work, even when a property is not directly beside a lake. Give the address and describe the surface; do not assume a nearby inlet makes discharge acceptable.
Can I include a Lakeland roof and pool cage in the same request?
Yes. Both are among the residential surfaces offered, along with driveways, siding, fences and decks. Name them separately so the estimate reflects the work you want. Roofs get a low-pressure soft wash. The owner looks at the job, puts the estimate in writing and stays on site for the work. Extra surfaces should be agreed as a scope change rather than assumed to be included.
Do you take commercial jobs in Lakeland?
No. Pressure washing is for homes. Property managers can book single-family homes and small rentals.
Do you pressure wash roofs?
Roofs get a soft wash, which uses low pressure.
