Question 2

Are you licensed and insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sunrise Property Solutions is fully licensed and insured in the state of Delaware. We carry general liability insurance on every job, protecting your property and giving you peace of mind.

Question 3

How do I get a quote?

Accepted Answer

For power washing services, you can use our Instant Quote Calculator on the website to get an estimate in under 60 seconds. For landscaping and rock resin installs, pricing depends on the scope of the project, so we schedule a free on-site visit and provide a written quote within 24–48 hours.

Question 4

How do I pay?

Accepted Answer

We accept cash, check, and all major credit cards. Payment is due upon completion of the job unless otherwise arranged in advance.

Question 5

Do you offer any discounts?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we offer bundle discounts when you combine multiple services (e.g., house washing + driveway cleaning). We also run seasonal promotions, including our current 10% off rock resin installs offer. Ask about current promotions when you call.

Question 6

What's the difference between pressure washing and soft washing?

Accepted Answer

Pressure washing uses high-pressure water to blast away surface dirt — best for hard surfaces like concrete and brick. Soft washing uses lower pressure combined with biodegradable cleaning solutions to safely clean delicate surfaces like vinyl siding, stucco, and roofs. We use the right method for each surface to avoid damage.

Question 7

Will pressure washing damage my siding?

Accepted Answer

Not when done correctly. We use soft washing techniques on all siding — vinyl, wood, stucco, and fiber cement — to safely remove dirt, algae, and mildew without damaging the surface. High-pressure washing on siding can force water behind panels and cause damage, which is why we never do it.

Question 8

How often should I have my house washed?

Accepted Answer

For most Sussex County homes, once a year is ideal. Coastal Delaware's humidity and salt air accelerate algae and mildew growth, especially on north-facing and shaded surfaces. Annual washing prevents buildup from becoming permanent staining.

Question 9

Can you clean my roof?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer soft wash roof cleaning that safely removes black streaks (Gloeocapsa magma algae), moss, and lichen without voiding your roof warranty. High-pressure washing on shingles can strip granules and void warranties — we never do it.

Question 10

How long does pressure washing take?

Accepted Answer

A typical house washing takes 2–4 hours depending on home size. Driveway and concrete cleaning is usually 1–2 hours. We'll give you a time estimate when we confirm your appointment.

Question 11

Do I need to be home during the service?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily. As long as we have access to an outdoor water spigot and the areas to be cleaned, you don't need to be present. We'll communicate before and after the job to confirm everything was completed to your satisfaction.

Question 12

What is the minimum charge for power washing?

Accepted Answer

Our minimum charge for power washing services is $215. For window cleaning, the minimum is $150. These minimums ensure we can cover travel, setup, and the time required for even small jobs.

Question 13

What landscaping services do you offer?

Accepted Answer

We specialize in landscape bed work: mulch installs, gravel installs, river rock and decorative stone installs, landscape bed cleanup and refresh, landscape bed renovation, and new landscape bed design and installation. We focus on the beds and borders that frame your home — the elements that have the biggest impact on curb appeal.

Question 14

How much does mulch installation cost?

Accepted Answer

Mulch pricing depends on the square footage of your beds, the depth of mulch needed, and whether old mulch or debris needs to be removed first. We provide free on-site quotes for all landscaping work — pricing varies too much by project to give accurate numbers without seeing the beds in person.

Question 15

What type of mulch do you use?

Accepted Answer

We use premium hardwood mulch in natural brown, black, or red, depending on your preference. We can also source specialty mulches on request. We recommend 2–3 inches of fresh mulch for optimal weed suppression and moisture retention.

Question 16

Is gravel or mulch better for my landscape beds?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your goals. Mulch is warmer, better for plant health, and gives a traditional look — but needs replacing every 1–2 years. Gravel and decorative stone are permanent, require no replacement, and hold up better in coastal Delaware's humidity and salt air. We'll discuss the pros and cons during your free site visit.

Question 17

Do you install landscape fabric?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we install quality landscape fabric beneath all gravel, river rock, and decorative stone installations to prevent weeds and keep stones from mixing with the soil. For mulch beds, we discuss fabric options with you, as it can sometimes impede plant growth.

Question 18

Can you design new landscape beds from scratch?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We design and install brand-new landscape beds, including layout planning, edging installation, soil preparation, and material installation. We'll work with you to create a design that complements your home's architecture and fits your budget.

Question 19

What is rock resin?

Accepted Answer

Rock resin (also called resin-bound stone) is a surface finish made by mixing natural aggregate stones with a clear, UV-stable polyurethane resin. The mixture is hand-troweled onto a prepared base to create a seamless, smooth, and fully permeable surface. It's one of the most durable and attractive driveway and patio surfaces available.

Question 20

How long does a rock resin surface last?

Accepted Answer

A properly installed rock resin surface typically lasts 15–25 years with minimal maintenance. The UV-stable resin resists fading, and the natural stone aggregate stays vibrant. Coastal Delaware's salt air and humidity do not affect the resin bond.

Question 21

Can rock resin be applied over my existing concrete?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, yes. If the existing concrete is structurally sound and free of major cracks or heaving, we can apply rock resin directly over it. This saves the cost of demolition and makes the project faster. We assess every surface during our free on-site visit.

Question 22

Is rock resin slippery when wet?

Accepted Answer

No — the textured stone aggregate surface provides excellent grip even when wet. Rock resin is actually safer than smooth concrete or polished stone in wet conditions, which makes it ideal for pool surrounds, front walkways, and driveways.

Question 23

How do I maintain a rock resin surface?

Accepted Answer

Rock resin is very low maintenance. Occasional sweeping and a rinse with a garden hose is all that's needed for routine upkeep. For deep cleaning, a light pressure wash restores the surface to like-new condition. No sealing or recoating is required.

Question 24

How much does rock resin installation cost?

Accepted Answer

Rock resin pricing depends on the area size, surface preparation required, and stone aggregate selected. Because every project is different, we provide free on-site quotes. We'll come out, assess your surface, and give you a detailed written quote within 24–48 hours.

Question 25

Is there a discount available for rock resin?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we're currently offering 10% off all rock resin installs for new bookings. Mention this offer when you call or submit your quote request online.
