How We Do House Washing, Step by Step

When we arrive at your home, we begin with a walk around the perimeter to inspect your siding, trim, and soffits. We check the surface materials, look for visible algae or mold, and note any pre-existing exterior conditions. Before starting work, we mask outdoor electrical fixtures, check that all windows and doors are tightly closed, and thoroughly soak surrounding plants and landscaping with clean water to protect them.

We use dedicated low-pressure soft-wash equipment rather than high-pressure sprayers. High pressure can force water behind siding boards or strip delicate trim, so we rely on low pressure combined with targeted cleaning solutions. We apply the mixture directly to your siding, soffits, and trim, allowing it to penetrate and break down green growth, mildew, and accumulated dirt.

Once the cleaning solution has lifted the surface staining, we rinse the entire exterior using gentle water pressure. We work systematically from the soffits down to the foundation, flushing away all loosened debris and solution residue. During and after the rinse, we water down nearby shrubs and flowerbeds again to keep your plants safe.

Most house washing jobs take a few hours depending on the size of the house, whether it is one or two stories, and the level of staining present. When we finish, your siding and trim are left clear of green algae and grime without any water trapped behind your boards. If you are considering cleaning your home's exterior, contact us to discuss your property and request a service.
