Professional Exterior House Washing

is available for homes made of any material; vinyl, brick, stucco, and wood just to name a few. Each material requires a different cleaning process. For example, vinyl and stucco require very low pressure and the appropriate cleaners (biocide). High pressure can cause serious damage to surfaces such as these. Below we have a short description of how our  Safely clean your home.

Stain Diagnosis

 all of our cleaning processes start with a stain diagnosis.  From this point, our technicians can effectively and efficiently treat the stains.  This allows our technicians to decide the proper process.

Mechanical Cleaning

this is as simple as it gets manpower and water.  Sometimes good old elbow grease is the most effective tool (rust stains).

Chemical Cleaning

with this process, we use our proprietary mix to effectively treat the surface to be cleaned.

Pressure Washing

this is what most guys do no matter the situation which provides for unreliable results.  This process is highly effective but only if used properly.

Combination Pressure Cleaning and Softwashing

this is our most used process where we combine the above-described process which produces excellent cleaning results.

Types of surfaces we pressure wash

Vinyl siding & Stucco

are two of the most delicate materials we clean. Safely doing so requires a process which professionals refer to as “Softwashing.” This process utilizes cold water and very specific cleaning agents that do all the work rather than pressure washing. These detergents are applied at 600-800 psi. As you can see in the video below this is low enough that you can easily put your hand in front of it without causing harm to you, much less anything else. Our cleaning detergents have surfactants and rinse aides just like your dishwasher soaps. This helps your windows clean up nicely along with your siding. Algaecide is another important ingredient that helps to slow the return of the nasty green algae that you are probably, currently plagued with.

Brick is obviously a much harder and durable material than siding. For this reason, when needed, we can use higher pressure and Hot water (Steam Cleaning). Dirt and algae collect here just like anywhere else. The only difference with brick is it being more porous, thus allowing algae to go deeper than just the surface. Just like siding we would first apply a cleaning agent and let dwell. The difference is being able to rinse with more pressure and Hot water. Like cleaning anything at home, hot water does a much better job at removing all contaminants.

Concrete Driveways Sidewalks Patios

Wood Clapboard and Hardy board can be a delicate surface depending on the condition of the wood and the paint. Majority of the time one of the two is not is good condition, therefore we always treat these structures just as vinyl or stucco siding. We take a very low-pressure approach for safe, damage-free cleaning. Please refer to “Vinyl Siding & Stucco” for details.

Prevention this is the final process we can offer preventive suggestions such as cutting back trees etc…  They are many factors (microclimates) which contribute to different reactions and results at each property.

GUTTER AND DOWNSPOUT CLEANING

We take gutter cleaning one step further than most. Here is what you should expect from professional gutter cleaning:

• Removal of all debris from gutters
• All debris removed from your property
• High volume water flush through downspouts ensures a free-flowing system.
• Our ladders have standoffs. These hold our ladders off of your gutters, preventing damage.
• Removal of all roof debris (upon request)
• Before and after pictures (upon request)

Our goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing that your gutters are 100% clear and free-flowing. We also promise to leave your landscaping as nice or better than when we arrived.
