Washing the side of a long white ranch house from the paved driveway, the hose running back to the rig at the curb

House washing.

Siding, brick and trim washed hot and at low pressure, so the dirt and the green come off and the house does not take the beating.

That green film is alive.

The green on siding is not dirt. It is mold and algae, and it is alive. It starts on the shady side of the house, feeds on the damp, and it grows back from whatever gets left behind. Dirt rinses off. Mold has to be treated, or you are washing the same wall again next spring.

So a house wash here is hot water and the right cleaner, put on low and slow. The treatment kills what is growing, the hot water carries it off, and the finish underneath is left alone. One visit covers the whole outside of the house:

  • Vinyl, brick, stone and painted siding
  • Trim, shutters and the outside of the gutters
  • A rinse over the porch and walkway before we pack up

Low pressure, on purpose.

Vinyl is not built to take a pressure washer up close. Blasting forces water up behind the panels and can scar the finish for good. We keep the pressure down and let the hot water and the cleaner do the work, from the foundation to the roof line.

We bring our own water, so the job never leans on your well. If your house has a story and a half nobody can reach, that is fine. Heights are what we are known for.

The same wall, one visit apart.

After. Same wall, washed hot and rinsed clean.

Brick washes the same way.

Brick and stone hold water, so high pressure drives the stain deeper and chews at the mortar. Low pressure with the right cleaner pulls the growth out of the pores and rinses away clean, and the brick keeps its face.

Reviews

Questions we get asked.

Will the pressure hurt my siding?

We do not put high pressure on siding. It gets a hot, low pressure wash that lifts the film off the surface instead of forcing water in behind it. Brick and trim wash the same way.

Do you need to use my water?

No. We bring our own water, 600 gallons of it on the rig, and we set up without touching your spigot.

What is the green film on the shaded side of the house?

It is alive. Algae and mildew take hold where the wall stays damp and they keep spreading until something takes them off. A wash kills it rather than just rinsing it back a season.

How do I get a price for my house?
