Frequently Asked Questions

Most people get their homes washed once per year but this could vary based on a few factors. If you prefer to keep your house looking fresh all year long then yearly is a good choice. We also recommend once per year! If you are concerned about algae, mold and bacteria in the air, getting your siding cleaned yearly is the best option.

In some cases you can wait 2 years before having your siding cleaned. It really depends on how much sunlight your house gets and the levels of shade your home gets throughout the day. 

The time to power wash or soft wash a house  can vary on many factors including the type of siding, the size of the house and the water flow of the property. On average, our typical house wash project takes between 2-3 hours. 

We always make sure to take the best possible care of your plants and property. We go above and beyond to ensure the proper protection of your plants. Our detergrents, when used properly, will not cause any damage to your property. 

You do not need to be home in order for us to perform the power washing service. However, we would prefer you to be home so that you can look around the house for a final inspection. If you are not home at the completion of the job, we can simply have you take a look around when you are home to confirm that you are satisfied with our work.

Power washing in most cases will improve the value of your home. We often clean homes for people who plan on selling their house. By power washing your home, you improve the curb appeal and value. It creates a much better first impression for potential buyers. 

Green algae and dirt build up is a sign that the house may not have been properly cared for and could have other hidden problems.

If it is raining the day of service we will still plan on doing the wash as normal. We wash in rain, wind and sun! However, if it is lightning then we will have to postpone the washing until our next available day. We may even postpone for a few hours until the lightning passes. 

Yes! We specialize in removing the "green stuff" from your siding. That green stuff is really just algae growing on your siding. Our cleaning process not only removes it but it also kills it and keeps it away for a longer time than just power washing it.

When we clean a house it include much more than just the siding. We wash the siding, trim, facia, window sills, gutters, trim, downspouts, garage doors, pillars, windows, and soffits.
