House Washing Process

How We Clean Your Property

The process starts with a walkthrough of your property to identify which surfaces need attention and what cleaning method works best for each area. Not everything gets the same treatment.

Delicate surfaces like roofing get soft wash treatment that kills algae and mold without damage. Concrete and brick can handle higher pressure to remove deep stains and buildup.

We pre-treat problem areas, apply appropriate cleaning solutions, and then rinse everything thoroughly. You’ll see the difference immediately, but the cleaning continues working for days as treated algae dies off completely.

How often should I have my house power washed in Oak Glen?

Most Oak Glen homes benefit from professional house washing every 12-18 months, depending on your property’s exposure to trees and moisture. Homes with significant shade or near wooded areas may need cleaning annually due to faster algae growth. If you’re seeing green or black streaks on your siding, or if your deck feels slippery in the morning, it’s time for cleaning. Regular maintenance prevents buildup from becoming permanent staining and keeps your property looking its best year-round.

Is power washing safe for all types of siding materials?

Different siding materials require different approaches, which is why professional service matters. Vinyl siding handles moderate pressure well, while cedar shakes and stucco need gentler soft washing techniques. Brick can typically handle higher pressure, but the mortar joints require careful attention. The key is matching the cleaning method to your specific material and its condition. We assess each surface and adjust pressure, temperature, and cleaning solutions accordingly to achieve thorough cleaning without damage.

Will power washing damage my landscaping or outdoor furniture?

Proper power washing protects your landscaping through pre-wetting plants and using appropriate cleaning solutions. We cover or move outdoor furniture and delicate plants before starting work. The cleaning solutions we use are typically biodegradable and safe for vegetation when properly diluted and rinsed. However, some temporary browning of grass or plants can occur if they’re directly exposed to concentrated cleaning solutions, which is why preparation and protection are essential parts of our process.

How long does power washing take for an average Oak Glen home?

A typical single-family home in Oak Glen takes 2-4 hours for complete exterior cleaning, depending on the home’s size and the services requested. House washing alone usually takes 1-2 hours, while adding deck cleaning, patio cleaning, or roof cleaning extends the timeline. Weather conditions and the amount of buildup also affect timing. The process can’t be rushed – proper pre-treatment, cleaning, and thorough rinsing are essential for lasting results and surface protection.

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

Power washing uses heated water along with high pressure, while pressure washing uses cold water under high pressure. The heated water in power washing is more effective at breaking down grease, grime, and organic growth like algae and mold. For most residential exterior cleaning in Oak Glen, the terms are used interchangeably, but the technique matters more than the terminology. We use the right combination of pressure, temperature, and cleaning solutions for each specific surface and cleaning challenge.

Can I power wash my own house or should I hire professionals?

While rental equipment is available, professional power washing delivers better results with less risk of property damage. Homeowners often struggle with proper pressure settings, cleaning solution mixing, and technique for different surfaces. Too much pressure can damage siding, force water behind surfaces, or create permanent streaking. Professional equipment is also more powerful and efficient than rental units. The time savings, insurance protection, and guaranteed results typically make professional service the better investment for most Oak Glen homeowners.
