House Washing Process

How Professional Cleaning Actually Works

First, we assess your property to determine the right approach for each surface. Your roof gets soft washing to remove those black streaks without damaging shingles. Your siding gets the pressure level that cleans without forcing water behind the material.

Deck cleaning involves removing built-up grime and treating algae growth that makes surfaces slippery. Patio cleaning and paver cleaning restore the original color you forgot was there. Each surface gets the specific treatment it needs.

The process includes protecting your landscaping and ensuring water doesn’t end up where it shouldn’t. You get a walkthrough before and after so you can see exactly what changed. Most jobs are completed in a single day, and you can use your outdoor spaces immediately after cleaning.

How often should I have my house power washed?

Most Edgewood Park homes benefit from professional house washing every 1-2 years, depending on your property’s exposure to trees, moisture, and weather conditions. Homes with more shade or surrounded by trees typically need cleaning more frequently because they retain moisture longer, promoting algae and mold growth. If you notice black streaks, green algae, or your siding looking dull, it’s time for cleaning. Regular exterior cleaning actually saves money long-term by preventing the buildup that leads to permanent staining or surface damage.

Is pressure washing safe for all types of siding?

Different siding materials require different approaches, which is why professional service matters. Vinyl siding can handle moderate pressure when applied correctly, but too much pressure can crack or warp the material. Wood siding needs gentler treatment to avoid gouging or splintering. Brick and stone can typically handle higher pressure, but the mortar joints require careful attention. Stucco and painted surfaces often need soft washing instead of high pressure. Professional equipment allows for precise pressure control that rental units can’t match, ensuring your siding gets clean without damage.

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

Soft washing uses lower pressure combined with specialized cleaning solutions to remove algae, mold, and stains without damaging delicate surfaces. This method is essential for roof cleaning, painted surfaces, and older siding materials. Pressure washing uses higher water pressure to blast away dirt and grime from durable surfaces like concrete, brick, and newer composite materials. Most complete exterior cleaning jobs require both techniques depending on what’s being cleaned. The key is knowing which method to use where, something that comes with experience and proper training.

Will power washing damage my landscaping or plants?

Professional exterior cleaning includes protecting your landscaping throughout the process. Plants and shrubs get covered or watered down before cleaning begins, and any cleaning solutions are diluted to safe levels before they reach soil or vegetation. The water pressure is directed away from delicate plants, and runoff is managed to prevent concentrated chemicals from pooling around your landscaping. After cleaning, plants are rinsed again to remove any residual cleaning solution. Proper technique and preparation mean your landscaping stays healthy while your house gets clean.

How long does the cleaning process take?

Most residential exterior cleaning jobs in Edgewood Park take 4-8 hours depending on your property size and what services you’re having done. A basic house washing might take half a day, while a complete package including house washing, deck cleaning, roof cleaning, and patio cleaning could take a full day. Weather conditions can affect timing, and some jobs may be split across two days if your property is particularly large or has extensive deck and patio areas. You’ll get a time estimate upfront so you can plan accordingly.

What should I do to prepare for power washing service?

Remove or secure any loose outdoor furniture, decorations, or items that could be damaged by water or need to be moved for access. Close all windows and doors, and let us know about any areas of concern like loose siding, damaged screens, or sensitive plants. Clear vehicles from driveways and walkways that will be cleaned. Most preparation is handled by our cleaning crew, but giving us clear access and removing valuable items from the work area helps ensure everything goes smoothly and nothing gets damaged during the cleaning process.
