Clean Exteriors That Actually Last

Your home’s exterior takes a beating from New Jersey weather. Rain, humidity, and seasonal changes create the perfect environment for dirt, algae, and grime to build up on every surface.

When you invest in professional house washing, you’re not just getting a quick rinse. You’re getting a deep clean that removes the contaminants that make your property look aged and worn down.

Clean siding, decks, and patios don’t just look better – they last longer. Regular exterior cleaning prevents the buildup that leads to permanent staining, wood rot, and surface deterioration. Your neighbors notice the difference, and more importantly, your property value reflects it.

Our Power Washing Process

Simple Process, Professional Results

Our process starts with an assessment of your property’s specific cleaning needs. Different surfaces require different approaches – your vinyl siding needs a gentler touch than your concrete driveway, and your roof requires specialized soft wash techniques.

Next comes the preparation phase, where we protect surrounding plants and outdoor furniture. We select the right cleaning solutions based on the type of dirt, algae, or staining present on each surface.

The cleaning itself uses professional-grade equipment that delivers consistent pressure and coverage. For house washing, we use a soft wash method that removes contaminants without risking damage to siding or windows. Decks and patios get the pressure washing treatment that removes embedded dirt and slippery algae buildup.

After the cleaning is complete, you’ll see the immediate difference in your property’s appearance. Surfaces that looked permanently stained are restored to their original color, and your entire exterior looks refreshed and well-maintained.

Patio cleaning brings concrete, stone, and brick surfaces back to life, removing years of embedded dirt and stains. Paver cleaning restores the original color and definition to decorative walkways and driveways.

Each service addresses the specific challenges that Midwood homeowners face, from seasonal algae growth to the effects of New Jersey’s variable weather patterns on exterior surfaces.

How often should I have my house power washed?

Most Midwood homes benefit from professional house washing every 12-18 months, though this varies based on your specific environment. Homes with significant tree coverage or those facing north may need cleaning more frequently due to increased moisture and reduced sunlight, which promotes algae and mildew growth. If you notice green or black streaks on your siding, or if your home’s exterior looks dull compared to when it was first cleaned, it’s time for another washing. Regular cleaning actually extends the time between services because it prevents heavy buildup that becomes harder to remove.

Is power washing safe for all types of siding?

Professional power washing is safe when the right techniques are used for each siding material. Vinyl and aluminum siding can handle moderate pressure, while wood siding, stucco, and painted surfaces require soft wash methods with lower pressure and specialized cleaning solutions. The key is matching the cleaning method to the surface – this is why professional service matters. DIY pressure washing often causes damage because homeowners use too much pressure or the wrong angle. We adjust our approach based on your siding type, age, and condition to ensure effective cleaning without damage.

Will power washing damage my landscaping or outdoor furniture?

Proper preparation protects your landscaping and outdoor items during the cleaning process. We pre-wet and cover sensitive plants, and we use biodegradable cleaning solutions that won’t harm your garden when properly diluted. Outdoor furniture and decorative items are either moved or covered before we begin. The cleaning solutions we use break down naturally and won’t leave harmful residues in your soil. Most plants actually benefit from the rinse water because it removes dust and pollen from their leaves. We take care of these details so you don’t have to worry about protecting your property.

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

Pressure washing uses high-pressure water to remove dirt and grime through force, which works well for hard surfaces like concrete, brick, and stone. Soft washing uses lower pressure combined with specialized cleaning solutions to break down contaminants chemically rather than blasting them away. Soft washing is essential for delicate surfaces like roofing, painted siding, and wood. The cleaning solutions in soft washing actually kill algae, mold, and mildew at the root, so surfaces stay cleaner longer. We use both methods depending on what we’re cleaning – the right tool for each job ensures the best results without damage.

How long does the power washing process take?

A typical house washing service takes 2-4 hours depending on your home’s size and the extent of cleaning needed. Deck cleaning usually adds another 1-2 hours, while patio and driveway cleaning varies based on square footage. Roof cleaning is often scheduled separately and can take 2-3 hours for thorough treatment. Weather conditions can affect timing – we won’t rush the job if conditions aren’t ideal. Most homeowners are surprised how quickly the transformation happens, but we take the time needed to do the job right rather than cutting corners to finish faster.

What should I do to prepare my property for power washing?

Preparation is minimal on your part, but there are a few helpful steps. Remove or secure lightweight outdoor furniture, decorations, and anything that might blow around. Close all windows and doors, and let us know about any loose siding, damaged areas, or electrical connections we should avoid. If you have outdoor electrical outlets or fixtures in the cleaning area, point them out during our initial walkthrough. We handle most of the preparation, including covering plants and moving heavier items, but your input about your property’s specific concerns helps us deliver the best results safely.
