House Washing For a Clean, Healthy Home

Removing unsightly dirt and debris, soft wash house washing bolsters the appearance of your home’s exterior, but the benefits go beyond the aesthetics.  Using water and proven chemical agents, house washing breaks down the gunk (some of it living organisms!) that would otherwise damage your exterior surfaces if left unchecked.  Soft washing effectively removes:

  • mold
  • mildew
  • algae
  • pollen
  • dirt
  • rust
  • gunk

What to Expect With Your House Wash

Soft washing involves traditional pressure washing machinery, but the pressure is reduced. A specialized tip is used to widen the area of spray to reduce the force.  Targeted, eco-friendly chemical agents are added to the water stream to effectively remove dirt and organisms.   Soft washing is safe and effective for cleaning stucco (EIFS), vinyl siding, cedar plank siding, painted exteriors, trim, wood, Hardi Plank, and more.  It will not damage paint or mortar nor will it etch surfaces.

With an APro house wash, you can expect everything below the roof to be cleaned, including:

  • the exterior of your gutters
  • roof overhang
  • painted trim
  • siding

For convenient one-visit service, many clients add traditional power washing to their soft wash service to address other areas of the home, including roof and gutters, patios, decks and more.

House Washing FAQs

Regular professional house washing offers numerous important benefits for homeowners. It can dramatically improve your home’s curb appeal and boost its resale value. Washing also extends the lifespan of your home’s exterior by preventing damage from weathering and organic growth. Additionally, it creates a cleaner, healthier environment by eliminating allergens, pollutants, and other irritants that can accumulate on the outside of your home.

The ideal frequency for house washing depends on several factors, but most homes require a thorough exterior cleaning every 1-2 years. Homes in dirtier or more humid climates may need annual washing, while those in cleaner, drier areas can often go 18-24 months between washings. The type of siding material on your home, amount of tree coverage, and proximity to major roads or industrial areas can also impact how quickly your home gets dirty and requires professional cleaning.

There are two main approaches to professional house washing – pressure washing and soft washing. Pressure washing uses extremely high-pressure water to blast away accumulated dirt, grime, and other buildup. This method works well for tough, non-porous surfaces like concrete, vinyl, and certain types of siding.

In contrast, soft washing utilizes low-pressure water combined with specialized cleaning solutions. This gentler approach is better suited for delicate surfaces like wood, stucco, and older painted areas. Soft washing is particularly effective for removing organic growth like algae, mold, and mildew. At APro Pressure Washing, we typically recommend the soft washing method for most residential house cleaning projects to protect your home’s exterior.

When you book a house washing service with APro, we start by thoroughly inspecting your home’s exterior to identify any problem areas or special considerations. Our experienced technicians will then apply eco-friendly cleaning solutions to loosen and dissolve built-up dirt, grime, and organic growth.

Next, we use our specialized pressure washing or soft washing equipment to safely and effectively clean all of your home’s outdoor surfaces, including siding, trim, gutters, and more. Finally, we rinse away any remaining residue, leaving your home looking fresh and vibrant. Throughout the process, we take great care to protect your landscaping, windows, and other vulnerable areas.
