Exterior cleaning refers to the process of cleaning and maintaining the outside surfaces of buildings, homes, and other structures. It involves removing dirt, grime, mold, algae, pollutants, bird droppings, and other debris that accumulate over time due to weather, environmental factors, and general wear.

• Pressure Washing / Power Washing
  • Uses high-pressure water to clean surfaces like driveways, sidewalks, decks, patios, and exterior walls.
  • Power washing uses heated water, which is more effective on grease and grime.
• Soft Washing
  • A gentler method using low-pressure water and cleaning solutions to remove mold, mildew, and algae from delicate surfaces like siding or roofs.
• Window Cleaning
  • Involves cleaning glass surfaces using water-fed poles, squeegees, or professional equipment to remove dirt, water spots, and streaks.
• Gutter Cleaning
  • Removal of leaves, debris, and sludge from rain gutters and downspouts to prevent blockages and water damage.
• Roof Cleaning
  • Removes moss, algae, lichen, and debris that can deteriorate shingles or tiles over time.
• Graffiti Removal
  • Uses specialized chemicals or pressure washing to remove spray paint or vandalism from exterior surfaces.
• Awning & Signage Cleaning
  • Cleans storefront awnings or commercial signs to maintain professional appearance.

Exterior cleaning enhances curb appeal, prolongs the life of exterior materials, and prevents damage from mold, mildew, or water buildup. It maintains property value and ensures compliance with homeowners’ association or city cleanliness standards.

Soft washing and pressure washing are two different techniques in exterior cleaning. Each plays a role in keeping properties looking like new.

Soft washing techniques rely on a blend of water, surfactants, and cleaning agents to safely remove biologicals (algae, mold, mildew, and moss), oxidation, rust, and fallout from surfaces that could be damaged by high-pressure. Soft washing is the preferred method for cleaning asphalt shingles, terra cotta tiles, slate, wood decks and fences, stucco, vinyl, aluminum, and Hardie board siding.

Pressure washing can also involve pre- and post-treatment with cleaning agents. Concrete, brick, block, and stone can withstand the higher pressures used when pressure washing a surface, making it the ideal solution for driveways, sidewalks, patios, and retaining walls.

Clear communication, full transparency, and 100% satisfaction.
