What we wash

  • Siding (vinyl, brick, painted surfaces) with low-pressure soft washing.
  • Driveways, sidewalks and patios: concrete and pavers.
  • Decks and fences: wood and composite.
  • Gutters (outside faces), porches and outdoor furniture.

Soft washing vs. pressure washing

High pressure is great for concrete. It's bad for vinyl siding, painted wood, window seals and roofs, where it can force water behind the surface or strip the finish. For those, we use soft washing: low pressure with cleaning solutions that kill the algae and mildew so it doesn't grow right back. Shaded houses under big trees, which is a lot of the homes in Alton and Godfrey, grow algae fast, especially on the north side.

Trees and a clean house

Branches touching the roof and siding keep the house damp and shaded, and that's where mildew and algae grow first. Trimming back overhanging limbs makes a pressure-washed house stay clean longer. We do both.

FAQ

Pressure Washing questions

Will pressure washing damage my siding?

Not when it’s done right. We use soft washing (low pressure plus cleaner) on siding and painted surfaces.

How often should a house be washed?

Most homes look good with a wash every year or two. Shaded houses under big trees may need it more often.

Are the cleaning solutions safe for plants?

We wet plants down before and after and rinse thoroughly to protect beds and lawns.

“They did such a great job! It was rainy when they came to my house and they took extra precautions and laid down boards to help lessen the tire tracks. It was really nice that all the wood was in one nice pile and out of the way! They were quick and efficient and just overall did a job well done!”

“Couldn't be happier!! The boys did a fantastic job. Cleaned up the mess. Was very polite. The price was reasonable. Was good entertainment watching the one up in the tree doing the cutting.”

“These guys were very Professional, fast Responding and Reasonably priced and that’s no lie. I would recommend them over many companies that I got estimates from. They came out, gave an estimate and did the work in less than 2 weeks. They were amazing especially since the tree was between 2 sets of power lines and they dropped it, hauled it off and cleaned up all in less than 8 hours and without disturbing traffic on a very busy road.”
