Service Offerings
We provide a comprehensive range of exterior home washing services designed to restore the beauty and protect the integrity of your property. Our services utilize environmentally conscious cleaning solutions and advanced equipment, ensuring a superior clean without harming your home or the environment. We are committed to delivering exceptional results and exceeding your expectations.
Our team is highly trained and experienced in handling various exterior surfaces and materials. We understand the unique challenges presented by different materials and tailor our cleaning methods accordingly, ensuring optimal results and longevity of your home’s exterior.
Pressure Washing
Pressure washing is a highly effective method for removing dirt, grime, mildew, and other contaminants from a variety of surfaces. We use adjustable pressure settings to ensure the safety and preservation of delicate surfaces like siding and trim, while effectively removing stubborn dirt from more durable surfaces like driveways and patios. Our pressure washing services are ideal for maintaining the cleanliness and aesthetic appeal of your home’s exterior. We utilize commercial-grade pressure washers that offer superior cleaning power compared to consumer-grade models.
Soft Washing
Soft washing is a gentler, low-pressure cleaning method ideal for delicate surfaces such as vinyl siding, stucco, and painted surfaces. This process uses a specialized cleaning solution that effectively breaks down and removes dirt, mold, and mildew without causing damage. The solution is applied using a low-pressure nozzle, reducing the risk of damage to the surface. This approach provides a thorough clean while preserving the integrity of the material.
Roof Cleaning
A clean roof not only enhances the curb appeal of your home but also extends its lifespan. Our roof cleaning services utilize a combination of soft washing techniques and specialized cleaning solutions to remove algae, moss, lichen, and other organic growth that can damage roofing materials. We use solutions specifically designed to be gentle on asphalt shingles, tile roofs, and other roofing materials. Regular roof cleaning can prevent costly repairs and premature roof replacement.
Gutter Cleaning
Clean gutters are essential for protecting your home from water damage. Our gutter cleaning services remove leaves, debris, and other blockages that can impede proper water drainage. Clogged gutters can lead to water damage to your roof, foundation, and siding. Our team carefully cleans and inspects your gutters, ensuring optimal drainage and protecting your home’s structural integrity.
Cleaning Solutions
The cleaning solutions we use are carefully selected based on the type of surface being cleaned. For siding, we typically use a blend of biodegradable detergents and algaecides to effectively remove dirt, mold, and mildew. Brick and stone surfaces often require a different approach, using solutions that are less abrasive to prevent damage. All our cleaning solutions are environmentally friendly and safe for your family and pets.
Benefits of Professional Exterior Cleaning
Professional exterior cleaning offers significant advantages over DIY methods. Our team utilizes specialized equipment, including high-powered pressure washers and low-pressure soft washing systems, which are far more effective than consumer-grade equipment. Furthermore, our expertise ensures that the cleaning process is performed safely and correctly, preventing damage to your home’s exterior. Our experience in identifying and treating various types of stains and contaminants guarantees a superior and long-lasting clean.

Our pricing structure is designed to be transparent and fair, reflecting the scope of work required for each individual property. We offer several packages to cater to diverse needs and budgets, ensuring you receive the best value for your investment.
Our pricing model combines elements of both value-based and cost-based pricing. While we factor in the cost of labor, materials, and equipment, we also emphasize the value delivered—a pristine exterior that enhances your home’s curb appeal and protects its longevity. Competitor analysis reveals a range of pricing strategies, from fixed-price packages to per-square-foot rates. Some competitors focus solely on cost-based pricing, potentially overlooking the unique needs of individual properties. Our approach offers a more personalized service, resulting in a more accurate and fair price.
Pricing Structure and Packages
Our pricing is primarily determined by the size of the house (measured in square footage of exterior walls and roof), the type of surfaces (e.g., siding, brick, stucco), and the level of cleaning required (basic, standard, or premium). A basic cleaning focuses on removing loose dirt and grime, while a standard cleaning includes more thorough cleaning and stain removal. The premium package encompasses all aspects of standard cleaning plus specialized treatments for stubborn stains and mildew.
Below is a sample price list. Note that these are estimates, and an accurate quote requires a free, on-site assessment of your property.
- Basic Package: Starting at $0.25 per square foot of exterior wall surface. This includes a basic wash to remove loose dirt and debris.
- Standard Package: Starting at $0.35 per square foot of exterior wall surface. This includes a more thorough cleaning, addressing moderate staining and mildew.
- Premium Package: Starting at $0.50 per square foot of exterior wall surface. This encompasses a comprehensive cleaning, addressing stubborn stains, mildew, and algae, and may include specialized treatments.
- Add-ons: Roof cleaning, gutter cleaning, window washing are available as add-ons at additional costs, priced per square foot or per unit (e.g., gutters).
Rationale Behind Pricing Model
Our tiered pricing structure allows us to offer a range of services to meet various budgets and cleaning needs. The per-square-foot pricing is common in the exterior cleaning industry and provides a transparent and easily understandable pricing model. The price difference between packages reflects the increased labor and materials required for more intensive cleaning processes. For instance, the premium package often requires specialized cleaning solutions and more time to address stubborn stains and mildew, justifying the higher price point. Our on-site assessment ensures that we provide a precise quote tailored to your specific property’s requirements, avoiding any surprises.
Operational Procedures
Our exterior home washing service operates with a meticulous, systematic approach, ensuring consistent high-quality results and client satisfaction.

The process begins with a thorough pre-cleaning inspection to identify any potential issues, such as loose paint or delicate materials. Next, we carefully prepare the area, covering plants and landscaping to protect them from cleaning solutions. We then apply our specialized cleaning solutions, using low-pressure washing techniques where appropriate to avoid damage. This is followed by a thorough rinsing process, ensuring all residue is removed. Finally, a post-cleaning inspection is conducted to confirm the quality of the work before the final walkthrough with the client.

A sample script for handling customer inquiries might begin with a friendly greeting and an open-ended question like, “What can I help you with today?” After understanding their needs, we will highlight the benefits relevant to their specific concerns. For example, if they mention concerns about mold, we can emphasize our environmentally friendly cleaning solutions and the protective effect against further mold growth. Closing the sale might involve offering a special introductory price or a package deal, reiterating the value proposition, and making the next steps clear and easy. A strong closing statement might be, “Based on your needs, I recommend our Premium Package, which includes [list key features].
