What needs cleaning?
Pick a surface to see how we handle it and how much pressure it can take.
Siding: Soft wash
Vinyl, Hardie board and painted siding get a low pressure, high volume soft wash. A cleaning solution does the work on mildew and algae, so water is never forced behind the panels.
Removes: Mildew, algae, pollen, spider webs
Roof: No pressure
Black streaks on shingles are algae. Roofs are treated with a soft wash solution and gently rinsed. A pressure washer never touches the shingles.
Removes: Black streaks, algae, moss, lichen
Driveway or sidewalk: Surface cleaner
Concrete gets a rotary surface cleaner at high pressure for an even, stripe free finish, followed by a rinse and spot treatment on stubborn stains.
Removes: Mildew, dirt, red clay, tire marks
Pavers and brick: Medium pressure
Pavers and brick get a moderate setting that lifts moss and grime from the faces and joints without blasting out the joint sand.
Removes: Moss, mildew, weeds in joints
Wood deck or fence: Low pressure
Wood is cleaned at low pressure with the right cleaner so the grain does not fur up or splinter.
Removes: Gray weathering, mildew, algae
Storefront: Matched to surface
Glass, block, brick, metal and concrete each get their own method, scheduled around your business hours.
Removes: Gum, grime, mildew, stains

Getting your property cleaned in three steps
Call, text or send the form with what needs cleaning and roughly how big it is. We follow up quickly with a clear quote. Then you pick the day that works. For most outdoor jobs you do not need to be home, as long as we can reach the areas being cleaned.
We work on homes, rentals, HOA properties and businesses, from a single driveway to a full commercial building.
Why coastal homes need regular washing
Humidity, salt air and shade let mildew and algae grow fast on siding, roofs, fences and walkways around Wilmington. Spring pollen coats everything yellow, and sand and dirt work into concrete. Left alone, that growth stains surfaces and can make walkways and decks slippery.
A yearly house wash and a driveway and walkway cleaning keeps most properties looking right. Shaded sides, north facing walls and homes near the water often need it more often.
Common questions
How fast do I get a quote?
Call, text or send the form with what needs cleaning, and we follow up with a price.
What is the difference between soft washing and pressure washing?
Soft washing uses low pressure and a cleaning solution, and it is what we use on siding and roofs. Pressure washing uses higher pressure and is for hard surfaces like concrete. Read the full comparison.
Do I need to be home?
Usually not, as long as we can reach an outdoor spigot and the areas being cleaned.
Do you clean commercial properties?
Yes. Storefronts, building faces, sidewalks, dumpster pads and HOA common areas, as well as homes.
Do you install holiday lights?
Yes, for homes and businesses, including Halloween displays. See holiday lighting.
Do I need to be home?
For most outdoor jobs, no. We just need access to the areas being cleaned. We will let you know if we need anything from you.
Do you clean commercial properties?
Yes. We wash storefronts, office buildings, entrances, sidewalks and other commercial surfaces.
