House Washing

House washing that protects the finish

House washing is not the same job as blasting a driveway. Siding, stucco, painted trim, and soffits need a controlled wash that lifts algae, mildew, mold, pollen, and oxidation without etching the surface or driving water where it does not belong.

That distinction matters in humid markets. Green and black organic growth cling to north walls, shaded elevations, and irrigation-soaked corners. A proper house wash kills and rinses that growth, brightens the elevation, and helps the paint or finish last longer.

A.R.C. Pressure Washing uses the pressure and cleaning solution the material can handle. Soft washing is the default for many home exteriors. Higher pressure stays on surfaces that can take it. The house should look freshly maintained — not stripped, spotted, or scarred.

Surfaces included in house washing

• Vinyl, fiber-cement, and painted siding
• Stucco, brick, and painted masonry
• Fascia, soffits, shutters, and exterior trim
• Garage doors and entry surrounds
• Prep washing before a paint job

House washing is often paired with driveway cleaning or a full residential pressure washing package when the rest of the property needs the same reset.
