Prepping for a house wash is very simple and easy. It is always best to take down any decorations or furniture blocking access to the siding. When we are washing a house we prefer a clear and easily to access path to the surface of your house as this allows us to ensure a 100% spot free finish.
Ensure that your outdoor water outlets are turned on and flowing properly.
Also ensure that all electrical outlets are properly covered and protected.
We typically recommend washing your houses siding once every two years. This is an average time frame before you begin to see green algae come back.
Many people in our service area, Mechanicsburg and Harrisburg wash their homes once every two - three years. House washing is service that is not always required, it is more of a personal preference when it comes to timing. If you live in a heavily shaded area or near a body of water, it is likely that your siding will turn green faster than normal areas.
Soft washing is safe for siding assuming that soft washing is the cleaning method being used rather than pressure washing. Soft washing requires no high pressure which means there is no risk of causing damage to the siding color on and seals around the siding.
