House Washing FAQ for Cleveland Homeowners

How often should Cleveland homeowners get house washing?
Given Cleveland's lake-effect snow: 60+ inches in cleveland, 100+ inches east of the city, most homeowners benefit from house washing at least once a year. Ice dam prevention and removal (November–March) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Cleveland most need house washing?
Brick colonial and Tudor homes in Shaker Heights and Cleveland Heights and Victorian homes in Tremont, Ohio City, and Gordon Square are the most common home types in Cleveland and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
What's the difference between soft washing and pressure washing?
Pressure washing uses high water pressure to mechanically remove surface dirt. Soft washing uses low pressure combined with professional cleaning solutions that kill and remove biological growth — algae, mold, mildew — at the root for longer-lasting results.
Is soft washing safe for painted siding?
Yes. Soft washing is actually recommended for painted surfaces because high pressure can chip, peel, or damage paint. Our solutions are formulated to clean without harming exterior finishes.
How long will house washing results last?
In most climates, professional soft washing keeps exterior surfaces clean for 2–4 years. Homes in very humid environments or under heavy tree cover may need cleaning every 1–2 years.
