House Washing FAQ for San Jose Homeowners

How often should San Jose homeowners get house washing?
Given San Jose's mediterranean climate: dry summers (avg 83°f), mild wet winters (46 inches of rain nov–april), most homeowners benefit from house washing at least once a year. Wildfire smoke exterior cleaning (August–October) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in San Jose most need house washing?
Eichler homes (post-war modernist, unique to Bay Area) and Ranch and split-level homes from 1960s–1980s are the most common home types in San Jose 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.
