House Washing
(CLICK TO ENLARGE)
COST:
Prices start at $100 for small houses and trailers. A typical mid-size house of between 1800-2400sq.ft. will usually estimate at $125-150. Gutter cleaning is usually recommended prior to service for best results (see gutter page). Exterior gutter stains from shingle tar ('Tiger Striping') do not come off with normal pressure washing. Call for a referral to companies that offer gutter scrubbing.
ABOUT THE SERVICE:
I use low pressure for all vinyl and painted surfaces. High pressure is for cement or cleaning/stripping decks. My chemicals are environmentally friendly (bleach is all I use) and do not harm grass, shrubs, or flowers. They are designed to remove dirt, mildew, and green algae. Service includes cleaning of front porch & steps. Stains such as rust, oil, clay, deck sealant, and dirty caulk do not come off with power washing. House washing takes about 2 hours. Payment is by cash or personal check. An invoice can be emailed upon request.
CUSTOMER PREPARATION:
All small breakable items such as wind chimes and other 'art work' should be taken indoors prior to service. Large items such as grills and furniture will be handled by us. Ground floor window screens can be removed (usually from the inside) for optimal cleaning of sills. If service is to be done while home owner is absent and the windows are the old style ones with wooden frames, care should be taken to lay out towels on the ground floor window sills as water may seep under this type of window. Lay them also at the base of entry doors that may not seal well.
