Surface Cleaning in New Glarus
Professional pressure washing for driveways, patios, decks, and every type of stain.
Stains other companies walk away from? That's where we start. We match the right pressure, nozzle, and chemical treatment to each surface — because concrete, pavers, wood, and composite all need different approaches. Commercial-grade equipment delivers even, streak-free results across your driveway, patio, deck, and walkways in a single visit.
New Glarus calls itself America's Little Switzerland and sits about 27 miles southwest of Madison in Green County, tucked into some of the most picturesque Driftless Area hills in the state. The village is famous for its Swiss chalet architecture, which means a lot of properties here have genuine decorative wood trim, painted fretwork, and detailed balcony elements that absolutely cannot survive aggressive power washing under any circumstances. Downtown New Glarus along Main Street includes iconic Swiss themed buildings whose painted wood facades, flower boxes, and carved trim require careful, low pressure, hand application cleaning by experienced hands. Residential streets up Brewery Hill and toward the New Glarus Woods State Park feature a mix of Swiss influenced single family homes, mid-century ranches, and newer construction with mature landscaping that creates additional shade and moisture conditions. Sugar River adjacent properties deal with persistent moisture, algae on stucco finishes, and accelerated weathering of painted wood. The Highway 69 corridor commercial properties near the brewery see heavy tourist season traffic from May through October. The Total Wash Co. respects what makes New Glarus architecturally special and treats every job here as a preservation project, not just a wash. Owner-operated accountability matters most when the architecture is irreplaceable. Serving Downtown New Glarus, Main Street, Sugar River, New Glarus Woods area, and more.
What is surface cleaning in New Glarus, WI?
Pressure washing and surface cleaning in New Glarus, WI covers driveways, patios, decks, pool surrounds, and retaining walls — matching the right pressure and chemistry to each material. I'm Ashton Ferry, owner of The Total Wash Co., and concrete and paver cleaning is one of our most satisfying services: you can see the line between clean and dirty in real time. A 2-car driveway in New Glarus typically runs $280–$395; a standard patio or deck (200–400 sq ft) runs $295–$445. New Glarus's freeze-thaw cycle is brutal on concrete — every winter leaves cracks, salt staining, and algae in shaded areas. We see serious algae and mold on driveways and patios in Monona, McFarland, and Stoughton where lots have heavy shade cover. Oil stains, rust from well water or fertilizer, paint overspray, and efflorescence (white mineral deposits on brick) all get specialized pre-treatment before the pressure hits. Commercial-grade walk-behind surface cleaners deliver even, streak-free results — no wand-only zebra stripes. Concrete sealing available same-day after cleaning.
