# Surface Cleaning in South Madison

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.

South Madison is one of the most diverse and dynamic parts of the city, stretching from the lakefront charm of Bay Creek to the commercial corridors along Park Street and out toward the Moorland-Rimrock area near the Beltline. Bay Creek's older homes sit near Olin Park and Lake Monona, where lake-effect humidity keeps siding and decks perpetually prone to mildew and green algae. Bram's Addition and Capital View feature a mix of postwar housing stock, from compact bungalows to larger multi-family buildings, all of which accumulate road grime and organic staining faster than homeowners expect. Out near the Alliant Energy Center, Burr Oaks and Pioneer neighborhoods see newer construction alongside established homes, creating a patchwork of siding materials that each require a different cleaning approach. The Total Wash Co. takes pride in serving the south side because it reflects everything we love about Madison: real people in real neighborhoods who care about their homes. We bring the same professional-grade equipment and attention to detail whether the job is a cozy Bay Creek cottage or a multi-unit building off Fish Hatchery Road. Serving Bay Creek, Bram's Addition, Capital View, Burr Oaks, and more.

## How Surface Cleaning Works in South Madison

Our proven 5-step process delivers consistent, professional results every time.

1

### Surface Assessment

Identify the material type, stain types, problem areas, and drainage direction before we start.

2

### Pre-Treat Stains

Apply degreasers, rust removers, or algaecide to stubborn stains and let them dwell for maximum effect.

3

### High-Pressure Clean

Surface cleaner attachment for flat areas delivers even, streak-free results. Wand work for edges and detail.

4

### Edge & Detail Work

Turbo nozzle for seams, expansion joints, borders, and tight spots that the surface cleaner can't reach.

5

### Rinse & Inspect

Flush all debris toward drainage, walk the job with you, and re-treat any remaining stubborn spots.
