House Washing in Madison, WI
Gentle soft-wash chemistry that kills algae and brightens siding — no damage.
About House Washing
Most people say 'power wash my house' when they actually need a soft wash. Real pressure washing at 3,000+ PSI will strip paint, drive water behind siding, break window seals, and kill ornamentals — and it doesn't actually kill the algae, it just hides it for a few weeks. Professional house washing uses low pressure (under 300 PSI at the surface) and a bleach-based sanitizing solution that kills the organic growth at the root. The siding comes out brighter, stays clean 6-12x longer, and the dog, the hostas, and the neighbor's roses are all fine. Our soft-wash rig metering is dialed to each substrate — vinyl siding, fiber cement (Hardie), painted wood, aluminum, cedar shake, brick, stucco, and EIFS all need a different ratio. Before we start we tarp any sensitive landscaping, water the beds to buffer dilution, and run a patch test on inconspicuous sections of painted surfaces. This topic covers the full annual maintenance wash as well as the specialty problems Madison homes face: black streaks on vinyl around gutter lines, green algae on north-facing walls, red pollen staining in spring, bird-dropping etching, spider webs in soffits, and wasp-nest removal. Every year of grime a home carries means another $10,000-$30,000 shaved off curb appeal at listing time; a good annual house wash is the cheapest pre-sale upgrade in real estate.
