House Washing Austin TX
Complete exterior house washing using safe soft wash techniques. Remove years of mold, mildew, algae, and staining from your Austin home without any risk of damage.
Professional House Washing in Austin TX
Austin's climate is both a blessing and a challenge for homeowners. The warm temperatures, periodic heavy rains, and high humidity throughout the summer create ideal conditions for mold, mildew, and algae growth on home exteriors. What starts as a few green patches on the north side of the house can spread across the entire exterior within one or two seasons.
The most common issues Austin homeowners face include green algae on shaded siding, black mold streaks on vinyl and stucco, cedar pollen staining on light-colored exteriors in winter, and calcium deposits on brick and stone from hard water irrigation. All of these respond well to professional soft washing.
Our soft wash technique uses low-pressure application of specialized, biodegradable cleaning solutions. Unlike high-pressure washing, soft washing kills mold and algae at the root rather than just blasting the surface. This means results that last 2-3 times longer than standard pressure washing, and zero risk of forcing water behind siding, damaging paint, or etching soft surfaces.

House Washing Questions Answered
What is soft washing and why is it better than pressure washing for my home?
Soft washing uses cleaning solutions applied at garden-hose pressure, while pressure washing uses high-pressure water. For home exteriors, soft washing is superior because it kills mold and algae organisms at their roots, preventing regrowth for 1-2 years. High pressure can force water behind siding, damage paint, and actually spread mold spores to new areas.
Will house washing affect my landscaping or pets?
We use biodegradable, plant-safe cleaning solutions. Before washing, we pre-wet your plants and landscaping to dilute any overspray. Our solutions are safe once diluted and rinsed. We take care around potted plants and request that pets be kept inside during the service.
