A Clean Exterior Without the Damage
North Jersey siding does not get dirty so much as it gets alive. The humidity here, combined with the tree canopy over most of Morris and Passaic County, grows a green algae film on any wall that does not get direct sun. It starts on the north side, works around to the rear, and by the time most homeowners call, one elevation looks years older than the front of the same house.
Older vinyl adds a second problem. After twenty-odd years of Jersey summers the surface oxidizes and goes chalky, and homeowners assume the color is gone for good. Usually it is not. Underneath the oxidation and mildew the panel is fine, and a proper soft wash brings back most of what was lost, at a small fraction of the cost of new siding.
We wash at low pressure and let the cleaning solution do the work. High pressure drives water behind panels, strips paint off wood and trim, and is the single most common way a house gets damaged by a power washing contractor. We do not use it on siding, ever.
What Our House Washing Service Includes
We clean the whole exterior envelope, not just the walls you can see from the street. Every house wash includes:
- A walkthrough to identify siding type, staining, and problem elevations
- Pre-wetting and protection of plants, beds, and landscaping
- Low-pressure application of the right cleaning solution for your surface
- Gentle rinse that lifts algae, mildew, cobwebs, pollen, and road film
- Soffits, eaves, fascia, trim, gutters exterior, and shutters
- A final walkthrough with you before we pack up
Vinyl, aluminum, stucco, cedar, painted wood, brick, and stone all handled with the method that surface actually needs.

Other Services We Offer
We do more than one thing. From house and roof washing to concrete, decks, gutters, and windows, every exterior surface on your property gets handled by the same local crew.
What sets us apart
We soft wash, we don't blast
Siding and roofs get low pressure and the right cleaning solution, so the algae dies at the root instead of just getting knocked off the surface. That is the difference between a house that stays clean for years and one that greens up again by spring.
The right approach for every job
The right pressure and solution for every surface, from vinyl and cedar siding to shingles, pavers, concrete, and weathered wood. Hard surfaces take real pressure. Roofs and siding never do.

FAQs
Common questions about house washing in northern New Jersey.
Not the way we do it. High pressure drives water behind siding and strips paint, so we don't use it on your house. We apply a cleaning solution at low pressure, let the detergent do the work, and rinse gently. The result is a house that looks maintained rather than a house that looks blasted.
We protect and pre-wet plants, beds, and landscaping before we start, which is standard on every house wash. It's part of the job, not something you have to ask for.
The pressure, and what it's aimed at. Hard surfaces like concrete, brick, and pavers can take real pressure, so we pressure wash those. Siding, roofs, and wood can't, so we soft wash those instead. We match the method to the material every time.
Vinyl and painted siding oxidize after twenty-odd years of sun, and the resulting chalky layer traps pollen, road film, and mildew. Most homeowners assume the color is gone for good. Usually it isn't — a proper soft wash brings back most of what was lost for a small fraction of what new siding costs.
Eaves, soffits, and trim are part of the wash, not just the flat walls. Those are the spots that hold cobwebs and grime, and skipping them is how a clean house still looks dirty from the driveway.
A typical house wash in this area runs $250 to $500. A 2,000 square foot two-story home usually falls between $350 and $475, and a single-story ranch comes in below that.
The number depends on square footage, how many stories, how much algae has built up on the shaded elevations, and how tight the access is around the house. Cedar, stucco and older painted wood take longer than vinyl and are priced accordingly.
We quote most house washes from photos of each side of the home, so you can get a real number without scheduling a walkthrough first.
