House Washing
How much does house washing cost?

Will soft washing damage my vinyl siding?
No. Soft washing uses low pressure and heated detergent instead of a high-pressure blast, so it won't force water behind siding, crack panels or strip paint.
How often should I wash my house in coastal Virginia?
Most Hampton Roads homes look best with a wash once a year. Shady lots, waterfront homes and north-facing walls may need it every 9–12 months because of humidity and salt air.
Roof Soft Washing
Is roof soft washing safe for shingles?
Yes. We use low pressure, never a high-pressure blast, so granules stay put and your shingles aren't damaged.
What causes black streaks on roofs in Hampton Roads?
Mostly an airborne algae that thrives in warm, humid coastal air and feeds on the limestone in asphalt shingles. North-facing and shaded roofs get it worst.
How much does roof cleaning cost?
Roof pricing depends on square footage, pitch and how much growth there is, so we give each roof a free, upfront quote. Military and veterans save 10%.
Driveway & Concrete Cleaning
How much does driveway pressure washing cost?
Concrete cleaning is $0.20 per sq ft under 1,000 sq ft and $0.15 per sq ft over 1,000 sq ft. A typical two-car driveway is usually easy to estimate with our Quote-o-Meter.
Will pressure washing leave stripes on my driveway?
Not the way we do it. We use a surface cleaner that cleans evenly and prevents the streaking you get from a handheld wand.
Can you remove oil or rust stains?
Pressure cleaning removes dirt, mildew and grime. Oil and rust are chemical stains, so results vary. Tell us about them when you ask for a quote and we'll be upfront about what's realistic.
Deck Cleaning
How much does deck cleaning cost?
Deck pressure washing is $0.50 per square foot. A 12×16 deck (192 sq ft) is about $96. Military and veterans save 10%.
Will pressure washing damage my deck?
Not with the right technique. We use medium pressure on bare wood and low-pressure detergent on stained decks, so the wood isn't gouged or fuzzed.
Should I stain my deck after cleaning?
Cleaning is the perfect prep for stain or sealer. Let the wood dry for a couple of sunny days first.
Fence Cleaning
How much does fence cleaning cost?
Wood fences are $2 per linear foot under 50 ft and $1 per linear foot over 50 ft. Vinyl fences are $3 per 8-ft section for one side or $5 per section for both sides.
Can you get my white vinyl fence white again?
In most cases, yes. The green and black on vinyl is algae and mildew, and our detergent soft wash removes it.
Will pressure washing damage my wood fence?
We use medium pressure on wood. That's enough to remove grime without splintering boards.
Gutter Cleaning
How much is gutter cleaning?
Gutter cleaning runs $130–$249 depending on roof steepness and access. You'll get an exact quote before we start.
How often should gutters be cleaned in Hampton Roads?
At least twice a year, in late spring after the pine pollen and seed drop and again in late fall after the leaves come down. More often if you're under pines.
Do you clean the outside of gutters too?
Yes. We hand wash the outside of the gutters to remove black streaks and grime.
Window Cleaning
Do you clean windows inside and out?
We focus on exterior windows. They're part of our heated low-pressure exterior wash, which leaves glass streak-free.
Why are my windows hazy near the water?
Salt spray from the Bay and the ocean dries into a film that ordinary glass cleaner smears around. Our heated detergent wash removes it.
How much does window cleaning cost?
Window pricing depends on how many windows you have and how easy they are to reach, so we give a free, upfront quote. It's also a great add-on to a house wash.
Brick & Masonry Cleaning
Is pressure washing safe for brick?
Yes, with the right technique. We use medium pressure and keep the angle careful so mortar joints and brick faces aren't eroded.
Can you clean my chimney?
Yes. We clean the exterior brick of chimneys and remove the black mildew and algae that build up on shaded sides.
What about old or historic brick?
Older, softer brick gets an even gentler approach. Let us know the age of your home and we'll adjust.
Commercial Pressure Washing
Do you offer commercial maintenance plans?
Yes. We offer maintenance packages on a scheduled basis: monthly, quarterly or seasonal, depending on foot traffic.
Can you work outside business hours?
Yes. We're available 7 days a week from 6AM to 8PM, so we can finish before you open or after you close.
What types of properties do you clean?
Storefronts, restaurants, offices, apartment and HOA communities, churches and property-management portfolios across Hampton Roads.
