The White Vinyl Fence Nobody Cleans
Green on white vinyl is growth sitting on the surface, not a stain in the material. The bottom third and the shaded side always go first.
Straight answers about cleaning your roof
What a clean will fix, what it will not, and what it does to your landscaping. Written by the person who does the work.
Cleaning a Pool Cage Without Being There
Size, height, tree cover and how long it's been are what change a pool cage job. Photos turn that into a real number without anyone visiting.
Why Your Concrete Driveway Turns Black
That black and gray film on your driveway is living growth, not oil and not a failing slab. Rain makes it look worse, and there's a fix.
Getting a Seasonal House Ready Before You Land
Exterior work needs an outdoor spigot and access, not a person standing there. That's how a seasonal house gets cleaned before you fly back down.
Your Gutters After Five Months of Rain
Rainy season puts more than leaves in a gutter. What drives a gutter clean out, and how to tell from the ground that yours are packed.
Black Stripes on the Outside of Your Gutters
The house came out clean and the gutter faces are still striped. Those marks aren't mold and they aren't dirt, which is exactly why the wash left them.
The Best Month to Clean an Exterior Here
Everybody says late fall through early spring and nobody says why. The honest timing answer for Southwest Florida, including why July still counts.
Stucco, Vinyl and Hardie Take Different Pressure
A wall is not one material, and the same setting does not belong on all of them. Stucco, vinyl and fiber cement each get a pressure matched to the wall.
What Comes Off Before Paint Goes On
Your painter says the house is already washed and ready. There's a difference between rinsing dust off a wall and actually taking the growth off it.
Weeds and Mold in Your Paver Joints
The fear is that cleaning blows the joint sand out and leaves you with more weeds than you started with. That happens. One specific way of working causes it.
Those Orange Arcs on Your Driveway Are Your Sprinklers
The fan shaped orange on your concrete is iron from your irrigation, not growth. That's why a wash brightens everything around it and leaves it sitting.

Green screens are almost always dirty, not failed. Algae and mildew grow on the mesh and aluminum, and there's one case a cleaning won't fix.

Should You Clean Before a Storm, or After?
Cleaning your roof or walls isn't storm prep and it doesn't protect anything. Time it so you don't pay for the same job twice.
Why Is My House Green? It's September in Florida
The green on your walls is algae and mildew growing on the surface, and September is the month that feeds it. A hose won't touch it.

Torn screens almost always come from too much pressure aimed too close, not from cleaning itself.
Do You Need a New Roof, or Just a Cleaning?
A roofing company will almost always suggest replacement. There's an honest way to tell if a cleaning is actually the answer.

Cleaning removes growth. It doesn't repaint anything or turn a faded surface new again, and it's worth knowing that before you book.
Soft Wash vs Pressure Wash: Which One Goes on Your Roof?
Everyone says low pressure. The actual number is 70 PSI, and nothing on the roof is cleaned by force in the first place.
How He Prices a Job Without a Home Visit
No one has to take a morning off work or sit around waiting for a truck just to find out what a cleaning costs.
What "Soft Washing" Actually Means
The chemistry does the work and the water only rinses. That's the whole difference, and almost nobody explains it.

You're not the only one who got one this month. Get it handled without guessing what your association wants to see.

It's growth, not the roof breaking down, and there's a straightforward way to tell which one you're looking at.
