House Washing
Gentle Care for Your Home's Exterior
Serving 30+ cities throughout Metro Detroit, Macomb County, and Wayne County
About Our House Washing Service
Our house washing service uses soft wash techniques perfect for vinyl siding, painted surfaces, stucco, and brick. We remove mold, mildew, algae, and dirt buildup while protecting your home's finish.
In Southeast Michigan, siding takes a beating: humid summers feed green and black algae on shaded north walls, spring pollen cakes onto textured vinyl, and winter road salt leaves a gray haze along the foundation line. Soft washing solves all three without the risks of high pressure — a biodegradable cleaning solution kills the growth at the root, then a gentle rinse (roughly the pressure of a garden hose) carries it away. Because the organic growth is killed rather than pushed around, a soft-washed home stays clean far longer than a pressure-only rinse.
We wash vinyl, aluminum, brick, stucco, Hardie board, and painted wood, and we cover the whole envelope — siding, soffits, fascia, gutter faces, trim, and the foundation line — not just the walls you can see from the street. Plants and landscaping are pre-wet and rinsed afterward, and we never force water behind panels, into soffits, or under windows.

Our Process
What Affects the Price
- Home size and number of stories — a two-story colonial takes more time and product than a ranch
- Siding material — vinyl and aluminum clean fastest; brick, stucco, and painted wood need gentler technique
- How much growth is present — heavy algae, mold, or years of buildup takes longer to treat
- Access — tight side yards, peaks over decks, and delicate landscaping add setup time
- Add-ons booked together (driveway, roof, gutters) lower the combined cost per service
When to Schedule
Spring is the sweet spot — it clears winter salt and grime before pollen season and gives you a clean home for summer. Fall is the second-best window, ahead of the holidays and before freezing temperatures (we need it above roughly 40°F for the cleaning solution to work). If you are listing your home, wash it before the photos are taken.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does house washing cost in Macomb County?
Most single-family homes in Macomb Township, Sterling Heights, Shelby Township, and Clinton Township run $250 to $500 for a complete soft wash — single-story homes usually $250–$350, large two-story or multi-gable homes at the high end. We give an exact price with a free, no-obligation estimate.
Is soft washing safe for vinyl siding?
Yes — it is the method vinyl manufacturers recommend. We never use high pressure on siding; the cleaning solution does the work and a low-pressure rinse removes it, so there is no risk of cracked panels or water forced behind the siding.
How often should I have my house washed in Michigan?
Once a year keeps most homes here looking new. Homes with heavy shade, mature trees, or a north-facing wall that never dries may need it every 12 months; homes in open sun can often stretch to 18–24 months.
Will house washing hurt my plants or landscaping?
No. We pre-soak plants and beds before washing, keep the solution off foliage, and rinse everything thoroughly afterward. Our cleaners are biodegradable and break down quickly once diluted.
Do I need to be home during the wash?
No. We just need access to an outdoor spigot and the areas around the house. Close your windows, move vehicles away from the walls, and we handle the rest — you will get a text when we are on the way and when we are finished.
