House Washing in Harrison Township, MI
Built for the lake: the wash that clears the black mold and the white haze Lake St. Clair leaves on every home.
Why Harrison Township Homes Need Their Own House Washing Approach
No community we serve is harder on a house exterior than Harrison Township. Lake St. Clair sits right there, and the neighborhoods off Jefferson — Shady Beach Estates, Georgian Shores, Lake Pointe, the North Channel streets — live in constant lake moisture: fog in spring, humidity all summer, and ice fog in winter. The 1950s-to-1980s brick ranches, colonials, and split-levels here show it as heavy black mold on the shaded side and a white chalky film on the side that faces the water.
House washing for Harrison Township is a two-part job. The soft-wash solution kills the mold and algae at the root, and a mineral-dissolving rinse removes the lake residue that ordinary washing leaves behind. We work around docks, seawalls, and canals every week during boating season, we are fifteen minutes from the shop, and we schedule lakefront homes early in the spring before the water gets busy.
House Washing Challenges in Harrison Township
What we run into on Harrison Township homes, and how we handle each one.
Black mold on the shaded side
The combination of dense lakeside humidity and shade from neighboring houses produces the darkest siding growth in Macomb County. It is mold and algae together, and it needs a real dwell time to kill. We build that into every Harrison Township wash instead of rushing the rinse.
White chalky residue on the water side
Wind carries mineral-laden spray off the lake onto homes near the shore, leaving a milky haze that does not rinse off with water. It is dissolved minerals, and it needs an acidic rinse additive that we apply after the main wash and then rinse away completely.
Aluminum siding and seawall caps
A lot of Harrison Township homes still wear original aluminum siding, and many have a concrete seawall cap along the canal that gets the same mold. Aluminum needs an oxidation-safe wash so it does not streak, and the seawall cap is cleaned with the house so the whole backyard looks right from the boat.
Our House Washing Process in Harrison Township
We begin a Harrison Township wash on the lake-facing wall while the day is cool, so the solution does not dry on the siding. Beds, lawn edges, and the canal-bank plantings are soaked first. The soft-wash mix goes on bottom-up with a long dwell on the shaded and lake-facing sides, then is rinsed top-down at low pressure. Once the growth is gone, the mineral rinse is applied to the water-facing surfaces and rinsed off before it can dry. We wash from the seawall side when a dock or boat blocks the usual access, and we always finish the street side last so it dries spotless.

House Washing Pricing in Harrison Township
House washing in Harrison Township runs $275 to $500 for most homes. The lakefront premium is real: water-facing homes usually need the mineral rinse and a longer dwell, which adds a little time. Inland homes off Metro Parkway and near the library price the same as the rest of the county.
