WHAT'S INCLUDED

The House Washing process clearly explained.

Starting at $450, this service is built around a safer, more surface-appropriate process than what most people think of when they hear the word “pressure washing.”

Included

Typically ranges from $450-$900

Soft wash application

The cleaning solution is applied to the home in a controlled low-pressure / no-pressure manner so the chemistry can do the work without stripping the surface.

Targets organic growth and grime.

Designed for siding, stucco, brick, soffits, eaves, and gutter lines.

Safer than blasting delicate materials.

Included

Landscape & plant protection

Throughout the job, surrounding greenery is rinsed before, during, and after treatment to help ensure no harm comes to nearby landscaping.

Not Included

Specialty staining exclusions

House Washing does not include iron stain removal, oxidation removal, efflorescence removal, or oil stain removal. Those can be handled separately through dedicated stain-removal services.

PROCESS

A chemistry-first house wash, not a pressure-first gamble.

House Washing should solve the buildup problem without creating a new damage problem. That means prep, chemistry, dwell time, landscaping protection, and a controlled rinse — not simply turning up pressure and hoping for the best. That approach lines up well with how common siding manufacturers frame routine cleaning and maintenance.

Prep and protect

Before treatment begins, nearby greenery and surrounding areas are pre-rinsed and protected so the application stays controlled.

Apply and dwell

The cleaning solution is applied to the siding and exterior surfaces, then allowed the right dwell time to break down buildup.

Rinse down evenly

After the dwell phase, the home is gently rinsed clean with water, leaving the surface refreshed without forcing water behind the siding.

WHY METHOD MATTERS

A cleaner result starts with using the right method for the material.

The method is a majority of the value. Good exterior cleaning is not just about blasting something until it looks lighter.

High pressure can damage siding

Using too much pressure can strip surfaces, force water where it should not go, and damage more delicate finishes and materials.

Soft washing treats the buildup at the root.

When algae, mildew, mold, moss, and similar growth are present, chemistry-driven treatment helps kill and lift the issue more effectively than water alone.

Strong pre-sale & event service

House Washing makes a home feel noticeably better before listings, showings, and gatherings because the exterior visibly brightens.

FAQ

House Washing questions homeowners actually ask when scheduling.

This should help homeowners understand what House Washing removes, what it does not remove, how the method works, and how it fits into broader exterior maintenance.

What buildup does House Washing remove?

House Washing targets lichen, algae, mold, mildew, moss, cobwebs, dirt, pollen, and other organic buildup on exterior home surfaces, especially the kind of buildup that makes siding and trim look duller, darker, or neglected.

Can every type of siding be washed the same way?

No. Vinyl, fiber cement, engineered wood, painted surfaces, and more delicate trim details can all respond differently. That is a big reason Glass House uses a softer, more surface-aware approach instead of assuming every house should be blasted the same way.

Does House Washing remove iron stains or oxidation?

Not as part of standard service. Iron stains, oxidation, and other specialty staining issues usually belong in the Stain Removal section because they need more specific chemistry and expectations.

Will House Washing damage my landscaping or plants?

The process is built around prep, controlled chemistry, rinse discipline, and protecting the areas around the house. The method should be careful, not careless.

How long does a House Washing last?

That depends on shade, moisture, nearby trees, pollen, organic exposure, and how quickly the home tends to show buildup. Some homes stay visually cleaner longer than others.

When do homeowners usually schedule House Washing?

Common reasons include visible green or dark buildup, preparing for listing photos or showings, spring cleanup, or simply wanting the home to feel better maintained.

Not every stain is organic

Iron Stain Removal and Oxidation Removal are the right next pages when the problem goes beyond normal organic buildup.
