Most house washing services take 2–4 hours, depending on the home’s size, condition, and level of buildup.

Our soft wash process removes most stains, including algae, mildew, and organic buildup. However, some deep-set stains (such as rust, oxidation, "tiger stripes" and heavy water stains) may require special treatments. We offer rust removal and gutter brightening services to address tougher stains.

House washing is the process of safely removing dirt, algae, mold, mildew, and grime from your home’s exterior surfaces, including walls, doors, windows, eaves, fascia, soffits, and the exterior of gutters. In Florida’s humid climate, these organic contaminants thrive and can quickly build up on your home. If left untreated, they can cause staining, deterioration, and long-term damage. Organic growth like algae, mold, and mildew can slowly break down your paint, wearing away the finish over time. Regular soft washing helps protect and extend the life of your paint, keeping your home looking better for longer. Why Regular House Washing Matters Regular house washing helps: ✅ Enhance curb appeal and keep your home looking clean and well-maintained ✅ Protect your paint and exterior surfaces from damage caused by organic growth ✅ Prevent costly repairs by addressing buildup before it worsens ✅ Maintain or increase property value, especially if you’re planning to sell

No, you do not need to be home during your service—as long as we have access to an exterior water source, we can complete the job. We’ll notify you once the service is finished and provide before-and-after photos so you can see the results. How to Prepare Before We Arrive To ensure a smooth service, please: ✅ Close all windows and doors ✅ Remove vehicles from the driveway and nearby areas ✅ Clear items from surfaces being cleaned (patio furniture, decorations, etc.) This helps us work efficiently and ensures the best possible results.

In Florida’s humid environment, we recommend house washing once every 12–18 months to prevent algae buildup and maintain your home’s appearance. Homes in shaded or waterfront areas may require more frequent cleaning.

At Sunshine AquaWash, we use the soft washing method, which is a low-pressure cleaning technique that applies a specialized cleaning solution to kill mold, algae, and mildew at the root. This method is: ✔ Safe for all home exteriors – Stucco, vinyl siding, Hardie board, brick, stone, and painted surfaces ✔ More effective than pressure washing – Prevents damage while ensuring a deeper clean ✔ Long-lasting results – Eliminates organic growth instead of just rinsing it away Unlike traditional high-pressure washing, which can damage siding, chip paint, or force water under surfaces, soft washing gently cleans your home without risk of damage.

Yes—regular house washing is essential for maintaining both the appearance and longevity of your home. Over time, your home’s exterior collects dirt, algae, mold, mildew, and other contaminants. These not only make your home look dirty but can also cause long-term damage if left untreated. At Sunshine AquaWash, we use a safe soft washing process to thoroughly clean your home without damaging surfaces. This removes harmful organic growth and helps protect your exterior from premature wear. Why It Matters Regular house washing helps: ✅ Restore curb appeal and keep your home looking its best ✅ Prevent damage caused by algae, mold, and mildew buildup ✅ Extend the life of your paint and siding ✅ Avoid costly repairs down the road Whether you’re preparing for an event, planning to sell, or just keeping up with maintenance, routine house washing is a smart way to protect your investment and keep your home looking like new.

Those black streaks—commonly called “tiger stripes”—are not dirt or algae. They are caused by oxidation of the gutter’s painted surface, which cannot be removed with a standard house wash. These stains often become more noticeable after a house wash because the organic buildup (dirt, algae, mildew) that was masking them has been cleaned away. What Causes Tiger Stripes? Several factors contribute to this type of staining: 🛑 Paint Oxidation on Aluminum Gutters Over time, aluminum gutters break down beneath the paint, causing oxidation to “bleed” through the surface. 💦 Rainwater Runoff Water flowing over the gutter edge carries dirt, grime, and pollutants, leaving behind streaks as it dries. 🌧️ Florida Weather Conditions Constant sun, rain, and humidity accelerate oxidation and make these streaks more prominent. 🌫️ Debris Along the Gutter Edge Dirt and buildup along the lip of the gutter create consistent drip lines, forming the striped appearance. Can These Stains Be Removed? Yes—but not with house washing alone. Tiger stripes require a separate service called gutter brightening,(/residential-pressure-washing-services/gutterbrightening) which uses specialized cleaners designed to safely remove oxidation stains from the surface. Our Recommendation For the best results, we recommend pairing your house wash with gutter brightening (/residential-pressure-washing-services/gutterbrightening)for a complete exterior refresh.

Our gutter brightening service (/residential-pressure-washing-services/gutterbrightening)is designed specifically to remove oxidation stains, "tiger stripes", and discoloration from your gutters and fascia.

The price of a complete house wash is determined by several key factors: • Total square footage under roof – the overall size of your home plays the biggest role in cost. • Number of stories – one-story homes are easier to reach, while two-story homes may require ladder work to access higher elevations, which adds time and safety considerations. • Type of siding – different surfaces (stucco, vinyl, Hardie board, brick, etc.) require different cleaning approaches. • Level of buildup – heavy algae, mold, or mildew may require additional treatment. • Accessibility – landscaping, fences, or tight areas can influence the amount of time needed. On average, homeowners can expect to pay $275 to $800 for a professional house wash. Smaller, single-story homes typically fall on the lower end, while larger homes or those requiring ladder access for higher elevations may cost more. At Sunshine AquaWash, we calculate your estimate based on your home’s total square footage under roof and unique conditions to provide fair, accurate pricing. 💧 Additional Services: 🌿 Gutter Brightening – Removes oxidation stains (“tiger stripes”) for a fully refreshed look. 🚪 Screen Enclosure & Lanai Cleaning – Often added to house washing for a complete exterior refresh. 🧱 Driveway & Walkway Cleaning – Pairing house washing with concrete cleaning enhances curb appeal. 📞 Get a Free Custom Quote!

Yes—high-pressure washing can damage windows and screens if not done properly. Excessive pressure can crack glass, damage seals, or tear screens. At Sunshine AquaWash, we use a low-pressure soft wash system that is safe for delicate surfaces like windows, screens, and surrounding areas. A Note About Window Screens Some customers choose to remove their window screens before we arrive. This allows us to clean the areas behind them more effectively. Screens have small weep holes and mesh openings that can trap dirt and debris, which limits how much can be cleaned from behind them if they remain installed.

Flowerbed curbing cleaning, also called flowerbed edging cleaning, is the process of pressure washing or soft washing the concrete landscape borders that outline flowerbeds, gardens, and lawns. Over time, these decorative curbs collect algae, mildew, dirt, and irrigation rust stains, making them look dull and aged. Sunshine AquaWash safely restores these borders using the same professional-grade cleaning techniques we use on driveways and sidewalks—leaving your landscaping accents bright and refreshed again.

Soft washing uses low pressure and specialized cleaning agents to gently remove organic growth from siding and delicate surfaces. Power washing, on the other hand, uses higher pressure and is better suited for hard surfaces like concrete and pavers. Sunshine AquaWash provides both — so whether you need power washing near me or house washing near me, we’ve got you covered.
