House Washing Service | St. Johns, FL
If you live in St. Johns, Florida, you know how quickly mold, mildew, algae, and pollen can take over your home’s exterior. Florida’s heat, humidity, and frequent rain create ideal conditions for organic growth on stucco, fiber cement siding, vinyl siding, brick, gutters, soffits, and trim. Our low-pressure house washing service safely removes these stains and restores curb appeal without damaging your home’s exterior. Benefits to annual house washing.
Hardie Board (fiber cement siding)
Many of the newer homes throughout St. Johns County, including SilverLeaf, Shearwater, TrailMark, Beacon Lake, The Preserve at St. Johns, Julington Lakes, and Rivertown are built with Hardie Board® siding. I have cleaned hundred of homes with this very siding, it’s my favorite exterior finish.
Hardie Board offers a modern appearance with clean architectural lines, if you were smart to pick a lighter color it will stand up well to Florida’s weather, and is more resistant to damage from weed trimmers, wind-blown debris, insects, and other everyday wear than many traditional siding materials. Best of all, it responds exceptionally well to our low-pressure house washing process. Even newer homes aren’t immune to Florida’s humidity. Dirt, pollen, mold, mildew, and algae begin collecting on Hardie Board within the first year, gradually dulling its appearance. An annual soft wash safely removes organic growth and restores the crisp, clean look that made you fall in love with your home in the first place.
Stucco House Washing
If your stucco home is covered with dirt, mold, mildew, algae, or black streaks, professional soft washing is the safest and most effective solution. Stucco’s textured finish easily traps dirt, pollen, dust, and organic growth deep within its pores. Over time, these contaminants create unsightly stains that make your home look older than it really is. Using high-pressure washing on stucco can permanently damage the surface by leaving etched wand marks, chipped finishes, and visible depressions. Our low-pressure soft washing process safely applies professional cleaning solutions that penetrate the porous surface, eliminate mold, mildew, algae, and bacteria, and restore your home’s curb appeal without damaging the stucco. We’ve cleaned tons of stucco homes in Julington Creek, World Golf Village, Palencia, Murabella, Markland, Bannon Lakes, St. Johns Forest, Samara Lakes, Sandy Creek, Whisper Ridge, and Grand Creek
Why cleaning your home’s exterior is a smart move before selling?
Vinyl Siding House Washing
Florida’s warm temperatures, frequent rain, and high humidity create the perfect environment for green algae to thrive on vinyl siding homes in St. Johns County. Airborne algae spores settle on shaded, damp surfaces where they feed on moisture, pollen, and organic debris. North-facing walls, areas beneath roof overhangs, and sections shaded by trees often develop algae first before it gradually spreads across the rest of the home. Routine low-pressure soft washing removes algae at its source. I have cleaned a high concentration of vinyl siding in Julington Creek Plantation, Fruit Cove, Durbin Crossing (some sections), South Hampton, Stonehurst Plantation, Aberdeen, Johns Creek, Cypress trace, and St. Johns Golf & Country Club (Go Stingrays!)
Coquina House Wash
This soft coquina exterior finish commonly found in St. Augustine also has been utilized in construction for over 400 years. In addition, coquina can be very appealing, but it shows dirt and mold from a mile away. This stuff is extra brittle and damages by simply spraying it with your garden hose. Due to its nature coquina is very porous and the mold grows very deep into its finish. We utilize diaphragm pumps to carry stronger chemical concentrates in order to safely & adequately clean coquina stone. Always remember to ask your professional pressure washing contractor if they have cleaned Coquina before. Do not hesitate to ask them to send you some before and after pics of jobs they have cleaned in the past so you can see their “No damage cleaning method”. Many of the coquina home images in this gallery were cleaned in Palencia, King & Bear, Sawgrass, St. Johns, and some even in Orange Park Golf & Country Club. Of all the exterior finishes I’ve cleaned even if you dont use me make sure to hire a pro.
