Pressure washing your house can have many benefits such as improving the curb appeal of your home to even improving the perceived value of your home if you plan on selling it.

In this quick overview, we will cover a few of the biggest benefits of pressure washing your home. 

Before we begin, it is important to mention that when it comes to “Pressure washing” your house, high pressure is never a good option. Instead what we recommend is a process known as soft washing. Soft washing is simply the process of using safe cleaning solutions to bring the exterior surface back to its original look rather than relying on dangerous high pressure washing. Soft Washing a home is a lot like washing your car at a professional car wash , using soaps and surfactants to gently clean the surface and then a low pressure rinse. You would never use high pressure on your vehicle's painted surface ,  your properties siding is no different. 

Now that we've gotten that out of the way, let's get into it!

Benefit #1: Increases Homes Perceived Value

When you plan on putting your house on the market it is a very good idea to do everything you can to increase the value of your home in order to maximize the price. Pressure washing and exterior cleaning is one of the cheapest solutions available to you that will have the biggest price increase for your home.

First impressions are everything! You wouldn’t want a prospective buyer to be turned away from your home simply because the first impression is covered with green algae and cobwebs. A quick soft wash is something that can easily and affordably solve this problem.

Benefit #2: Increases You Homes Curb Appeal

If you are having a barbeque or a family get- together would you want your house to look dirty? 

This is one of the biggest problems with algae and other organic materials that grow on your properties siding. Your home is your biggest asset, one of the most important possessions that you own, it represents you and your family. You keep the inside of your home cleaned for visitors, it makes sense to also keep the outside of your home cleaned!

Benefit #3: Remove the health hazard presented by the airborne algae, mold & mildew

Do you have a deck, patio or gazebo and you regularly enjoy sitting outside with your family? Did you know that the unsightly green algae growing on your siding and deck is also airborne? You’re breathing it in every time you sit on your deck / patio or spend time around the exterior of your home!

The reason we love our soft washing process so much more than pressure washing is that our solution actually sanitizes your siding, decks, and patios rather than just removing what you can see. This means that the algae is removed and will stay removed for a much longer period of time.  This airborne organic matter ( algae , mold & mildew ) is notorious for causing allergic irritations from those who suffer from allergies. Keeping your home's exterior surface clean can help mitigate these factors. 

So as you can see, cleaning your home's siding has many more benefits than just the looks! It can improve the value of your home and the health and safety of your loved ones.
