What Affects the Price?
- Home size and total square footage of exterior surfaces
- Number of stories (multi-story homes require more equipment and time)
- Type of siding material (vinyl, brick, stucco, wood)
- Level of buildup (heavy algae or mold takes longer to treat)
- Accessibility and landscaping around the home
- Whether you're bundling services (roof cleaning, driveway, etc.)
What's Included in a Professional House Wash
When you hire a professional, you're not just paying for someone to spray water at your house. A quality house washing service includes:
- Pre-inspection of all surfaces and identification of problem areas
- Plant and landscaping protection before cleaning begins
- Application of professional-grade, biodegradable cleaning solutions
- Low-pressure soft washing of all siding, soffits, fascia, and trim
- Rinsing of windows, doors, and surrounding surfaces
- Post-cleaning walkthrough to ensure quality
Why the Cheapest Quote Isn't Always the Best
It's tempting to go with the lowest bid, but in exterior cleaning, the cheapest option often means corners are being cut. Common issues with bargain services include:
Using high pressure instead of soft washing (which can damage siding and void warranties), skipping the cleaning solution (so algae grows back within weeks), no insurance or liability coverage, and no plant protection during the cleaning process.
A reputable company will be transparent about their process, carry proper insurance, and stand behind their work. At Priority Pro Wash, we use the right methods for every surface and provide results that last.
