Enter your address, the size of the home and the number of stories, tick the surfaces you want washed and enter their sizes. The price adds up as you go, from our rate card. We confirm from photos or a quick look before we start, and anything that changes is quoted to you first.

Soft washing uses low pressure and a cleaning mix (mostly diluted sodium hypochlorite, the active part of household bleach, with a surfactant) to lift algae, mildew and dirt so they rinse away. High pressure on stucco, roof tiles, shingles or screens can etch, crack or tear them. We use pressure only on concrete and other hard surfaces that can take it.

We wet your plants before we start, cover the sensitive ones, keep the mix at the strength the surface needs and rinse the plants again after. Keep pets inside while we work and until surfaces are dry, usually an hour or two.

Not into the storm drain. Storm drains here run to the marsh, the Intracoastal and the ocean, and St. Johns County, St. Augustine and Jacksonville all prohibit sending wash water into them. We sweep first, protect nearby drains and keep runoff out of storm drains. Nothing runs straight into the marsh or a canal.

No. We need an outside water spigot that works and access to the areas being washed. Close the windows and doors and move cars out of the driveway if we are cleaning it. Your tech checks in and out in our app, so you can see when we arrived and when we finished. We start no earlier than 7am (9am on Sundays).

Most homes on the St. Johns coast need the house washed once or twice a year and the roof every few years. Drives and walks under trees or sprinklers often go green within six months. A twice-a-year plan keeps it ahead and costs less per visit.

How long sealer lasts depends on the product and the traffic; we leave the maker's guidance with you in writing. Stay off it on foot for a few hours and keep cars off for at least 24 hours, longer in cool or humid weather. We leave the timing in writing.

Florida does not license pressure washing, and state law does not let counties or cities require one (Fla. Stat. 489.117). We clean roofs but do not coat, seal or repair them; that is roofing work for a licensed roofer.

Tell us within 7 days and we come back and rewash it at no charge.
