Basic House Wash Services In Charlotte, NC

Now that you have located a company that offers exterior house washing near you, the question is, what does ProForce Pro Wash do to clean and protect your Charlotte area home? In most cleaning cases, we use a three-step process to clean brick, concrete, wood, and vinyl.

First, we pre-treat the area with a product mix that breaks down and dislodges organic material. Next, we use concentrated water pressure to remove the dislodged debris and organisms. The amount of water pressure we use depends upon the softness of the material. For example, we use higher water pressure for concrete, bricks, paving stones, etc., but lower water pressure for wood and vinyl to avoid damage. A house wash generally requires 150 to 200 gallons, depending on the size of the structure. Although that may sound like a lot of water, you most likely will not see an impact on your water bill. The third step in the cleaning process involves a post-treatment to brighten and renew the cleaned surfaces. We also use our process to eliminate chalky white reside from sun oxidation on the sides of Charlotte homes.

Because they outline the roof and naturally attract attention, we clean debris from gutters and lightly scrub them with a cleaning solution to remove "tiger stripes." By removing debris trapped in the downspouts and gutter ends, we eliminate natural Petri dishes for leaf molds and sheltering locations for rodents, birds, roaches, and other pests; this also eliminates breeding grounds for mosquitoes.

Draining into the gutters is water runoff from the roof. This part of the house faces the brunt of the wind, rain, hail, the hot summer sun, and occasionally cold winter snow. Unless a roof cleaning occurs every five to seven years, algae can develop and begin feeding on the limestone in the shingles. A routine roof cleaning by ProForce Pro Wash may extend the life of a roof by 20%.

We have our share of red clay in North Carolina, and when winds disturb bare ground around the house, a reddish hue can develop on the exterior. If you see any discoloration from the clay, do not delay because the longer you wait, the harder it is to remove. To remove these stubborn stains, we use a masonry detergent and wash it off using appropriate water pressure to remove the stains.

A ProForce Pro Wash exterior house washing includes wood surfaces too. Using our three-step process, we take special care to preserve stained wood finishes while also focusing on renewing wooden decks, railings, and porches.
