What's the difference between house washing and pressure washing?
House washing uses low pressure plus specialized detergents — the soft-wash method — so stucco, siding, and paint are cleaned safely. High-pressure water alone can chip paint, force water behind siding, or damage stucco.
How often should I have my house washed?
Most Elk Grove and Sacramento homes benefit from a soft-wash exterior every 12–18 months. Homes under heavy tree cover or near farmland may need it annually.
Is soft washing safe for my plants and pets?
Yes. We use biodegradable, pet-safe detergents and pre-soak & rinse landscaping before, during, and after the wash.
Do you clean under eaves and remove cobwebs?
Yes — that's the biggest visible win from a soft wash. Eaves, soffits, corners, and light fixtures are all included.
Can you wash the house and driveway on the same visit?
Absolutely — we regularly combine house washing with concrete cleaning and window cleaning to save you a service call.
