Soft wash service for painted siding, stucco, cedar, stone, and log exteriors. Removes pine pollen, red volcanic cinder dust, algae, and post-monsoon streaking from Flagstaff homes — without damaging your finish.
Flagstaff homes face a unique mix of pollen, cinder, monsoon mud, and high-elevation algae — and the wrong cleaning method will do more harm than good.
For your home's exterior, we use the soft wash method: low pressure (under 500 PSI) combined with safe, biodegradable detergents that break down pollen, cinder, and algae. This is the only method that's safe for cedar, painted lap siding, stucco, and the cedar-and-stone exteriors common in Forest Highlands and Continental Country Club.
At 6,910 feet, Flagstaff homes get hit with ponderosa pine pollen every spring, red volcanic cinder year-round, and post-monsoon mud and tannin streaks in late summer. Each one needs a different cleaning solution, and we mix our chemistry on-site to match what's actually on your siding.
Most single-family homes in Flagstaff take 3 to 5 hours to soft wash from top to bottom. We protect landscaping, rinse plants before and after, and never touch a setting that could lift paint, etch stucco, or shred cedar.
Every Flagstaff Pressure Washing Pros house wash includes the full exterior cleaned from soffits and fascia down to the foundation. We handle the prep, the clean, and the rinse so your home looks new again.
In Flagstaff, the practical service window for house washing runs roughly April through October. Here are the moments most homeowners call us:
Most Flagstaff homes benefit from one full soft wash per year, ideally in late spring after pine pollen season has ended. Homes in heavily wooded areas like Forest Highlands, Continental Country Club, or Kachina Village often add a fall maintenance rinse to remove monsoon mud and wildfire soot before winter.
Pressure washing uses high water pressure to blast contaminants off hard surfaces like concrete. Soft washing uses low pressure (less than 500 PSI) combined with biodegradable cleaning solutions to safely clean delicate surfaces like painted siding, stucco, cedar, and shingles. For Flagstaff homes, soft washing is almost always the correct method for the house itself.
No. Because soft washing uses low pressure, it is gentle enough to use on every common Flagstaff exterior material, including cedar siding, painted lap siding, stucco, log walls, and stone veneer. We test a small area first and adjust our solution based on the surface and the staining we're cleaning.
Yes — these are two of the most common things we clean in Flagstaff. Ponderosa pine pollen leaves a yellow film on horizontal trim and lower siding every May and June. Red volcanic cinder kicks up during dry windy days and monsoon storms and stains the lower three feet of every wall facing the wind. Both come off cleanly with our soft wash process.
Costs vary based on the size and condition of your home and the type of siding. We provide free, no-obligation estimates on every project. Call (555) 000-0000 to schedule an on-site quote.
