Pressure washing uses high-pressure water to clean hard surfaces such as concrete and brick pavers. Soft washing uses low pressure and a cleaning solution that kills mold, mildew and algae, and it's the safe way to clean siding, stucco, roofs and other delicate surfaces. We choose the method for each surface on your property.

People use pressure washing, power washing and pressure cleaning for the same service. Strictly speaking, power washing uses heated water, which helps with grease, oil and gum, while pressure washing uses cold water. For homes in Maquoketa, the bigger question is pressure versus soft washing: high pressure is for concrete and other hard surfaces, and soft washing is for siding, stucco and roofs.

As a rough guide, house siding often works out to about $0.10-$0.30 per square foot and concrete flatwork to about $0.15-$0.45, with minimum charges for small jobs. Heavy staining, steep roofs, multiple stories and sealing add to the price. Call (877) 658-5887 for a free quote for your property in Maquoketa.

Roofs should not be pressure washed. High pressure strips the protective granules from asphalt shingles and can crack tile. Roofs are cleaned with a soft wash: a solution applied at low pressure that kills the algae and moss causing the stains, then rinsed gently.

We pre-wet plants and lawns, rinse them again afterward and keep the solution diluted to what each surface needs, which protects landscaping. Keep pets and children inside during the wash and until surfaces are rinsed and dry.

Most homes need a house wash every one to two years. Homes with a lot of shade, nearby trees or high humidity often need it every year, and homes in dry, sunny areas can go longer. Roofs typically need cleaning every three to five years, and driveways once a year.

Not usually. We need access to an outdoor water spigot and to every side of the house, windows and doors closed, and cars moved out of the driveway. We'll confirm the details when we book, and we walk the job with you or send photos when we finish.

Often, yes. Oil, rust, efflorescence and hard-water spots each need a specific cleaner, not just more pressure. Fresh stains usually come out completely; old oil stains that have soaked deep into concrete can lighten a lot but may not disappear. We'll tell you what to expect before we start.

Light rain doesn't stop most washing, but heavy rain, high wind, lightning and freezing temperatures do, and sealing and staining need dry weather. If the weather isn't right, we'll call to reschedule at no charge.

Yes. We clean storefronts, sidewalks, parking areas, dumpster pads, restaurants and drive-thrus, fleets, and HOA and apartment buildings, and we can work early mornings, evenings or weekends to stay out of your customers' way.

Yes, we carry insurance, and where Iowa or your city requires a license for exterior cleaning work, the job is done under that license. You're welcome to ask for proof of insurance when you book. Our work is backed by a satisfaction guarantee.

Ask for proof of insurance, a written price before work starts, and how they'll clean each surface. A good company soft washes siding and roofs instead of blasting them, protects plants, and keeps wash water out of storm drains. Be cautious of anyone who plans to use high pressure on everything.
