MOLD AND ALGAE DESTRUCTION

You will love how fresh your home looks after an expert power washing.

We clean any type of siding to remove mold, algae, and other environmental pollution from your home.
Whether you have vinyl, cedar shingles, or brick siding we have an eco-friendly cleaning solution to get your home look nearly new.
We love what we do and look forward to blasting away the grime on your home. 

DID YOU KNOW?

The same algae that grows on ponds is commonly found on your home's siding. Gross! Algae and mildew spores find suitable habitat on your siding thanks to small amounts of water from condensation. Nearby trees offer food in the form of microscopic carbohydrate particulate that is spread through air.

OUR UNIQUE CLEANING PROCESS

No one should ever fire up a powerwasher and put it right up to their siding.  Proper home washing requires detergents, dwell time, and thoughtful rinsing.
We are technically a "Soft Wash" company.
A soft wash uses modified power washing equipment to refresh your home's exterior with a significantly reduced chance of water penetrating your walls.
Soft-washing depends on detergents to reduce surface tension and kill mold and algae.
Wider-than-normal wand tips and high volume pumps are then used to rinse away grime.
Whereas most other power washing contractors use harsh detergents such as chlorine and phosphorus that leach into your garden, we use specially formulated detergents that have NO harmful environmental effects.

Got some mold for us to pressure wash? Perhaps some fungi or moss growing in places it shouldn’t be?

How often should I power wash my home?

Does your vinyl look like the picture to the right? Strange mold and algae growths are regular occurrences, especially in Vermont where the ever-fluctuating weather creates the perfect environment for algae growth.  Algae and mold don't need much to thrive, just some water and dust!

We recommend once every 2 years to keep your home fresh. If your home is power washed the right way there won't be any algae or mold spores immediately available to re-colonize.

Why is mold and algae bad for my home?

First of all, curb appeal - - you don't want to be the eyesore on your block.  Furthermore, if these pollutants aren't pressure washed they will reduce the lifespan of your siding.  Also the mold can get behind the siding which increases the chance of interior air pollution and moldy wall cavities.

When can I power wash my home?

Vermont Home Wash has a primary season from April 1st until November 1st. However, offer window cleaning year-round.  We are happy to provide you with reliable pressure washing on a regular basis at a discounted price.
