House Soft Washing in Chicago’s North Shore
Your home cleaned from roofline to foundation — no pressure, no damage to siding or trim.
Siding collects more than you’d expect — mold on shaded north-facing walls, dirt splashback along the foundation, cobwebs in eaves and soffits, and pollen that coats every surface in spring. A full-house wash reaches all of it, not just the spots you see from the street.
We work from the roofline down so the cleaning solution doesn’t streak over finished areas. Foam clings to vertical surfaces long enough to break down buildup, and dwell time is adjusted for the material — vinyl cleans fast, painted wood and stucco need longer. Landscaping is rinsed and protected throughout.

Why Clean Siding Matters
Extend Siding Life
Routine washing prevents permanent staining and surface breakdown. Siding lasts longer when dirt, mold, and algae are removed before they set in.
Healthier Home
Mold and algae on exterior walls work their way into cracks and seams. Removing them reduces moisture problems and keeps your home cleaner overall.
Whole-House Transformation
A full exterior wash makes a visible difference from the street — the entire home looks refreshed, not just the spots you can reach.

Frequently Asked Questions
What areas of the house does a full soft wash cover?
A full-house wash covers all siding from the roofline to the foundation, plus fascia, soffits, the outside of gutters, eaves, and window frames. We work top-down so the cleaning solution doesn’t streak over finished areas.
How long does a full-house soft wash take?
Most homes take three to five hours depending on size and the amount of buildup. Multi-story homes or properties with heavy mold or algae growth may take longer. We’ll give you a time estimate during scheduling.
I have mold on the north side of my house. Will soft washing remove it permanently?
Soft washing kills mold at the root, not just on the surface. North-facing walls regrow mold slower after treatment because the root system is destroyed. However, shaded walls will eventually develop new growth over time, so periodic retreatment (every 12 to 18 months) keeps them clean.
Should I soft wash my house before or after painting?
Before. A clean surface helps new paint adhere properly. We recommend scheduling the wash at least a week before painting so the siding has time to dry completely.
Does soft washing remove cobwebs and wasp nests from eaves?
The washing process removes cobwebs, light nests, and organic debris from eaves, soffits, and overhangs. Active wasp nests should be treated by a pest control professional before we begin.
