Professional soft wash house cleaning throughout Charlotte. We clean homes from Myers Park to Ballantyne and everywhere in between.
That green film coating your vinyl siding isn't just dirt you can hose off. It's a combination of algae, mold, and mildew that's been growing since the last time your house was properly cleaned. Charlotte's climate makes this problem unavoidable.
The Queen City sits in a humid subtropical zone where summer humidity regularly tops 70%. We get over 43 inches of rain per year. Charlotte's famous urban tree canopy is beautiful, but it keeps many homes partially shaded year-round. All these factors combine to make Charlotte a prime environment for organic growth on exterior surfaces.
North-facing walls get hit hardest because they stay damp longest. But look closely at any home that hasn't been cleaned in 2-3 years, and you'll see the green spreading across every surface. The good news? A professional house wash removes all of it and leaves your home looking years younger.
Different areas, different home types, same quality results
Charlotte's historic neighborhoods feature a mix of painted wood, original brick, and stucco that requires careful handling. Many Myers Park and Dilworth homes have been standing for nearly a century. We use our gentlest soft wash approach for these homes, taking extra care around original woodwork and historic details.
These mature neighborhoods have extensive landscaping and large lots with significant tree coverage. We see heavy organic growth from the shade, but we also protect your valuable landscaping throughout the cleaning process. Most homes here have vinyl or brick siding that responds well to soft washing.
Charlotte's growth areas feature newer homes, often with vinyl siding and Hardie board. Even homes built in the last 5-10 years can show significant green growth due to Charlotte's climate. We clean hundreds of homes in these neighborhoods, keeping them looking fresh despite the humidity.
City homes face unique challenges: air pollution residue, construction dust from ongoing development, and tight lot spacing that limits airflow. We're experienced with townhomes, rowhomes, and properties with limited access. Urban Charlotte homes often need cleaning more frequently than suburban properties.
Clear pricing for Charlotte homeowners
Most Charlotte house washes run $400-$800 for a typical 2,000 sq ft two-story home. Larger homes in Myers Park or Ballantyne, or homes with heavy staining, may cost more. Our minimum service is $350. We provide free estimates based on your specific home.
Red clay stains are a Charlotte specialty - the Piedmont red clay gets splashed onto foundations and lower siding throughout the area. We can treat red clay stains, but it requires specialty chemicals and is priced separately from a standard house wash. Let us know during your estimate if you have red clay staining.
Charlotte's humid climate and mature tree canopy create ideal conditions for algae and mildew growth on siding. North-facing walls, areas under trees, and shaded sections get hit hardest. The Queen City's average humidity above 70% in summer means organic growth thrives. Regular soft washing every 1-3 years keeps it under control.
Yes, we frequently work in Dilworth, Myers Park, Plaza Midwood, Elizabeth, and Fourth Ward. Historic homes often have painted wood, original brick, or other materials that need extra care. Our soft wash method is safe for these surfaces, and we take the time to understand what each historic home needs.
Results typically last 1-3 years in Charlotte depending on your specific conditions. Homes with heavy tree coverage or north-facing walls may see regrowth sooner. Sunny, well-ventilated homes can stay clean for 3+ years. We recommend annual cleaning for best curb appeal, but every 2-3 years keeps most Charlotte homes looking good.
