Soft wash house washing in Hanford

Stucco is the most common exterior in Hanford, and while it stands up well to heat, it’s bad at shedding dust. Its rough, porous texture traps the fine soil that blows in off nearby fields, and over a dry season the walls take on a dull, tan cast. When sprinklers hit the house, or when winter rains finally arrive, that dust runs down in streaks beneath windows and along the base of the wall. Shaded north sides can also pick up mildew or green algae, especially during the damp, foggy stretch of winter when walls stay wet for days.

Blasting stucco with a high-pressure washer can chip paint, open hairline cracks and push water behind trim. Soft washing takes a gentler route. We apply a cleaning solution at low pressure, let it work on the dirt and growth, then rinse the surface clean from top to bottom. Eaves get cleared of cobwebs and wasp nests, which Hanford homes collect plenty of during the warm months. We pre-rinse and after-rinse your plants and lawn, and we take care around outlets, vents and light fixtures. Older wood-sided and painted homes near downtown get the same low-pressure care.

For most Hanford homes, a wash once a year keeps things looking fresh. Houses that back up to farmland, sit along busy roads or get sprinkled every morning may want it a bit more often. Plenty of people schedule a wash before listing a home for sale, before repainting, or before hosting family for the holidays.
