House Washing for Every Siding Type: Vinyl, Stucco, Brick & Wood

Your home's siding takes everything the Fraser Valley throws at it—rain, humidity, pollen, and long stretches of shade that encourage mold and algae. Professional house washing restores your home's appearance and protects the material underneath—but the right method depends entirely on your siding type.

Why Siding Type Determines the Method

There's no single "correct" way to wash a house. Force that cleans a concrete wall beautifully can devastate wood siding, and a gentle approach that's perfect for stucco may not fully remove stubborn growth from vinyl. That's why we match the technique to the material—every time.

How We Treat Each Siding Type

Vinyl Siding

Vinyl is prone to green algae and mildew, especially on shaded sides. We use a gentle soft wash that lifts growth without forcing water behind the panels—avoiding hidden moisture that can rot the structure underneath.

Stucco

Stucco is porous and easily damaged by high pressure, which can crack the surface and drive water in. We use low-pressure soft washing with solutions that clean deeply without harming the finish.

Brick and Masonry

Brick is durable but its mortar is not—and too much pressure erodes it over time. We clean controlled and evenly, protecting mortar joints while removing dirt, efflorescence, and organic staining.

Wood and Painted Siding

Wood needs the gentlest touch of all. Soft washing removes dirt, mold, and mildew while protecting paint, stain, and the wood fibers beneath—no gouging, no fuzzy grain, no premature peeling.

Pro Tip: Soft washing doesn't just clean siding—it kills the mold, mildew, and algae at the root, so your home stays cleaner for far longer between cleanings.

Why Professional House Washing Matters

• Protects your investment — removes growth before it eats into and stains siding
• Boosts curb appeal — a clean exterior instantly makes your home look well-maintained
• Avoids damage — the right method prevents water intrusion, cracked stucco, and eroded mortar
• Longer-lasting results — eliminating the cause of staining means less frequent cleaning
• Whole-home approach — we clean siding, soffits, fascia, and trim together for a consistent finish

Pair It With Protection

After cleaning, adding GoNano™ weather protection to suitable surfaces helps repel water, resist organic growth, and keep your home looking cleaner for years. Clean first, protect second—that's the Gutter'Dun approach.
