Your home stops looking tired and worn down. The black streaks disappear. The green algae buildup vanishes completely.
Most importantly, you’re not dealing with the same problems again in a few months. Our approach kills organic growth at the source, giving you real protection against Old Westbury’s humid conditions that love to breed mold, mildew, and algae on exterior surfaces.
You get surfaces that look refreshed and stay that way longer. No more constant battle with buildup that makes your property look neglected, especially when you’re investing serious money in maintaining a multi-million dollar home.
We’ve been serving Old Westbury and the greater Long Island area for three years, specializing exclusively in residential exterior maintenance. We understand what homeowners in this community expect: professional service, clear communication, and results that protect significant property investments.
Unlike general contractors who dabble in power washing, we’ve built our entire operation around exterior cleaning, masonry repairs, and seasonal protection services. Our team knows Old Westbury’s specific challenges – from the humid climate that promotes organic growth to the high-end surfaces that require careful, professional treatment.
We’re licensed, insured, and accountable. When you hire us, you’re working directly with professionals who stake their reputation on every job.
We start with a thorough assessment of your home’s exterior surfaces. Different materials – vinyl siding, brick, stucco, or painted surfaces – require different approaches and pressure levels to clean effectively without causing damage.
Next, we apply our specialized cleaning solutions designed to kill algae, mold, and mildew at the source. This isn’t just surface cleaning; we’re treating the biological growth that thrives in Old Westbury’s humid environment. Our soft washing technique uses low pressure combined with professional-grade detergents to safely remove years of buildup.
Finally, we complete a detailed rinse and inspection to ensure every surface is properly cleaned and protected. You’ll see the difference immediately, but more importantly, you’ll notice how much longer your home stays clean compared to basic pressure washing approaches.

Our house washing service includes comprehensive cleaning of siding, trim, windows, doors, and all exterior surfaces. We handle everything from delicate painted surfaces to sturdy brick and stone using appropriate techniques for each material type.
In Old Westbury, we see common issues like algae growth on north-facing surfaces, mildew in shaded areas near landscaping, and organic buildup in areas with poor air circulation. Our service addresses these specific local conditions while protecting the significant investments homeowners have made in premium exterior materials.
We also identify and address minor maintenance issues during the cleaning process – things like loose caulking, damaged trim, or areas where moisture might be collecting. This bundled approach saves you time and ensures small problems don’t become expensive repairs later.
Most homes in Old Westbury benefit from professional house washing every 12-18 months, though some properties need attention more frequently depending on specific conditions. Homes with significant tree coverage, north-facing surfaces, or areas with poor air circulation often require annual cleaning to stay ahead of organic growth.
Old Westbury’s humid summers create ideal conditions for algae, mold, and mildew to thrive on exterior surfaces. Regular professional cleaning prevents this buildup from becoming embedded in porous materials like stucco or wood siding, where it becomes much more difficult and expensive to remove.
The key is consistency. Homeowners who maintain a regular cleaning schedule typically spend less over time and avoid the more aggressive treatments needed when organic growth has been allowed to establish itself for multiple seasons.
Soft washing is specifically designed for delicate and high-end exterior materials that can be damaged by high-pressure washing. We use low pressure (typically 100-500 PSI) combined with specialized cleaning solutions to safely clean vinyl siding, painted surfaces, stucco, and even premium materials like cedar shake.
The cleaning solutions do the heavy lifting, not the water pressure. This approach effectively kills organic growth while protecting surface integrity, paint finishes, and architectural details that make Old Westbury homes distinctive.
We adjust our approach based on each surface material and its condition. Older painted surfaces, natural stone, and decorative elements all receive appropriate treatment that cleans thoroughly without causing damage that could require expensive repairs or refinishing.
Basic pressure washing relies primarily on high water pressure to blast away surface dirt and grime. While this works for some applications, it doesn’t address the biological growth that’s common in Old Westbury’s climate, and it can damage delicate surfaces.
Our approach combines appropriate pressure levels with professional-grade cleaning solutions that actually kill algae, mold, and mildew at the source. This means your home stays cleaner longer because we’re treating the underlying problem, not just the visible symptoms.
We also provide comprehensive service that includes surface assessment, appropriate technique selection, and follow-up inspection. You’re not just getting a quick spray-down; you’re getting professional exterior maintenance that protects your property investment and addresses the specific challenges of maintaining a home in this area.
Absolutely. Organic growth like algae and mold doesn’t just create unsightly stains – it actually damages exterior materials over time. Algae can penetrate porous surfaces and retain moisture, leading to rot in wood surfaces and deterioration in other materials.
Regular professional house washing removes these harmful organisms before they can cause structural damage. This is particularly important for Old Westbury homeowners who have significant investments in premium exterior materials and architectural features.
We’ve seen cases where neglected organic growth led to expensive repairs that could have been prevented with regular maintenance. Insurance companies are also increasingly concerned about homes with visible mold or algae growth, as it indicates potential structural issues.
Old Westbury’s location on Long Island creates a perfect storm for exterior maintenance challenges. The humid summers, proximity to water, and mature landscaping create ideal conditions for rapid organic growth on home exteriors.
We’ve developed our cleaning approach specifically for these local conditions. Our cleaning solutions are formulated to address the types of algae and mold that thrive in this climate, and our techniques account for the premium materials commonly used in Old Westbury construction.
We also understand the seasonal patterns – when growth accelerates, which surfaces are most vulnerable, and how to time maintenance for maximum effectiveness. This local expertise means better results and longer-lasting cleanliness compared to generic pressure washing services.
The process typically takes a full day for most Old Westbury homes, depending on size and condition. We start early to avoid disrupting your day and work systematically around your property to minimize any inconvenience.
You’ll see immediate results as we work – surfaces transform from stained and dingy to clean and bright. We protect landscaping, outdoor furniture, and other items during the process, and we clean up thoroughly when finished.
After completion, you’ll notice your home looks refreshed and well-maintained. More importantly, the cleaning solutions continue working for several weeks after application, providing ongoing protection against new organic growth. Most clients are surprised by how much brighter and more vibrant their home’s exterior looks once years of buildup are properly removed.
