You walk outside and see exactly what you’ve been avoiding. Black streaks running down your siding. Green algae coating your driveway. That patio you used to be proud of now looks tired and neglected.
Here’s what changes after professional power washing: Your home looks like it did when you first bought it. Neighbors notice. Your property value stays protected. Most importantly, you stop cringing every time you pull into your driveway.
The difference isn’t subtle. It’s the kind of transformation that makes you wonder why you waited so long.
We’ve been serving Glen Cove homeowners for three years with one simple approach: do the job right, or do it over. We’re licensed and insured because that matters when someone’s working around your home.
Glen Cove’s humid climate creates perfect conditions for mold, mildew, and algae growth. We understand exactly how these contaminants affect different surfaces – from vinyl siding to concrete driveways. That’s why we use the right pressure and cleaning solutions for each job.
When something goes wrong, you deal directly with the owner. No phone trees, no excuses, just solutions.
First, we inspect your property and identify problem areas. Different surfaces need different approaches, and we plan accordingly. We also protect your landscaping before we start.
Next comes pre-treatment. We apply eco-friendly cleaning solutions that break down mold, mildew, and stains. This step is crucial – it means we can use lower pressure while getting better results.
Then we power wash using professional equipment with adjustable pressure settings. Hot water when needed, soft washing for delicate surfaces, and surface cleaners for large areas like driveways.
Finally, we do a complete walkthrough with you. You inspect everything, and we don’t consider the job finished until you’re satisfied.

Your Glen Cove home faces unique challenges. The humid climate near Hempstead Harbor creates ideal conditions for biological growth. Salt air from the Long Island Sound accelerates deterioration of exterior surfaces.
We handle house washing using soft wash techniques that kill mold and mildew without damaging siding or trim. Driveway and walkway cleaning removes oil stains, tire marks, and embedded dirt that makes concrete look permanently gray.
Deck and patio restoration brings back the original color of wood and composite materials. We also clean fences, outdoor furniture, and even playground equipment. Many Glen Cove homeowners discover they need minor masonry repairs after cleaning – we handle those too.
The goal is simple: one company that understands your property’s needs and handles everything professionally.
Most Glen Cove homes need power washing every 12-18 months due to our humid climate. Properties with significant tree cover or north-facing surfaces may need cleaning annually because these areas stay damp longer and develop mold faster.
If you notice black streaks on siding, green discoloration on concrete, or musty odors around your home, it’s time for professional cleaning. Waiting too long allows biological growth to penetrate deeper into surfaces, making removal more difficult and potentially requiring replacement of affected materials.
Regular power washing isn’t just about appearance – it prevents costly repairs by removing contaminants that cause premature deterioration of paint, siding, and concrete.
Professional power washing won’t damage your property when done correctly. We use soft washing techniques for delicate surfaces like vinyl siding, painted wood, and stucco. This means lower pressure combined with specialized cleaning solutions that do the heavy lifting.
Before starting any job, we protect your landscaping by thoroughly watering plants and covering sensitive areas. Our cleaning solutions are biodegradable and safe for grass, flowers, and shrubs when properly diluted.
The key is using the right pressure for each surface. Concrete can handle high pressure, but siding requires a gentler approach. We adjust our equipment and techniques based on what we’re cleaning, which is why experience matters in this business.
Power washing uses heated water while pressure washing uses cold water from your regular hose connection. The heat makes power washing more effective for removing stubborn stains, grease, and embedded dirt.
For most Glen Cove homes, we use a combination approach. Hot water power washing works best for oil-stained driveways, heavily soiled concrete, and areas with significant grease buildup. Cold water pressure washing is perfect for routine house washing and maintenance cleaning.
The real difference comes down to matching the right technique to your specific needs. We assess each job and use whatever method will give you the best results without risking damage to your property.
A standard Glen Cove home takes 3-5 hours for complete exterior cleaning, including house washing, driveway, walkways, and deck or patio. Larger properties or homes with extensive staining may require a full day.
The timeline depends on several factors: property size, level of buildup, and which services you need. We don’t rush jobs because thorough cleaning requires proper dwell time for cleaning solutions to work effectively.
Weather affects scheduling too. We avoid working in high winds, extreme heat, or when rain is forecast within 24 hours. This ensures the best results and protects your landscaping from stress during the cleaning process.
Yes, we guarantee your satisfaction on every job. If you’re not happy with any aspect of our work, we’ll return to address the issue at no additional cost. This isn’t just company policy – it’s personal accountability.
We also guarantee that our cleaning won’t damage your property when you follow our simple post-cleaning care instructions. This includes avoiding foot traffic on treated surfaces for 24 hours and keeping pets away from recently cleaned areas until they’re completely dry.
Our three years serving Glen Cove homeowners have taught us that standing behind our work builds long-term relationships. Most of our business comes from referrals, which only happens when customers are genuinely satisfied with both the results and the service experience.
Remove or secure outdoor furniture, decorations, and anything that might get in the way or be damaged by water and cleaning solutions. Close all windows and doors, and make sure outdoor electrical outlets are covered or turned off at the breaker.
If you have delicate plants near the house, point them out to our crew. We’ll take extra care to protect them, but knowing about special concerns helps us plan better. Also, ensure we have access to water spigots and electrical outlets if needed.
The most important preparation is clearing access to all areas you want cleaned. We can move most outdoor furniture, but valuable or fragile items should be relocated beforehand. A quick walkthrough before we start ensures we’re both on the same page about what needs attention.
