Towson’s established neighbourhoods have serious tree canopy, and that canopy is the single biggest reason houses here go green. Constant shade means siding, roofs and north walls stay damp for most of the year, and the growth takes hold far faster than it would on an open lot. Big oaks also drop tannin, which runs down siding and decks as a brown stain that people mistake for dirt.
The housing stock adds to it. Towson colonials are typically two and three storeys with painted trim, dormers and deep overhangs, so the worst growth sits exactly where a ladder is least useful. We reach those upper sections properly rather than cleaning what is easy and leaving the rest.
They are two different jobs, and using the wrong one is how siding gets wrecked. Pressure washing uses force and belongs on hard surfaces — concrete, brick and pavers. Soft washing uses very low pressure plus a cleaning solution that kills mold, mildew and algae at the root, and that is what belongs on siding, stucco and roofs.
The green-black film on the shaded side of a house is organic growth, not dirt. Blast it with pressure and you knock off the surface, drive water behind the siding, and it grows back within months because the roots survived. Soft washing removes it properly and it stays gone far longer. On asphalt shingles, pressure washing strips the granules and can void the roof warranty outright, so a roof only ever gets soft washed.
Book a house wash with us and you get soft washing on the siding with appropriate pressure on the concrete, decided surface by surface. Knowing which is which is our job, not yours.
Local. Towson is a straight run for us down Route 140 to the Beltway. We are not a franchise driving out for the day.
139+ five-star reviews. A straight 5.0 across every job, window cleaning and exterior washing alike.
Insured, and careful with your property. We protect plantings, close up before we start and rinse everything down at the end. No dead shrubs, no soap film left on the glass.
One crew for the whole exterior. Plenty of Towson customers have us wash the house and clean the windows in Towson on the same visit — cheaper than two companies and done in one morning.
Most Towson house washes run $350 to $650, since homes here tend to be larger and taller than the county average. Driveways usually run $150 to $300. Send a photo or your address and we will text you an exact price — no site visit needed in most cases.
It can. High pressure cracks vinyl, forces water behind panels and strips paint, which is why we soft wash siding instead. Low pressure and the right solution cleans better and does no harm.
Not quickly, no. Pressure washing only knocks off the surface, which is why it returns in months. Soft washing kills the growth at the root, so even under heavy Towson tree cover you should get a year or two before it needs doing again.
Every one to two years for most homes. Maryland humidity feeds mold and algae, and Towson’s tree canopy keeps roofs and north walls damp for most of the year. If you can see green on the siding, it is time.
Yes. Those streaks are roof algae and they respond to soft washing. We never put a pressure washer on shingles — it strips the protective granules and can void the manufacturer warranty.
