Exterior Mold & Mildew Removal for Stucco is one of the jobs we do most often in your area. Typical jobs cost $250-$700, and you approve the price before we begin. On stucco, the method we use is soft wash.
How we clean it
Cleaning solution: A diluted house-wash solution with surfactant, given time to dwell, then a gentle rinse.
Caring for stucco
Traditional stucco is porous and holds moisture, which is why it streaks green and black in humid and shaded spots. Hairline cracks are common, and high pressure can force water into them or break off the finish coat.
Avoid: High pressure, which can etch the texture, blow out patches and push water behind the wall.
How often: Every 1-2 years.
