Looking for exterior mold & mildew removal for wood siding in your area? We look at the surface first, choose the right method and pressure for it, and give you a price before any work starts. For wood siding, that means soft wash.

Method and pressure

Soft washCleaning method
Soft wash, typically under 500 PSI; up to about 1,000 PSI with a wide tip for bare wood prepPressure

Cleaning solution: A mild house-wash mix; an oxygen-based cleaner when the wood will be stained.

Caring for wood siding

Painted and stained wood siding grows mildew and loses its finish faster on the shaded and weather-facing sides. A soft wash cleans it without raising the grain, and is the usual first step before repainting or restaining.

Avoid: High pressure that raises fibers, gouges the wood or strips sound paint unevenly.

How often: Every 1-2 years, and before every repaint.
