Why Our House Wash Outperforms the Rest
We don't just blast away dirt — we treat your home's exterior with a system that cleans deeper and lasts longer, without causing any damage.
Protects Paint & Materials
Our soft wash uses gentle pressure with eco-friendly solutions to safely dissolve mould, algae, and grime — without stripping paint or damaging weatherboards.
Eradicates Organic Growth
Our biocide treatment kills mould, mildew, and lichen at the root — not just the surface — so results last significantly longer than water-only washing.

Our 3-Step House Washing Process
Pre-Treatment
We apply eco-friendly biocide solutions to break down mould, algae, and organic growth before washing begins.
Soft Wash Clean
Using carefully calibrated pressure for your specific cladding, we flush away loosened grime and biological matter.
Post-Treatment & Rinse
A final rinse clears all residue, followed by an optional protective post-treatment to delay future growth.
House Washing Technical Standards
Strict operating procedures for property protection
Cleaning Agents
We apply biodegradable surfactants and sodium hypochlorite solution pre-diluted to under 1.5% active content to effectively eradicate moss and mould without degrading cladding.
Pressure Calibration
Soft wash water output is carefully calibrated under 500 PSI (pounds per square inch) to clean weatherboards, plaster, and joints without lifting paint or forcing water intrusion.
Environmental Stormwater Shielding
Wash procedures strictly comply with local environmental bylaws by pre-blocking or avoiding wash water runoff into freshwater stormwater pathways.
Pre-spray Site Walk
Technicians perform a safety check on power boxes, window seals, pet safety areas, and surrounding garden vegetation before starting.

Specify that keeping cladding surfaces clear of dirt and biological mould extends the service life of paint systems by 50% and is required to sustain coating product warranties.
WorkSafe New Zealand
Guidelines for safe working at heights dictate mandatory fall-prevention measures, certified ladder attachments, or elevated work platforms for multi-storey residential cladding cleaning.
