Why Your Pinellas County Home Needs Professional House Washing
Florida is one of the toughest environments for home exteriors in the entire country. Pinellas County homes face constant assault from humidity, rain, heat, and organic growth. Here's what builds up on your house:
Mold and Mildew - Black streaks and dark patches on your siding aren't just ugly. Mold and mildew eat into paint and can work their way into your home's structure. Pinellas County's 74% average humidity creates perfect growing conditions.
Algae - Green algae spreads across north-facing walls, shaded areas, and anywhere that stays damp. It holds moisture against your siding and accelerates deterioration.
Dirt and Pollution - Road dust, exhaust particles, and airborne debris stick to your home's exterior. Florida's frequent rain doesn't wash it off. Instead, rain splashes dirt up from the ground and drives particles deeper into porous surfaces.
Salt Air - If you live near the Gulf or Tampa Bay, salt spray coats your home constantly. Salt corrodes metal fixtures, damages paint, and leaves a hazy film on everything.
Pollen and Organic Debris - Oak pollen in spring coats everything yellow-green. Tree sap, spider webs, insect nests, and bird droppings add to the mess.
Left alone, these contaminants don't just look bad. They cause permanent staining, paint failure, wood rot, and structural damage. Regular house washing removes them before they cause expensive problems.
Our House Washing Process
Cool Breeze uses a soft wash method for house washing. This is different from standard pressure washing, and it's the only safe way to clean most home exteriors.
What Is Soft Wash House Cleaning?
Soft washing combines low-pressure water with professional cleaning solutions to remove dirt and organic growth. High-pressure washing can damage siding, strip paint, force water behind walls, and void manufacturer warranties. Soft washing cleans just as effectively without those risks.
How We Clean Your House
Step 1: Pre-Inspection - We walk around your home and note the exterior material, condition, and any areas needing special attention. We check for loose siding, damaged caulking, or other issues.
Step 2: Protect Landscaping - We wet down plants, shrubs, and grass around your home. Our cleaning solutions are eco-friendly, but we take extra precautions to protect your landscaping.
Step 3: Apply Cleaning Solution - We apply our professional-grade cleaning solution to your home's exterior. This solution kills mold, mildew, and algae at the root, not just on the surface.
Step 4: Dwell Time - The solution works for several minutes, breaking down organic growth and loosening dirt.
Step 5: Low-Pressure Rinse - We rinse your entire home using safe, low pressure. This removes all dirt, dead organic matter, and cleaning solution.
Step 6: Final Inspection - We check every wall, soffit, and fascia to make sure your home is completely clean.
Exterior Materials We Clean
Our soft wash house cleaning works on all common exterior materials found in Pinellas County:
Stucco - The most common exterior in Florida. Stucco is porous and traps dirt and mold. We clean it thoroughly without damaging the texture.
Vinyl Siding - Vinyl looks great when clean but shows every bit of mold and dirt. Soft washing restores the original color.
Painted Wood - We clean painted surfaces without stripping or fading the paint.
Brick - Brick homes collect mold in the mortar joints. We clean brick safely without damaging the mortar.
Fiber Cement (Hardie Board) - Popular in newer homes. We use appropriate methods for this material.
Aluminum Siding - Common in older Pinellas County homes. We remove oxidation and restore the finish.
House Washing Prices in Pinellas County
House washing costs depend on your home's size, stories, and current condition.

House Washing vs. DIY: Why Professional Matters
You can rent a pressure washer from the hardware store for about $75-100 per day. But here's why that's usually a bad idea for house washing:
Risk of Damage
Pressure washers powerful enough to clean effectively are also powerful enough to destroy your siding, strip paint, gouge wood, crack stucco, and force water behind your walls. Water intrusion causes mold inside your walls, which is far more expensive to fix than hiring a professional in the first place.
Incomplete Results
Consumer pressure washers don't have the flow rate or cleaning power to remove mold at the root. You'll knock down surface growth, but it comes back in weeks. Professional soft wash treatments kill organisms completely, so results last 12-18 months.
Safety Concerns
Pressure washer wands kick back hard. Ladders and pressure washers don't mix safely. Professional crews have training and equipment to work safely at heights.
Time and Hassle
What takes us 1-2 hours will take you all day, with inferior results. Factor in pickup, return, and cleanup of the rental equipment, and professional service starts looking like a bargain.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do house washing services cost in Pinellas County?
House washing in Pinellas County typically costs $200-$500 depending on your home's size and condition. We provide free estimates with exact pricing for your specific home.
Is soft washing safe for my house?
Yes. Soft washing is the safest way to clean most home exteriors. We use low pressure combined with cleaning solutions that do the work, not brute force. This method is safe for stucco, vinyl, wood, brick, and painted surfaces. High-pressure washing, on the other hand, can damage these materials.
How often should I get house washing services?
Most Pinellas County homes benefit from professional washing every 12-18 months. Shaded homes, waterfront properties, or homes with persistent mold issues may need washing every 6-12 months. Regular maintenance prevents permanent staining and keeps your home looking great year-round.
Will house washing remove all the mold on my siding?
Yes. Our soft wash cleaning solution kills mold, mildew, and algae at the root, then we rinse it all away. Unlike water-only pressure washing, our treatment prevents rapid regrowth. Most homes stay clean for 12-18 months after professional soft washing.
Do I need to be home during house washing?
No. As long as we have access to water and the areas being cleaned, you don't need to be present. We'll contact you before and after the service. Many customers schedule house washing while they're at work.
Is your cleaning solution safe for plants and pets?
Yes. We use eco-friendly cleaning solutions and take precautions to protect your landscaping. We pre-wet plants before cleaning and rinse them thoroughly afterward. Keep pets inside during the service and until surfaces dry, which usually takes about an hour.
Can you wash my house before I paint it?
Absolutely. In fact, we recommend it. Paint adheres better to clean surfaces, and you'll get a better-looking, longer-lasting paint job. Many painting contractors require pressure washing before they'll start work. Schedule house washing at least 24-48 hours before painting to allow surfaces to dry completely.
Do you wash two-story houses?
Yes. We have equipment to safely clean homes of any height. Two-story homes typically cost more due to additional time and equipment needed, but we handle them regularly throughout Pinellas County.
