Why Seattle Siding Turns Green — and How We Fix It Safely

Seattle's damp, shaded climate is perfect for algae, mildew, and moss to take hold on the outside of your home. That green film and those black vertical streaks aren't just dirt — they're living growth that spreads, holds moisture against your siding, and makes even a well-kept house look tired. A garden hose won't touch it, and blasting it with high pressure can crack siding, force water behind panels, and strip paint.

If you're searching for house washing near me, soft washing, or exterior house cleaning in Seattle, cleanNow uses a low-pressure soft-wash process with the right cleaning solution to kill the growth at the root and rinse it away gently. The result is bright, even siding — and a clean that lasts far longer than a quick rinse, because the algae is actually treated, not just knocked loose.

Why It Matters

Soft Wash, Not High Pressure

Your siding should be cleaned, not blasted. Here's the difference.

water_drop

Low pressure, smart solution

We apply a professional cleaning solution that kills algae and mildew, then rinse at low pressure. The chemistry does the work — not brute force — so nothing gets forced behind your siding.

Cleaner that lasts longer

Because the growth is treated at the root instead of just knocked off the surface, soft-washed siding stays clean far longer than a high-pressure rinse — often a year or more.

House Washing FAQ

How much does house washing cost in Seattle? expand_more
A single-story home starts at $255 and a two-story home at $395. The final price depends on square footage, height, siding type, and how much algae or mildew has built up. Bundling with driveway or gutter cleaning takes 10% off both — send your address for an exact quote.
What is soft washing, and why do you use it? expand_more
Soft washing uses low pressure plus a professional cleaning solution to kill algae, mildew, and mold, then gently rinse it away. It's the method siding manufacturers recommend, because high pressure can crack panels, strip paint, and force water behind the siding.
Will house washing damage my siding or plants? expand_more
No. Low pressure protects your siding, and we pre-wet and rinse landscaping so plants are protected. Our solution breaks down safely after rinsing.
How long does the clean stay looking good? expand_more
Because we treat the algae at the root instead of just rinsing the surface, most homes stay noticeably cleaner for a year or more, depending on shade and surroundings.
Can you reach a two- or three-story home? expand_more
Yes. Soft washing is designed to clean upper stories safely from the ground, so we can reach high siding, soffits, and gables without risky ladder work.
Do I need to be home? expand_more
Not always. As long as we have access to the exterior and a water source, it can often be arranged in advance. For a first visit, it's best to be reachable.
