Siding, walkways, rooftops, patios, and decks; mold and algae can appear on pretty much any exterior surface, marring your home’s street appeal. In Montgomery County’s humid climate, this organic matter is a real problem, and it can be really hard to get rid of. That’s why at High Pro Power Washing Service Inc., we don’t just spray and rinse; we use thoughtful, surface-specific strategies that target algae and mold where they live – and at their root. Find out how we handle the buildup the right way and help protect your home.

Why Mold and Algae Keep Coming Back (And How to Stop Them)

Mold and algae are more than just an eyesore; over time, they can truly compromise your property’s surfaces. These organic substances love moisture, and Montgomery County provides plenty of it. Algae usually presents as green, gray, or black streaks across siding or concrete. Mold, on the other hand, often looks like clusters of dark patches, especially in shaded or damp spots.

These troublesome organisms don’t just fade with sunlight or a quick rinse. They root into porous surfaces, making them harder to remove. Over time, they can even wear down the materials they cling to, which is why regular rinsing rarely solves the issue. Successfully combating the problem requires using strategies that go deeper to stop the growth from coming back.

Cleaning Solutions That Target Growth at the Source

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all chemicals. At High Pro Power Washing Service Inc., we carefully select solutions that are designed to break down algae and mold at the root. Each cleaning agent is matched to the surface it’s applied to, whether it’s vinyl siding, composite decking, or stone.

These solutions don’t just mask the stains; they treat the source. And because we work around landscaping, we use products that are biodegradable and safe for the surrounding areas when used correctly. It’s all about getting rid of the growth without harming what’s around it.

Soft Washing: The Smarter Choice for Delicate Surfaces

Power washing isn’t always the answer, especially when it comes to delicate materials, such as roof shingles, older siding, or painted surfaces. For these surfaces, soft washing is a great option. This low-pressure method combines a controlled spray of water with gentle yet effective cleaning solutions.

Soft washing works by treating the algae or mold instead of blasting it. It removes the growth while protecting the surface underneath. It’s a great solution for cleaning siding, fencing, and rooftops without risking any damage.

How We Handle Stubborn Algae That Just Won’t Budge

For those truly stubborn algae stains that seem determined to stay put, High Pro Power Washing Service Inc. employs a strategic two-pronged approach. First, we apply a specialized pre-treatment solution that loosens algae’s grip on the surface, making it easier to remove.

Following this crucial pre-treatment, our team uses power washing to blast it away. This targeted approach effectively eliminates the algae, revealing a clean and rejuvenated surface. It’s this meticulous attention to detail that sets High Pro Power Washing Service Inc. apart in Montgomery County.

Why Regular Algae Cleaning is a Worthwhile Investment

Many homeowners let algae go for a while, but waiting too long to address it usually means more buildup, deeper and more set-in stains, and an increased risk of surface wear. Regular exterior algae cleaning doesn’t just restore the look of your home’s exterior; it also protects it from long-term damage.

Keeping up with cleanings helps maintain the life of your outdoor surfaces. It also means fewer deep cleanings and repairs later on. Plus, scheduling regular professional cleanings with High Pro Power Washing means that you’ll have one less task on your to-do list.
